The customer is a building materials company based in Córdoba, supplying local construction companies, brick distributors, and residential developers. Before investing in AAC, their main product line included concrete blocks and precast items.

Customer Goals

Enter Argentina’s growing AAC market
Reduce labor dependency
Improve product quality consistency
Supply multiple provinces with a medium-scale plant
Produce cost-effective AAC blocks for housing projects

The customer initially compared suppliers from Germany, Turkey, and China. After technical evaluations and online factory inspections, they chose our solution due to high automation, strong cutting precision, fast installation support, and competitive investment cost.

Our Solution- 160,000 m³/Year AAC Block Plant Exported to Argentina

After evaluating the customer’s land size (18,500 m²), electricity cost, local market demand, budget, and long-term expansion plan, our engineering team recommended a 160,000 m³/year AAC production line.

Why This Capacity Is Ideal for Argentina

Matches regional demand in Córdoba, Santa Fe & Buenos Aires
Reasonable investment cost: USD 1.2–2.3 million
Low operational risk compared to large plants
Easy for newcomers to scale gradually
Suitable for both local projects and distribution

Customized Design for Argentina

The following local adaptations were included:

1. Block sizes tailored to Argentinian developers

10×20×60 cm
12.5×20×60 cm
20×20×60 cm
25×20×60 cm

2. Density classes (AAC 500 / AAC 600)
Suitable for both load-bearing and non-load-bearing walls.

3. Climate-adapted curing system
Argentina has hot summers and mild winters, so we optimized the pre-curing environment and steam system.

4. Spanish-language control interface
To help local operators use the machine more easily.

Key Advantages of AAC Block Plant Exported to Argentina

✓ High Cutting Accuracy

Our advanced cutting machine ensures:

Accuracy within ±1–1.5 mm
Smooth surfaces
Low waste rate (<3%)
Faster installation on construction sites

This increases competitiveness in Argentina’s cost-sensitive construction industry.

✓ Fully Automatic Operation

Full automation reduces labor needs from 20+ workers (manual production) to 8–10 workers per shift.

Includes:

Automatic batching
Automatic pouring
Automatic demolding & tilting
Automatic cutting
Automatic autoclaving
Automatic packaging

✓ Low Energy Consumption

Designed to reduce fuel usage through:

Optimized steam recycling
High-efficiency boiler system
Intelligent pressure control

This is crucial because industrial gas prices in Argentina fluctuate.

✓ Durable, Long-Life Equipment

All main components:

Anti-rust coating
Reinforced steel structure
High-temperature resistant parts

Guaranteed lifespan: 25–30 years.

✓ Reduced Production Costs

AAC block production cost in Argentina: USD 40–55/m³
Market price: USD 80–110/m³
→ Excellent return on investment.
