Aircrete Europe is the distinct global leader in the AAC panel market. One of the most important innovations brought to the market by Aircrete is the Flat-Cake cutting technology which allows for the production of the largest variety of AAC products (including thin panels) with high dimensional accuracy and SUPER SMOOTH surfaces to minimize finishing requirements. The Aircrete brand is widely recognized for its quality and exceptional finishing and – as a result – products are sold against premium pricing.
Aircrete has the ultimate experience across all levels of the entire AAC value chain allowing to be a true technology partner for its clients. Based on our unique technology proposition, complemented by in-depth production process know-how and building application experience, we support our clients in every step of the process, whether it is a full turn-key greenfield project or just a technical consulting visit. Our vertically integrated business model allows us to truly understand your objectives and challenges and together implement solutions that make your business more successful.
We engaged Aircrete Europe for this project as they are known for being the go-to party for challenging projects with custom-made solutions. Their reputation with implementing complex modernization projects in combination with their design and thorough planning made us decide to engage them as our technology partner for this project. The fact that they beat their own installation planning and reduced the actual factory downtime with multiple days was a very big bonus and I am very happy about that.
Peter van Doorn - Plant manager, Xella, Netherlands
We are delighted to finance this loan as it allows Aircrete Europe to further scale up its sustainable and cost-effective Dutch solution for a traditionally energy-intensive industry. Given the size of the Uzbekistan market and the dominance of traditional bricks, this investment contributes to Uzbekistan in their achievement of the SDG’s while at the same time support Aircrete Europe in its growth potential.
Joost Oorthuizen -
Our project (with Aircrete Europe) is very ambitious. The total investment is €45 million. The total capacity of the future enterprise is 1.2 million cubic meters of AAC products per year. In almost every decision and every detail, this company will have no analogues in Europe. We are introducing Industry Standard 4.0 — this is the basis of technology that should provide the highest level of automation, productivity, as well as unique product quality.
Sergii Pylypenko -
In order to be a reliable supplier to our customers, reliability, efficiency and quality of our equipment is a core element in our strategy. For these projects we therefore engaged Aircrete Europe as the flat-cake technology specialist. In addition, their reputation of executing complex projects with limited downtime was a decisive factor as well. We are very satisfied with the end results.
Ion Secareanu - General Director, CELCO S.A., Romania
We seek investments in emerging markets that spur economic growth, create jobs and protect the environment. An Aircrete factory is a great example of a green, sustainable and attractive Dutch investment, whereby besides local job creation, Aircrete’s panel-based system is seen as a solution to the massive affordable housing deficits many countries are facing.
Arnold van Garderen - Senior Investment Officer, FMO NL Business
We engaged Aircrete Europe as we were looking for an experienced long-term technology partner that understands the process of AAC panel production.
Mike McCormick - General Manager, Aercon, USA
Aircrete Europe’s role as a partner, not just a machine supplier, was tremendously important in our upgrade project. They truly understood the challenges and objectives of us as an AAC producer and have managed to translate this very well into an innovative design and very efficient installation.
Mr. Yoo - Owner, SYC ALC, Korea
For this complex assignment, we were looking for a true technology partner, and not just an engineering firm or machine supplier. Through their in-house process know-how resulting from their involvement in their own plants in Latin America, combined with over 4 decades of engineering experience, Aircrete Europe was perfectly positioned to fulfil this role.
Stuart McQuillan - Head of Engineering, Forterra, United Kingdom
Our goal is to provide solutions to the building industry, not just panels, and to achieve that goal in our new plant, we needed to partner with solution providers who are agile in design whilst bringing proven base capability. We selected Aircrete Europe based on their proven panel technology and profound knowledge of AAC systems as well as dynamic engineering capabilities which allowed us to design making panels the way we want to make panels.
Steve Zebib - COO, CSR Hebel, Australia
Global markets are shifting towards a prefabricated construction solution. This push is very favourable for the AAC panel + steel frame building system. The super smooth flat-cake technology from Aircrete is globally recognized and best suited for AAC panel making.
Hiroaki Yanagida - Recognised Building Materials Expert, Japan
Thanks to Dutch technology, home construction in Argentina is becoming more sustainable and cost efficient for a very energy intensive industry. Given the size of the Argentine market and the dominance of traditional bricks, the growth potential for Brimax is huge.
Janet Nieboer - Head of FMO NL Business, The Netherlands
We were looking for the right partner that could assist us introducing high-quality AAC products in Argentina. From our Phase 1 assessment it turned out that AAC panels would fit in a wide variety of local building applications. As Aircrete Europe possesses both the relevant technology and process knowhow when it comes to producing AAC panels, we approached them for this project. The close cooperation between our people have been a determining factor in the success of building the plant and so far during the start-up phase.
Iván Brajcovic - Owner, Brayco, Argentina
I am very excited about the product quality that we are producing. The smooth surface of the product stands out from the rougher surface of competitive products and first feedback from our customers confirm their enthusiasm about this aspect as well.
Gabriel Pierre - CEO, Brimax, Argentina
The Aircrete Building System is a modular and complete building system from diverse AAC products, to offer a fast and efficient building solution that is customized to meet local market requirements. An AAC panel-based building system is almost completely made from prefabricated AAC elements and ensures that perfect standardization is achieved throughout the supply chain. As a result, the total cost per installed square meter is reduced significantly compared to conventional, more complex building systems. The Aircrete Building Systems is particularly used, and growing in demand, in housing development projects worldwide.
