What is AAC?

We are in the 3rd Millennium! (Is your building project?)

Why build a new house using conventional methods and materials, when a less expensive and technologically advanced material is available?

Autoclaved Aerated Concrete (AAC) has been used in Europe, with outstanding results, longer than CMU blocks have been used in Hawaii. This exceptional building material is finally available here in Hawaii, along with construction industry experts at MHE International who have the knowledge, skills, and AAC-specific training to take your new home into the 21st century!

AAC is Leeds Certified and hypo-allergenic with superior structural properties, yielding unlimited design configurations with beautiful styles. It is easy to use, economical, and requires minimal long-term maintenance.

Advantages of AAC:
GREEN BUILDING MATERIAL

Termite proof
Fire proof
Mildew proof
Shatter proof
Impact absorbent/bullet proof
Water proof
Earth quake resistant
Heat resistant
Excellent thermal insulator
Excellent sound deadener/insulator
Non-allergic
Non-combustible

Non-decaying
Light weight – floats in water
No sprinkler system required once structure is complete
No hurricane ties needed
Same material used for walls, partition walls, floors and roofing
Easy workability – cutting, drilling, milling, nailing, screwing
Completed structures have exceptional strength
Less expensive than conventional alternative materials
Simplifies the design and building process
Quicker/less labor intensive during construction than the conventional alternatives

The above features contribute to significant savings with AAC, when compared to construction projects utilizing conventional alternatives:

Lower material purchase costs
Lower transportation costs
Lower erection costs
No sprinkler system costs (if applicable)

No hurricane tie costs
No insulation costs due to AAC’s superior thermal/sound insulating qualities

And, upon completion, the savings continue:

AAC buildings require very minimal maintenance
Superior, energy-saving performance
Lower AC bills/electrical costs - AC installation may be unnecessary

Lower insurance premiums than conventional buildings
No tenting and other extermination costs

Disadvantages:
It is not FREE :-)
