Products

A full, comprehensive range of AIRTEC blocks are offered with various densities, thermal values and dimensions. There are blocks for walls, foundations, block and beam floors and coursing bricks.
 
All AIRTEC products are manufactured to the latest European standards, which by definition mean that they exceed the old British standards in terms of performance and tolerance.

WALL BLOCKS

Airtec wall blocks are manufactured to the traditional coursing height of 215mm and to a length of 620mm. They are offered in a range of thicknesses from 75mm to 215mm all with a dimensional accuracy suitable for both general purpose and thin-joint mortar construction. They are available in 4 strength-density grades: 2.9N/mm² (460kg/m³), 3.6N/mm² (530 and 600kg/m³) and 7.3N/mm² (730kg/m³).
 
 
 
 
 
  

FOUNDATION BLOCKS

Airtec Foundation blocks are designed for use below ground level to support cavity or solid walls. They are available as either 140mm or 215mm course height in widths of 260, 275, 300 and 350mm. All Foundation blocks are supplied with hand-holds to assist with safe and comfortable manual handling.

 

  
 
 
AIRTEC FOUNDATION 215 blocks (215mm course height) are available in 2 grades, 3.6N/mm² (530kg/m³) and 7.3N/mm² (730kg/m³). Block weights exceed the recommended one-person lifting weight of 20kg and therefore will require appropriate handling techniques to comply with manual handling regulations. The 7.3N grade is made to order and is not a general stock item.
 
 
  
 

BRICKETTES (coursing units)

Airtec BRICKETTES are for use as coursing bricks in both load-bearing and non-load-bearing walls. They allow the builder to complete entire walls without the need to use a different material which could result in cold-bridging and movement problems associated with dissimilar materials in contact with one another.
 
 
  
 

LARGE-FORMAT BLOCKS - WALL & FLOORING  

Airtec LARGE FORMAT BLOCKS are designed for use in block and beam flooring systems and as ‘jumbo’ size blocks for conventional and thin-joint walls.
 
In floors they maximise the speed of laying, minimise manual handling risks and achieve the best possible thermal insulation. The dimensions allow for a choice of two beam-spacing centre widths of 515mm (when laid 430mm wide) or 705mm (when laid 620mm wide). As wall blocks they allow speedy and efficient construction and minimize mortar joints thus increasing thermal efficiency, reducing U-Values and improving air-tightness.
 
Airtec LARGE FORMAT blocks can be easily cut, drilled and bored to accommodate services; they can accommodate under-floor heating systems and due to the inherent thermal insulation of Airtec minimizes the amount of supplementary insulation needed to achieve the required thermal values.
 

 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
  
 

Please note:
The strength grades under the new European standards as of April 2006 are 2.9N, 3.6N and 7.3N; these replace the previous British Standard categories of 2.8N, 4.0N and 7.0N.
