1 Wall Panels Faster Construction Easy to Install Superior Fire Resistance High Thermal Insulation Significant Energy Savings Water Resistant Precast Lightweight

2 Wall Panels Autoclaved Aerated Concrete (AAC) Xella AAC Texas, Inc., located in San Antonio and San Juan, Texas, distributes lightweight steelreinforced, precast wall panel that delivers a fast and efficient building material for solid wall construction. These vertical and horizontal wall panels, which can be installed as exterior non-load bearing walls in commercial applications or as firewalls, are intended to respond to today s design challenges for increased energy efficiency, fire safety, and sound transmission, as well as increased concern over construction safety and resultant libilities. A consequence, exciting new design applications using Xella Texas s AAC, are almost unlimited. These building components are made of autoclaved aerated concrete (AAC), a result of German research and technological advanced. Hebel Wall Panels are designed to increase the speed of commercial, industrial and institutional construction and are a fast and efficient alternative to tilt wall construction. The panels weigh 1/4 to 1/5 as much as ordinary concrete and can be safely installed with smaller and less costly construction cranes. Hebel Wall Panels can also be installed in cold or hot weather, avoiding the major delays and cost overruns that plague tilt wall construction. Hebel Wall Panels are custommanufactured in avariety of lengths and thicknesses to fit your individual requirements. They offer a true design and cost advantage by requiring only a single coat of stucco or acrylic finish. The Hebel Wall Panels can be covered with common textures or a variety of exciting, new design-oriented textures and stucco finishes. Design your next commercial project with AAC Wall Panels from Xella AAC Texas, Inc. PRODUCT Autoclaved Aerated Concrete (AAC), a resul t of German technology is a mixture of finely-ground quartz sand and binding material, permeated with pores and then steam cured. The result is an extremely lightweight, insulating material of a high strength category.
