GRIHA Certification in India: A Step Towards Sustainable Living

As India strides toward a greener and more sustainable future, the construction and real estate sectors are embracing eco-friendly practices to minimize their environmental impact. One of the most significant steps in this direction is the GRIHA Certification —India’s very own green building rating system. But what exactly is GRIHA, and why is it gaining momentum in India's sustainable development journey? Let's dive in.

Fusion AAC Block is member of IGBC: Building a Greener India Together

In today’s world, sustainable living is no longer a choice—it’s a necessity. As India continues to develop rapidly, the construction industry has a pivotal role to play in ensuring that growth happens responsibly, with minimal impact on the environment. This is where the Indian Green Building Council (IGBC) steps in, and we at Fusion AAC Blocks are proud to be a part of this green revolution.Together, we aim to redefine construction standards by promoting smarter, cleaner, and greener alternatives. At Fusion AAC Blocks, We believe that every building constructed today should benefit generations tomorrow.

AAC blocks Introduction

The AAC blocks (Autoclaved Aerated Concrete) material was developed in 1924 in Sweden. It has become one of the most used building materials in Europe and is rapidly growing in many other countries worldwide. Aerated block machine/arc machinery/automatic block machine is available in the whole world.

Autoclaved Aerated Concrete ((AAC) blocks) is a lightweight, load-bearing, high-insulating, durable building product produced in a wide range of sizes and strengths.

AAC Blocks Applications

In the manufacture of clay bricks, the topsoil is depleted and natural resources are eroded, resulting in ecological imbalances. But by utilizing fly ash which is the waste material generated by thermal power stations, we will be saving the natural resources on the one hand and putting the industrial waste into productive use.

This makes #AACBlocks one of the best examples of a truly “green product”, in every sense of the term. Sand is another alternative to fly ash for manufacturing AAC Blocks. However, sand cannot be recycled like fly ash and therefore, manufacturing #AACBlocks using sand cannot be considered a green process and the resultant product a green product.

AAC Blocks Manufacturing Flow Process Chart

AAC is also known as Autoclaved Aerated concrete. It is lightweight concrete. AAC Blocks have been widely using across the world. AAC Blocks are made by mixing Portland cement, lime, fly ash, water, and aluminum powder; the final mixture is poured into moulds. The reaction between aluminum and lime causes microscopic hydrogen bubbles to form lower-density concrete by expanding it. After evaporation of the hydrogen and initial setting, aerated concrete is cut into required sizes and cured by steam-curing in a pressurized chamber (an autoclave) or low pressurized steam chambers. The result is a non-toxic, high strength, lightweight, airtight material that can be used for all walling applications. AAC Blocks are green building material that generates no pollutants or hazardous waste during the manufacturing process.
