Hebel AAC Panels

Yes. Hebel is a range of autoclaved aerated concrete building products that includes steel-reinforced AAC panels. Hebel products are used across wall, flooring, fencing and specialist building applications.

Hebel is CSR’s autoclaved aerated concrete building system range. AAC is a lightweight concrete material containing small air pockets, giving it a much lower density than conventional concrete while retaining useful structural, thermal, acoustic and fire-performance properties.

An AAC panel is a lightweight concrete building panel manufactured from autoclaved aerated concrete. Steel reinforcement is commonly incorporated into structural panels, allowing AAC to be used across wall, floor and other building systems.

An aerated concrete panel is another name commonly used for an autoclaved aerated concrete or AAC panel. The concrete contains a cellular structure of small air pockets, making it considerably lighter than conventional dense concrete.

An AAC wall is a building system using AAC panels or blocks together with specified framing, brackets, fixings, joints, insulation, coatings and other components. AAC walls are commonly used for external facades, boundary walls and intertenancy walls.

Hebel panels are used for external walls, rendered facades, intertenancy and party walls, boundary walls, flooring, fencing, apartment facades, corridor and shaft walls and other residential and commercial applications.

The appropriate Hebel product and system depends on the particular project and performance requirements.

Hebel PowerPanel50 is a 50mm thick steel-reinforced AAC panel designed for houses and low-rise multi-residential construction. It can be used in systems including external walls, intertenancy walls and dual zero boundary walls.

Hebel PowerPanelXL is a 75mm thick reinforced AAC panel used in residential and low-rise multi-residential wall systems, including external walls, boundary walls and intertenancy walls.

Hebel PowerPanel50 panels are 50mm thick and 600mm wide. Common lengths include 2400mm, 2550mm, 2700mm, 2850mm and 3000mm.

Contact Dahlsens for current stocked sizes and availability.

Hebel PowerFloor is a reinforced tongue-and-groove AAC flooring system designed for installation over floor joists. It provides a more solid underfoot feel than lightweight sheet flooring together with useful thermal and acoustic performance.

Yes. Hebel manufactures dedicated AAC flooring products including PowerFloor for residential construction and PowerFloor+ for selected apartment and commercial applications.

Wall panels should not be substituted for dedicated flooring products. Always use the specified Hebel flooring system.

Yes. Hebel AAC is a non-combustible material. The fire-resistance performance of an individual wall or floor depends on the complete Hebel system, application and construction details.

Refer to the appropriate current Hebel technical documentation when fire performance is required.

Yes. Hebel external wall panels are commonly finished using compatible render and coating systems, allowing builders to create smooth or textured architectural facades in a wide range of colours.

Yes. External walls are one of the main residential applications for Hebel. PowerPanel50 and PowerPanelXL are both used in external wall systems for houses and low-rise multi-residential construction.

Yes. Hebel PowerPanel systems are used for intertenancy or party walls between adjoining dwellings such as townhouses and duplexes.

These systems can provide fire and acoustic separation while using relatively narrow wall construction.

Hebel offers systems suitable for boundary and dual zero boundary wall applications. The appropriate product and construction system depends on the project design and required fire and acoustic performance.

Hebel AAC is non-combustible and selected Hebel wall systems can be used in bushfire-prone construction, including systems suitable for high BAL requirements.

Always check the selected system against the project’s BAL assessment and current Hebel technical documentation.

AAC panels and bricks can both be used as external wall construction systems, but they are installed differently.

Traditional brick veneer uses individual masonry units laid on site, while AAC construction uses large-format lightweight panels fixed as part of a proprietary wall system.

AAC can provide faster installation and lower wall-system weight while delivering thermal, acoustic and fire-performance benefits. The best option depends on project design, cost, trades, appearance and performance requirements.

Large-format Hebel panels can significantly reduce the number of individual units that need to be installed compared with brickwork.

For example, Hebel states that one standard panel can replace approximately 75 traditional bricks, and its PowerPanelXL external wall system can be installed substantially faster than conventional brick veneer construction.

Actual installation time will depend on project conditions, design, installers and construction sequencing.

Yes. AAC is substantially lighter than conventional dense concrete. Hebel states its AAC panels can be up to 75% lighter than precast concrete, helping make transport and installation more efficient.

Yes. Hebel is made from autoclaved aerated concrete. Unlike conventional dense concrete, AAC contains millions of small air pockets that reduce its density and contribute to its thermal and acoustic properties.

Hebel states that its panel range includes Australian-made and imported products. PowerPanel50 is developed, tested and manufactured in Australia.

Imported Hebel products are manufactured to Australian standards and undergo Hebel’s quality testing requirements.

Hebel has CodeMark certification across selected building systems and applications. Because certification is system-specific, use the current certificate applicable to the particular Hebel product and application being constructed.

PowerPanel50 is a 50mm AAC panel designed to provide a slimmer and lightweight wall solution, while PowerPanelXL is a 75mm panel used across established external wall and intertenancy systems.

The right option depends on the wall application, performance requirements and specified Hebel system.

Hebel is a brand of AAC building products. AAC stands for autoclaved aerated concrete, which is the building material used to manufacture Hebel panels and blocks.

Other AAC brands available in Australia include Helix AAC and James Hardie Hardie™ Gravis™.

Both Hebel and Hardie Gravis use autoclaved aerated concrete technology, but they are separate proprietary product ranges with different panel options, certified building systems, accessories and technical specifications.

Hebel offers an extensive range covering residential, apartment, commercial, flooring, fencing and specialist applications, while Hardie Gravis provides James Hardie’s AAC wall, intertenancy and flooring solutions.

Talk to Dahlsens about the most appropriate AAC system for your project.

Hebel and Helix are both AAC panel brands available for building applications. Each uses its own proprietary panels, accessories, certification and installation systems.

Hebel has an extensive established range covering walls, flooring, fencing and commercial applications, while Helix offers lightweight 50mm and 75mm AAC wall panel systems for residential construction.

The best option will depend on specification, application, availability, required performance and project requirements.
