Ultimate solution for Brick work and Plastering

Fabtech Sterling Building Technologies Pvt. Ltd. is positioned

as the technical leader for providing innovative building

solutions in construction & material space. FABTECH

STERLING BUILDING TECHNOLOGIES PVT. LTD. offers a

full range of load bearing and infill wall systems for

residential , commercial and industrial applications.Its most

premium offerings include Plaswall, Plasmolite and

Foamolite a range of building systems that deliver on SPEED,

STRENGTH and SAVINGS. These products have found

strong acceptability in Philippines, Australia, Vietnam,

Qatar, India and are spreading fast in Middle East and

Africa.

Plasmolite saves you from the hassles of brickwork, hollow-

block and plastering. It is very well integrated with

conventional column and beam and Pre-engineered

buildings. Its erection takes just one-third of the time when

compared to conventional brickwork and plastering which

results in quicker installation and lesser dependency on skilled

labor. It offers savings in raw material (no gravel) and steel

reinforcement in high rise buildings. Plasmolite is made from

mixing stable foam to slurry of cement, sand/flyash. This action

incorporates small enclosed air bubbles within the mortar

thereby making it lighter and possessing special properties

such as low thermal conductivity and high fire resistance. Its

density ranges from 600kg/m3 to1000kg/m3, allowing it to be

used in a variety of applications such as residential high rises,

commercial and industrial. As a result, we can witness

substantial weight reduction (dead-load), improved fire rating

and maximum sound absorption.

The ingredients for the production of

Plasmolite are cement, sand/flyash,

water and foam which is formed in

specifically designed foam generator. The

mix of cement, sand/flyash, water and

foam results in a highly flow-able mix that

is easy to manage and use. It is possible to

produce different grades of concrete by

altering the amount of Plasmolite foam

to the mix. It is possible to produce foam

concrete with wide range of densities,

each having different properties. Lighter

mixes are generally with cement, water

and foam, only providing lower strengths,

but higher insulation parameters. Higher

densities offer more strength at the cost of

larger thermal transmission.

Thermal Wall Insulation increasingly turns

to be the most important issue in the

planning and construction of buildings.

The best solution is, to incorporate thermal

insulation in the mix of a concrete like air

cured Plasmolite CLC. Plasmolite

technology has five times the thermal

resistance of conventional concrete,

which translates to high energy efficient

buildings and reduced building running

costs. The air-embedded in the

Plasmolite CLC is also instrumental for

the high fire-rating. In 600-1000 kg/m

density, a 137-162 mm thick wall has a

fire endurance upto 3 hours. Sound is

experienced as airborne or footfall

(impact). Plasmolite CLC also offers

superior sound insulation.

Wall thickness can be customized depending on the volume of work

FCB ( fibre cement Board) boards are environment friendly building material and are manufactured

under a strict 'Green Policy' using eco-friendly manufacturing processes. The production process used

for FCB uses pulp from farmed trees only. Under no circumstances, natural forests are decimated with

these raw materials.

Mentioned below are few ways towards greener construction in Plasmolite :

Steam produced in heating process of FCB is re-used in the product curing process.

Waste materials from burning rice husk are recycled into the product.

Water is recycled into vast 'ponds' and reused in the product manufacturing process.

There is no CFS (cold formed steel) in the polystyrene (in case of thermal panels).

HIMI (spacer) is again a green product made from 100% recycled plastic.

bulk of fly ash generated, many hundred million tons a year, is disposed of in slurry ponds or

reservoirs, causing environmental problems. Therefore, most nations encourage increased use of fly

ash. Using fly ash to make building products has several beneficial impacts on the environment,

some of which include: saving energy, reducing solid waste disposal, reducing air pollution and

greenhouse gas, and mitigating global warming. In addition, the design's flexibility and adaptability

lend itself to a broad range of other applications.

Fly ash is a coal combustion residue. At present, less than 50% of fly ash in the world is used; the
