Building for the next generation

A dry home is one with outstanding water and air-tightness. Euroblock is the complete moisture protection improving indoor air quality and humidity control.

Future-proof your home and health with outstanding moisture protection

Moisture protection is now a primary consideration when it comes to building. Moisture from both external (mainly rain) and internal sources can cause damage to buildings. Moist walls can allow mould and bacteria to grow, cause surface discoloration and damage to plaster and wall finishes and may generally create an unhealthy environment.

Euroblock AAC has a structure of small air bubbles evenly distributed throughout the material. The size of these pores is such that absorption of water into Euroblock AAC by capillary action is minimal. This structure enables the material to breathe. It is vapor permeable, enabling atmospheric equilibrium to be maintained, but is, unlike standard concrete, impervious to water.

NB: All buildings must be protected from the influence of external water sources. A breathable plaster and paint system that will not restrict the “breathing” characteristics of Euroblock, is recommended.* *Please refer to plaster manufacturers specification data sheets.
