Giant production facilities, factories, and warehouses, which are the heart of the industrial and logistics sectors, require special engineering solutions during their construction. In such mega projects, the height of the walls, their resistance to external factors, and the energy efficiency of the facility are the most critical elements. The innovative building elements brand of the Ertaş Group, Blok Bims, adds speed, safety, and flawless insulation to the wall masonry processes of large-scale commercial buildings with its lightweight building blocks complying with industrial standards.
Maximum Strength and Lightness in High Walls
In industrial buildings such as factories and warehouses, high ceilings and gable walls are generally preferred to increase the interior volume. The material to be used on these large surfaces must be both resistant to wind loads and not add excessive weight to the main steel or reinforced concrete frame of the building. Produced from volcanic pumice with a very low specific gravity, lightweight pumice block products maintain the static balance of the building even in massive walls, minimizing the risk of collapse by allowing the structure to flex during an earthquake.
Uninterrupted Climate Control for Cold Storage and Production Facilities
Keeping the indoor temperature constant is of vital importance in facilities that produce food, medicine, or sensitive technology. Providing high thermal resistance thanks to the natural porous structure of pumice, Blok Bims cuts the heat transfer with the outside almost like a knife in the construction of industrial ovens or cold storage facilities. This superior insulation capacity provides a massive saving in the industrial energy (HVAC) costs that businesses spend to heat or cool giant areas.
Why Should You Choose Blok Bims in Your Industrial Projects?
- Fast Construction Site Progress: Thanks to the lightness and easy workability of large-sized blocks, thousands of square meters of factory walls can be built in a much shorter time with low labor costs.
- Industrial Fire Safety: A permanent shield that prevents the spread of fire with its non-combustible (Class A1) structure in production facilities containing chemicals or high heat.
- Acoustic Barrier Against Machine Noise: Sound insulation that prevents noise pollution both in office sections and surrounding buildings by damping the sounds of heavy machinery and production lines inside the factory.
Raise your walls with Blok Bims so as not to compromise on static safety and insulation while racing against time in the construction of your mega projects. Lay the foundations that lighten the load of the industry with the assurance of the Ertaş Group.
