Two of the most popular lightweight wall materials on the market today are the EPS Cement Sandwich Wall Panel and AAC (Autoclaved Aerated Concrete) blocks, but there are clear differences in their performance. The biggest advantage of the EPS Cement Sandwich Wall Panel over AAC blocks is installation speed: one 3-meter long panel covers the same area as 12 separate AAC blocks, so you can finish a wall 3 times faster. The EPS core in the EPS Cement Sandwich Wall Panel gives it 2 times higher thermal insulation than a solid AAC block of the same thickness, so you get much better energy savings. AAC blocks are more porous and absorb water easily, which can lead to moisture damage and lower insulation performance over time, but the fully sealed cement surface of the EPS Cement Sandwich Wall Panel is completely waterproof. While AAC blocks still need full plastering after installation, the EPS Cement Sandwich Wall Panel surface is already smooth, so you can paint or tile directly after a simple skim coat. For most modern construction projects, the EPS Cement Sandwich Wall Panel delivers better overall performance, faster build times and lower total cost than traditional AAC blocks.
