Who We Are
WONDERING
what is fly ash
Fly ash is a byproduct from burning pulverized coal in electric power generating plants. During combustion, mineral impurities in the coal (clay, feldspar, quartz, and shale) fuse in suspension and float out of the combustion chamber with the exhaust gases. As the fused material rises, it cools and solidifies into spherical glassy particles called fly ash. This can be used as a reinforcing agent in the manufacture of bricks,
AND WHY SHOULD YOU USE THEM?
With the advent of greener construction and increased awareness of environmental issues, major construction houses and even the government are moving towards using
LIGHT WEIGHT
With light bricks, this stress and tension are reduced manifold.
ABSORB LESS HEAT
Fly ash bricks absorb less heat suitable for the Indian climate.
COST EFFECTIVE
Overall fly ash bricks help decrease costs during various stages of construction.
ECO FRIENDLY
Production of fly ash bricks requires no fossil fuel and hence does not lead to the emission of greenhouse gases.
NO ENV. DAMAGE
No top-soil damage in the production of fly ash bricks.
STRONGER AND UNIFORM
Fly ash bricks are stronger, more uniform and denser as compared to clay bricks.
MANUFACTURING
Process
Raw Material Preparation
Autoclaved Aerated Concrete (AAC) is produced by mixing pulverized fly ash, cement, gypsum, lime, water, and a small quantity of aluminium powder, soluble oil, and plastic squeeze.
Conecc’s fully automated batching plant enables accurate dosing, weighing and mixing of all the raw materials. The mixture is then poured into moulds, where chemical reactions cause it to rise like a cake.
Batching Plant
Cutting
After the cake has attained sufficient strength, it is removed from the mould and cut with wires into blocks with precision accuracy.
After cutting, the AAC blocks are hardened by autoclaving in a saturated steam atmosphere at a temperature of approx 180-190 degrees C. It is this steam curing that creates the unique crystalline structure and lends AAC its excellent qualities in comparison to building materials that are not steam cured.
Autoclaving / Curing
Sorting / Packaging
After autoclaving, the blocks are packed and are then ready for dispatch to the construction site.
Our product waste is placed back into the production process making it a totally recyclable product.

OUR
USP
EASY WELDABILITY
JSW Neosteel has excellent weldability due to lower carbon equivalent. It can be easily butt-welded,
lap-welded and manual arc welding can also be done quite simply without any pre-heating.
EASY BENDABILITY
JSW Neosteel can be bent into customized shape in spite of having very high strength due to its inherent microstructure with soft ferrite and pearlite core.
HIGHER CORROSION RESISTANCE
JSW Neosteel has higher corrosion resistance as compared to ordinary rebars due to its unique and uniform microstructure and absence of residual stresses.
SUPERIOR SIESMIC RESISTANCE
JSW Neosteel is specially designed for earthquake prone zones and has more resistance to earthquakes and shocks due to combination of higher strength and ductility. Its high UTS/ YS ratio of 1.15 minimum
ensures higher energy absorption capacity.
HIGHER FATIGUE RESISTANCE
JSW Neosteel is excellent in cyclic loading situations due to uniform & critically designed rib pattern.
PATHWAY TO PERFECTION
Because of partial quenching, a part of the original heat remains in the core of the steel and on the cooling bed, this migrates towards the surface and results in an automatic
self tempering process where the surface layer of martensite is tempered. The resulting tempered-martensite shows
