Xella Aircrete North America Inc. is a Georgia company, with offices located in Atlanta, and manufacturing facilities in Adel.
XELLA produces HEBEL AAC (Autoclaved Aerated Concrete) for commercial, industrial, and residential construction in North America.
Solid yet lightweight, HEBEL AAC is an environmentally responsible building material that is both highly durable and easy to use, allowing faster – and more efficient – construction projects.
AAC was developed by architect Dr. Johan Eriksson in 1923 at the Royal Technical Institute in Stockholm, Sweden, where he patented AAC under the brand name YTONG.
In 1945, Josef Hebel invented a method of producing reinforced AAC panels by incorporating steel into the manufacturing process, and patented reinforced AAC with the brand HEBEL.
Today, the experience and knowledge linked to the two brands of HEBEL and YTONG have secured Xella International as the world’s leader of AAC production- with a team of 7,400 at work in 30 countries across North America, South America, Europe and Asia.
