POWER Concrete Blocks
Solid & Hollow Blocks
POWER CONCRETE BLOCK plays a vital role in today’s Construction Industry as it is designed for load / non load bearing walls and is economical. We manufacture customised POWER Concrete Blocks with a mixture of cement, various types of aggregates, additives etc. We manufacture Power Concrete blocks on Automated Machine which are manufactured by hydraulic pressure and with German Based dual vibration system which gives it high strength and makes it more durable. The block have a rough texture which helps in excellent bonding between cement mortar and block.
POWER blocks are made after stringent quality checks and made from PLC controlled machine and as per IS Code 2185-1/2005.

Safety Measures while fixing Power Concrete Blocks
- 1. Personal protective equipment: Always wear the appropriate personal protective equipment, such as safety glasses, gloves, safety shoes and a hard hat, to protect yourself from injury.
- 2. Tools: Make sure you have the correct tools for the job, and that they are in good condition.
- 3. Lifting techniques: Use proper lifting techniques to avoid injury when handling heavy blocks. Get help from a second person if necessary.
- 4. Stabilization: Make sure the concrete wall is properly stabilized to prevent it from collapsing during construction.
- 5. Working at height: If working at height, use a ladder or scaffold that is securely anchored and in good condition.
- 6. Support: Make sure the Concrete wall is properly supported during construction, especially when adding additional courses of blocks.
- 7. Site inspection: Inspect the site regularly to ensure that it is safe and that the concrete wall is being constructed correctly.
- By taking these safety measures, you can reduce the risk of injury and ensure that the Concrete wall is constructed safely and correctly.
