2 Designed for Future Living After 60 years of European engineering and 2 decades of Australian innovation, the benefits of building your new home with Hebel are more compelling and more affordable than ever. If you re looking for a beautiful, comfortable and energy efficient home that has a lower impact on our environment compared to standard masonry, ask your builder to make your new home a HebelHome. In Australia, there are two basic methods of building homes. The first and most common is the framed construction method, traditionally used for brick veneer over a timber frame. The second is the solid, or loadbearing construction method, generally used for double brick or block homes. Whichever method you choose for building your home, Hebel has the systems to suit. HebelHome uses steel reinforced panels in the walls and floor for framed construction that provides comfort and energy savings as well as a beautiful rendered look at an economical cost. HebelHome Platinum uses solid blocks that cater for frameless, loadbearing construction for homes with exceptional performance. Hebel is the only residential cladding material to have been endorsed by the Good Environmental Choice Australia Label*. *as at May 2010

Hebel has worked closely with leading coatings manufacturers to develop a range of finishing options from full acrylic systems to high build renders and textures designed specifically to complement the HebelHome wall surface. You can also express your individual style and create a truly unique home with Hebel Accent, which allows you the design freedom to achieve architectural and artistic effects.

4 comfortable The thermal and acoustic insulation properties of Autoclaved Aerated Concrete (AAC) can significantly improve the comfort in your new home. The panels used in HebelHome have up to 5 times the thermal resistance of a standard house brick and the 250mm Blocks used in HebelHome Platinum have 11 times the thermal resistance. Your HebelHome will maintain a more even temperature so you can be more comfortable in summer and winter with lower reliance on heating and cooling appliances. Enjoy a more comfortable living experience and save on energy costs at the same time. For a quieter living experience in 2 storey homes, installing a solid PowerFloor in your HebelHome can make your living experience more tranquil by noticeably reducing noise between floors. When used on raised ground floors, PowerFloor can also improve the thermal performance of your home. HebelHome Platinum incorporates the ultimate in flooring. Floor Panels up to 250mm thick eliminate the need for timber or steel framing and provide exceptional acoustic performance between floors. Also, the exceptional thermal insulation properties can dramatically improve the home s energy efficiency, with four times the thermal resistance of concrete. And you can breathe easy knowing that is a non-toxic building material with no risk of gas emissions.
