Name
100mm Aglite Ultima 4.2N/mm2 - Great Heck
Technical purpose of product or process This Environmental Product Declaration is based on production site in Great Heck. AGLITE ULTIMA is a low-density, lightweight load-bearing concrete masonry unit (CMU) manufactured across few Plasmor production sites (Boughton / Great Heck / Knottingley / Sabey Kirby / Widnes) using a proprietary blend of Plasmor's own man-made expanded clay aggregate combined with other high-quality lightweight aggregates. The product is available in multiple compressive strength classes (4.2N/mm², 7.3N/mm², and 10.4N/mm²) and in two thicknesses (100mm and 140mm). The blocks are solid, plain-ended, open-textured, and grey in colour. The open texture is designed to directly accept plaster or render. AGLITE ULTIMA - 100mm Aglite Ultima 4.2N/mm2 Lightweight & Low Density - Ultra-lightweight construction with a dry density of 1,050 kg/m³ High Thermal Efficiency- Low thermal conductivity (λ = 0.31 W/m·K) supports compliance with Building Regulations Part L Good Sound Insulation - complies with Robust Details E-WM-12, E-WM-17, E-WM-34, and E-FC-4, supporting compliance with Building Regulations Part E. Fire Resistant - offers inherent non-combustibility and fire resistance performance in accordance with applicable standards. Load Bearing - compressive strength classes, suitable for load-bearing wall applications across residential and commercial construction. Accepts Plaster & Paint Without Bonding Coat - The open-textured surface finish directly receives plaster, render, and paint, eliminating the need for additional bonding treatments and reducing material use. Low Shrinkage - The aggregate composition minimises drying shrinkage, reducing the risk of cracking and contributing to the long-term durability and integrity of the masonry structure. Authority - Manufactured under BSI Quality Assurance standards with full CE marking, demonstrating conformance with EN 771-3 and all prevailing UK Building Regulations. Easily Cut & Chased - The block can be cut and chased on site without specialist equipment. Excellent Fixability - – Accepts standard masonry fixings and fasteners reliably, supporting a wide range of internal and external finish systems. AGLITE ULTIMA is intended for use in: External walls – outer and inner leaf Internal load-bearing walls Internal partition walls Party walls Walls below DPC (7.3N only) Suspended floors – beam and block construction Suitable for: Residential (housebuilding), commercial, industrial, and repair, maintenance & improvement projects. 100mm Aglite Ultima 4.2N/mm2 - Technical Specifications: Compressive Strength - 4.2 N/mm² Dry Density - 1,050 kg/m³ Thermal Conductivity (λ) 0.31 W/m·K Block Thickness - 100mm Work Size (L × H × W) - 440 × 215 × 100mm Unit Weight (100mm) ~ 11.5 kg Pack Coverage - 9.6 m² (100mm) https://www.plasmor.co.uk/building-blocks/ultra-lightweight-blocks/aglite-ultima/

1This impact category deals mainly with the eventual impact of low dose ionizing radiation on human health of the nuclear fuel cycle. It does not consider effects due to possible nuclear accidents, occupational exposure nor due to radioactive waste disposal in underground facilities. Potential ionizing radiation from the soil, from radon and from some construction materials is also not measured by this indicator.
2The results of this environmental impact indicator shall be used with care as the uncertainties on these results are high or as there is limited experiences with the indicator.
