ALC Panel Installation Option
Horizontal Installation
Benefit of horizontal installation is:
- Lower risk of hairline crack between panel joint
- Lower risk of water seepage related problem

What Is an ALC Panel?
-
An ALC panel — Autoclaved Lightweight Concrete panel — is a factory-manufactured wall panel produced from a mixture of cement, lime, silica sand, and aluminium powder. During the manufacturing process, the aluminium powder reacts with the alkaline concrete mixture to generate millions of tiny hydrogen gas bubbles, creating a cellular structure within the panel. The material is then cured under high pressure and temperature in an autoclave, producing a product that is up to 70% lighter than conventional concrete while maintaining excellent compressive strength and structural integrity.
In Singapore's construction industry, ALC panels are widely used as non-load-bearing partition walls, external cladding, and floor slabs. Their lightweight nature significantly reduces structural load on the building foundation, making them ideal for high-rise HDB flats, commercial interiors, and industrial premises. The material is also non-combustible, dimensionally stable, and resistant to moisture — properties that make it a preferred alternative to traditional clay brick walls across Singapore and Malaysia.
FAQ
What is an ALC panel and how is it used in Singapore construction?
An ALC panel (Autoclaved Lightweight Concrete panel) is a factory-manufactured wall panel made from cement, lime, silica sand, and aluminium powder, cured under high pressure and temperature. In Singapore construction, ALC panels are used as partition walls, external cladding, and floor slabs for HDB renovation, commercial fit-outs, and industrial buildings. Vodapruf’s ALC panels are up to 70% lighter than traditional brick, carry a 4-hour fire rating (BS 476), and are SGBC Green Label certified — making them a preferred choice across Singapore’s residential and commercial construction sectors.
What is the difference between ALC panel and AAC block?
ALC panels are large-format reinforced wall panels — typically 3 to 6 metres long — while AAC blocks are smaller brick-sized units. Vodapruf’s ALC panels install at 25–30 m² per day versus 6–10 m² per day for traditional brick, produce fewer wall joints which reduces the risk of cracking and water seepage, and deliver a cleaner panel finish requiring less plastering. For Singapore partition wall applications, ALC panels are generally preferred over AAC blocks for speed, uniformity, and long-span coverage.
Is ALC panel suitable for HDB renovation in Singapore?
Yes. Vodapruf’s vPanel ALC panels meet HDB fire and structural requirements and are widely used for partition wall construction in HDB renovation projects across Singapore. The panels carry a 4-hour fire rating under BS 476 Part 22 and are Singapore Green Building Council (SGBC) Green Label certified. Consult your HDB-licensed renovation contractor to confirm wall thickness, installation method, and any specific HDB flat requirements before ordering.
What is the ALC panel price in Singapore?
ALC panel pricing in Singapore varies based on panel thickness, total quantity (m²), delivery schedule, and whether accessories such as jointing mortar, skim coat, and vNAIL are included. Vodapruf offers an all-inclusive quotation — the quoted price covers the panel and all system accessories in one figure. Contact our Singapore sales team at +65 9796 5910 or wang@vodapruf.com for a customised quotation. We respond to all quote requests within 1 business day.
How long does ALC panel installation take?
Vodapruf’s vPanel ALC panels achieve a productivity rate of 25–30 m² per day with a trained installation team. For comparison, traditional clay brick installation typically reaches 6–10 m² per day. A partition wall for a 100 m² space can generally be completed in 1–2 working days using ALC panels, versus 2–3 weeks using conventional brick — making ALC panels up to 3x faster in terms of installation speed.
What thickness are Vodapruf ALC panels available in?
Vodapruf’s vPanel Standard ALC panels are available in 100mm as the standard thickness, with a panel width of 610mm and lengths of 3m, 4m, or 6m. For projects requiring different thicknesses — such as 75mm, 125mm, 150mm, or 200mm — contact our team to discuss availability and lead times. Thicker panels are typically used for external walls or applications requiring higher acoustic or fire performance.
Does Vodapruf supply ALC panels for wet areas in Singapore?
Yes. Vodapruf’s vPanel ALC panels are suitable for wet area applications, including bathrooms, kitchens, and external walls exposed to Singapore’s tropical climate. The panels are composed of millions of microscopic closed air cells that resist moisture penetration — confirmed by our Water Absorption Test Report (BS EN 772-11:2011). For full waterproofing performance, apply a waterproof membrane as part of the finishing system, particularly in direct-water-contact areas such as shower enclosures.
