Foam Concrete

Characteristics :

Foamed concrete is usually a pumpable, free flowing material, it requires no compacting and can be poured in layers of up to 1 metre in depth. Propump place foamed concretes that will search and encapsulate with ease. Foamed Concretes are, to an extent, self-levelling and will freely flow upwards of 30 metres. The characteristics of each different mix design can be modified to suit the application.

To fill big spaces surrounding pipes, ducts, cable trays, and similar apertures, lightweight foam concrete can be poured or pumped. Lightweight Foam Concrete Foam Concrete is designated as a component of a fire stop system rather than as a normal building material. They are frequently utilised in instances when one side of a penetration is unavailable as well as for numerous penetration apertures. The fire stop must be protected with systems composed of foam concrete if the penetrating object is anticipated to move during the building's lifespan (for example, due to thermal expansion or shrinkage). To allow the penetrating item to move without endangering the fire stop, an expansion substance, thermocol, or equivalent provision is frequently included.

To match your needs, foam concrete is produced using special admixtures and is available in a range of densities. Our on-site foam generation systems can produce the product, which can then be easily placed without the requirement for compaction. Our foam concrete may achieve strengths between 2.5 and 5 N/mm2, and thanks to our distinctive production process, we can produce dry densities between 500 kg/m3 and 1800 kg/m3. In order to develop a solution for strengths and densities outside of this range, our team of knowledgeable experts works directly with you.
