•  Foamolite derived from foam concrete is a material which consists primarily of a cement based mortar mixed with at least 20% of volume air.

•  It possesses high workability, low self-weight, zero consumption of aggregate, controlled low strength and excellent thermal insulation properties.

•  It can have a range of dry densities, typically from 600 kg/m3 to 1600 kg/m3 and a range of compressive strengths, 1 MPa to 5 MPa .

 

Applications of Foamolite:

1)  Building Partition Walls:

Wall panels can be made for partition and Non load bearing walls. They can be made with almost any dimensions.  

2)  Floor Screed: Foamolite can be used for floor screeds, creating a flat surface on uneven ground and raising & floor levels. 

3)  Void Filling:Foamolite is a perfect void filling material because of its placement characteristic. 

4)  Roof Insulation: Foamolite is used extensively for roof insulation and for making a slope on flat roofs. It has good thermal insulation properties and because it is lightweight foamolite does not impose a large loading    on the building.  

5)  Road Sub-Base: Foamolite is being used road sub base on a bridge. Foamolite is lightweight so that the loading imposed on the bridge is minimised.

 

Advantages of Foamolite: 

1)   Highly workable, hence requires no compaction.

2)   Lightweight - does not impose large loadings.

3)   Free flowing - spreads to fill all voids.

4)   Good thermal Insulation.

5)   Enables fast work.

6)   Non load bearing characteristics.

7)   Low water absorption over time.

8)   Non-hazardous either during application or in service.

9)   Fire resistant.

10)   Reliable quality control - batches are easy to reproduce.

11)   Resistant to freeze-thaw cycle.

12)   Once placed requires no maintenance.

13)   Does not impose significant lateral loads.

14)   Highly cost effective compared with other methods.

15)   Sufficiently strong and durable for most applications.

16)   Green Product.
