What is FOAM CONCRETE?
Foam concrete is cement bonded material manufactured by blending a very fluid cement paste (slurry) and then injecting stable, pre-formed foam into the slurry. The volume of slurry to foam dictates the density of the foam concrete.
The physical characteristics of foam concrete are determined by various mix designs. These may include the use of Portland Cement (CEM1) either on it's own or in combination with a percentage of Pulverized Fly Ash, limestone dust or sand.
Together with a pre-determined volume of entrained air, this slurry becomes fresh foam concrete, which has the appearance of a light gray mousse or milk-shake.
