Foam concrete blocks are made of a type of cellular material made with a mixture of cement, sand, fly ash, stable foam and special additives. The lightweight properties are a result of an ingeniously simple idea of the hardened material consisting of small enclosed bubbles making it lighter than its competitors. The material densities range from 300 kg/m3 to 1800 kg/m3. Strength and dimensional stability is imparted to the block using air curing or pressure steam curing.
Foam concrete blocks can be used for load bearing, non-load bearing and portion walls in all types of commercial, industrial and residential applications. For bonding the solid units are installed with ordinary cement mortar.
