Foam concrete is a type of porous concrete.
According to its features and uses it is similar to aerated concrete.
Aerated concrete.
Lightweight foam concrete.
Porous concrete.
Foam concrete is created by a uniform distribution of air bubbles throughout the mass of concrete. Foam concrete is produced by mechanical mixing of foam prepared in advance with concrete mixture, and not with the help of chemical reactions. Foam is prepared in the special device - foam generator and after that mixing in the special mixer. (For example, machine Fomm-Prof consists of a special mixer and foam generator mounting together).
Foam Concrete is normal concrete with bubbles of air inside. Therefore it has the same characteristics with many additional advantages. Also, CLC can be produced and poured for floors and roofs on-site. In roofs, it can be used because of very good insulating and lightweight. For floors, CLC offers faster installation and a less expensive option because of the flowing and self-leveling properties.
