Foam concrete is often known as cellular concrete, engineered fill or controlled density fill.  It is an excellent alternative to traditional stone backfill in applications where access, cost or weight/load factors are a concern.

Cellular concrete offers a range of strengths, densities and set times to meet specific job requirements.


Other advantages of foam concrete over conventional fills include:

• Load reduction (lateral and vertical)
• No future settlement
• Re-excavatable
• Flowability – fills small voids
• Lower cost
• Nocompaction required
• Ease of placement
• Thermal insulation

Foam concrete is well suited for backfill applications including deep foundations, MSE/retaining walls, open cuts, and pipe embeddments.
