Foaming Agents are one of the key components to any lightweight concrete production line – for without a good foaming agent production/ consistency becomes difficult, production costs rise, and performance worsens.
K Block’s advanced foaming agent has been formulated to prodcue strong small air bubbles that are so durable they stay stable at densities even as low as <5% the weight of concrete and enable lightweight concrete to be pumped long distances and poured from >10 metre heights.
