Confoam™

Confoam lolo - light weight cellular concrete

A Cost-effective, Time-saving Solution

A Cost-effective, Time-saving Solution

The Conco Companies produce and place Confoam™, also known as foam concrete, which is one of the most productive, cost-effective solutions for a large variety of applications. Our proprietary Confoam™ is a lightweight, low-density fill material that is customized for each specific application and provides benefits that cannot be achieved with traditional construction materials. In addition, Conco has the specialized production equipment and the professional know-how to safely and skillfully place the highly flowable, cellular lightweight concrete to save projects both time and money.

Confoam™ Technology & Applications

Confoam™ is a cement-based cellular concrete slurry that has a high percentage of foam entrained into the plastic mortar. Along with its fluid nature and ease of pumpability, Confoam™ can easily fill the most difficult annular grout and void spaces, including underneath slabs or narrow, unstable trenches.

Confoam™ benefits include:

  • No Compaction Required – Self-compacting Confoam™ eliminates the need for mechanical compaction and is also more consistent, while at the same time, having no impact on retaining structures or deep foundations. This makes it a great fit for swimming pool demolition.
  • Lightweight Concrete – Confoam™ can be produced at a weight that is considerably less than compacted base materials or native soils, and thus eliminates the need for expensive foundation solutions.
  • Settlement Free Construction – Confoam™ can be produced to make the combined weight of the new structure less than or equal to the weight of the removed soil, and virtually eliminates any settlement.
  • Safer placement – Confoam™ offers a safer alternative to traditional methods of pipe abandonment backfill and utility trench and excavation backfill, as it eliminates the need to put employees in the excavation area.
  • Easily excavatable – Unlike other CLSM concrete mixes, Confoam™ does not achieve unexpected strength gain, which means it is easy to excavate with common construction equipment, or in the case of some low strength mixes, just a shovel.

ConFoam™ FAQs

Conco aims to be the top supplier of concrete services in the Western U.S., and to bring our expertise and professionalism to each project.
