Material and Processes

Propump Engineering is happy to offer consultancy where onsite batching, logistics, and daily supply of material are defining factors.

Propump Engineering can help provide a suitable material specification based on the needs and requirements of a specific project, as well as advising on the best practices from initial preparation works through to completion.

As a material supplier, Propump have conducted various tests and trials to see what chemical blends and materials produce good, stable coherent foamed concrete. Using a combination of research and development with on-site experiences to establish how far a material can be pumped, how deep it can be poured, what additives, accelerators and plasticisers will work. This information goes far beyond the theoretical and allows us to offer solutions to problems that most other companies cannot.
