Lightweight fill for road construction on weak ground.
Lightweight glass foam material S2
Road lightweighting, load reduction, and settlement suppression on weak ground! Easy construction with standard heavy machinery. Abundant track record nationwide.
Lightweight glass foam material is a porous lightweight foamed material made from recycled waste glass, used in lightweight embankment construction. In the civil engineering and construction fields, it takes advantage of its lightweight properties to reduce settlement in embankments and road elevation corrections on soft ground, alleviate wall pressure in retaining wall backfill, and reduce loads on underground structures. It can also be utilized in mixed lightweight soil using excavated soil from the site. There are numerous delivery records, primarily in public works by the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism and various prefectural and municipal governments, including highways and private projects. Since lightweight glass foam material is made from waste glass bottles, it does not leach harmful substances, complies with soil environmental standards, and contributes to a recycling-oriented society. Lightweight glass foam material is an eco-mark product (17 131 006). - Features ○ The civil engineering type is a gravel-like porous body with sizes ranging from 2 to 75 mm. ○ Easy construction with compaction using standard heavy machinery. ○ Excellent drainage even during compaction. ○ Lightweight and easy to handle, with no preparation curing period, allowing for shortened construction time. ○ High flexibility at the construction site, making it possible to work even with distorted terrain or buried pipes. Suitable for large-scale projects. ○ Can be combined with other lightweight materials. ○ Eco-mark product (17 131 006). For more details, please contact us or download the catalog to view.
