Foamit Foam Glass Aggregate Big Bag
Foam glass aggregate is a pumice like aggregate that is used by the infrastructure and construction industries as a lightweight fill material. Foam glass aggregate is manufactured from waste glass cullets, and a foaming agent (typically silicon carbide). Foam glass production prevents landfilling of reject glass generated at glass recycling plants. Any organic matter impurities in the raw material combusts in the production process, and therefore there is no organic matter in the foam glass product. Foam glass is non-flammable and has good water conductivity properties. Thanks to its foamed cell structure, foam glass aggregate provides excellent thermal insulation. The foam glass aggregate’s flexible settling properties and angle of repose ensure a robust substructure on
the worksite.
This EPD considers foam glass big bag (m3) products of the following grain sizes:
• Foamit 60 (0-60mm), loose dry bulk density 210 kg/m3 (±15%)
• Foamit 30 (20-30mm), loose dry bulk density 210 kg/m3 (±15%)
• Foamit 20 (4-20mm), loose dry bulk density 190 kg/m3 (±15%)
