Geotechnical Insulation

Elastizell Lightweight Cellular Concrete has excellent thermal insulation properties and can be used as geotechnical insulation for a wide variety of applications including:

  • Heated floors on grade with radiant heating technologies
  • Roadway subbase over frost-susceptible soils
  • Protecting shallow utilities
  • Protecting pipelines from freeze-thaw cycles
  • Protecting insulating caps during thermal remediation of contaminated soil sites.
  • Storage tank foundations

Elastizell Cellular Class II EF maximum R-value of approximately 2 per inch and varies with respect to casting density. For example, a pipe in a trench with a 24-inch backfill cover would have R=48 of thermal protection.

Elastizell Systems can custom design the insulation R-value of its cellular concrete products to meet the needs of your project.

Elastizell Systems has provided exceptional lightweight concrete applications and solutions for more than four decades.
