Breedon Foam™ is a lightweight alternative to traditional concrete and provides exceptional versatility across a wide range of construction and infrastructure applications, including void filling and trench reinstatements.
Breedon Foam™ is easy to transport and handle, restores lateral support to adjacent services, and improves overall project efficiency, making it ideal for the demands of modern construction.

Breedon Foam™ is a high‑performance, lightweight, free‑flowing foamed concrete designed for construction, civil engineering and infrastructure projects.
Designed as a trench reinstatement solution, and meets the recommendations of the HAUC (Highway Authorities & Utilities Committee) legislation.
With its low density and enhanced flowability, Breedon Foam™ can be poured directly into excavations without the need for compaction. It naturally flows to the required level, reinstates lateral support to surrounding services and delivers a quick, clean backfill process. The surface can be easily struck off, and in most highway applications, a wearing course can be applied within 24 hours.
Every mix is developed to project specification, with strength and density tailored to meet the performance requirements of the final application.
Reduced labour time
Breedon Foam™ is easy to place due to its increased flowability, reducing labour time on site.
Enhanced thermal properties
Breedon Foam™ provides enhanced thermal insulation compared to standard concrete.
Improved health and safety
With no need for vibration or compaction equipment, Breedon Foam™ reduces the risk of vibration-related conditions.
Coated surfacing can typically be applied within 24 hours
Breedon Foam™ is suitable for a wide range of general construction applications, including:
Please contact the team to discuss your specific project requirements and application.
Reduced labour with ease of placement
Improved thermal insulation
No compaction required
Foamed concrete, such as Breedon Foam™, is much lighter than standard concrete mixes, making it ideal for when you need to reduce the load on structures such as rooftops, bridge embankments, or filling voids where weight is a concern.
Additionally, foamed concrete has excellent thermal and sound insulation properties due to its air-filled cellular structure.
Breedon Foam™ has a typical density of 1,750kg/m³ - 1,850kg/m³, compared to a standard concrete density of around 2,400kg/m³.
No. We do not recommend using Breedon Foam™ for any structural building applications.
It has been specifically designed for void fill purposes. Our standard Breedon Foam™ strength is typically between 2–4 N/mm², although higher strengths can be produced upon request.

Our ready-mix concrete is normally delivered in an 8-wheeler mixer truck that typically carries 7.5m3 of concrete and has a gross weight of 32t. For hard-to-access areas or smaller loads our Breedon Minimix service may be suitable.
We also offer a collection service from specific plants. Please contact us for more information and locations.
