Services
Foamed Concrete Supply
Our foamed concrete supply service delivers tailored material mixes ranging from 4001700 kg/m density. We formulate specific strengths (0.512 N/mm) for structural applications while maintaining flowability for complex void infills. Our in-house manufacturing ensures consistent quality control across projects from mine stabilisation to infrastructure developments.
On-Site Pumping
Our truck-mounted and skid-mounted pumping systems enable high-volume concrete placement (2500 m/day) with minimal site disruption. The inline production process achieves pumping distances exceeding 200 metres, maintaining material integrity during rapid deployment for projects requiring up to 600 m/day throughput.
Equipment Manufacturing
We design and produce specialist foaming generators and batching systems including compact lab units and large-scale production skids. Our patented inline technology enables precise foam generation while maintaining compliance with industry certifications for global construction applications.
Material Consultancy
Technical consultancy covers specification development, site surveys, and application-specific mix design. Our team provides solutions for challenging environments including infrastructure projects requiring temporary access tunnels and permanent void infill across UK and international markets.
Testing Equipment
We supply precision testing equipment including 100mm and 150mm cube moulds with next-day availability. Our test equipment supports quality assurance processes for foamed concrete applications requiring compliance with European and US specifications.

Questions
What applications suit foamed concrete?
Ideal for void infill, bridge abutments, tunnel decommissioning, and ground stabilisation. Offers self-compacting properties with compressive strengths from 0.5 to 12 N/mm².
Can you supply internationally?
Yes, we provide materials, equipment, and technical support globally. Our in-house designed systems operate across Europe, Middle East, and Asia-Pacific regions.
What densities do you offer?
Available from 400kg/m³ (ultra-light) to 1700kg/m³ (structural grade). Each density class meets specific strength requirements for construction applications.
Do you offer equipment hire?
We provide equipment sales and design services. While not offering direct hire, we supply complete systems including foam generators and batching units.
How quickly can material be placed?
Our systems achieve 120m³/hour output. Typical projects range from 2–500m³/day depending on site access and required pumping distances.
What accreditations do you hold?
QMS ISO 9001 certified with CONSTRUCTION LINE GOLD, CHAS, and FORS accreditations covering health and safety compliance for UK construction projects.

Report
We used Propump to fill in our indoor swimming pool with foamed concrete. The job was completed to our complete satisfaction, on time and in budget. The Company is responsive and professional answering all of my questions and queries in the lead up to the work being completed. Would have no hesitation in recommending Propump to anyone looking to fill in a swimming pool or other large void.
