Our Berkswell readymix plant in Warwick shire provided it s first customer with the new POROFOAM 950 product for Costain Ltd, working at Claverdon Sewage Treatment Works in Warwickshire.

The customer was looking for a non-structural mix to fill an underground chamber. Whilst site staff were initially apprehensive about using the mix, having previously used our VOIDFILL product for a similar application, we ensured the customer was closely supported and the engineer on site was very pleased with the product and its characteristics.

Thanks to everyone involved including Area Technical Manager, Gilbert Morgan, for co-ordinating the project with all arms of the business; John Shrimpton and Mike Higgins for specialist technical assistance and guidance on mix design prior to and during the pour; Gordon Mcdade for preparing the plant and ordering of the specialist raw materials; Damian Keogh for batching and managing the pour; David Wetherill and Kevin Davis for foaming duties and on-site technical assistance, and finally David Taylor for dealing with the enquiry commercially while Matt was on holiday.
