- Can be constructed in harsh weather conditions.
- Eliminates any environmental permits as Geofoam Is already environmentally friendly.
Commercial Geofoam Applications
As stated above, Geofoam is the go-to material for many buildings and foundations because of its uniqueness in physical properties. Here are some of the applications that Geofoam can do:
- Slope and landscaping stabilization
Because of its lightweight properties, Geofoam is often used in landscaping structures such as a roof garden. Geofoam blocks can help form the unusual geometries that comes with creating different landscapes. To prevent landslides, Geofoam can also stabilize slopes by replacing existing soil, reinforcing the structure
- Foundation and insulation
- Bridge support:
