KNOW THE PRODUCT
The MAINPOL factory for lightweight concrete is designed for the production of expanded polystyrene balls for later mixing with concrete and thus obtaining the different types of lightweight concrete depending on the different applications in construction.
This concrete allows a great insulation capacity and a lot of lightness.
JOIN SUSTAINABLE MANUFACTURING
The EPS manufacturing process does not emit polluting gases into the atmosphere
FABRICATION PROCESS
PRE-EXPANDER
The Pre-expander transforms the expandable EPS (raw material) into expanded EPS, achieving the necessary density depending on the production needs. It is an easy-to-use machine and a fully automated process.
BOILER
The steam boiler produces the water vapor necessary for the different phases of the expansion process (expansion of the raw material beads, welding and pressing of the block) It is fully automatic and requires minimal maintenance.
CONCRETE MIXER
The plate mixer is for mixing high-quality materials.
SILOS
The silos are used for the storage and rest of the expanded beads, while their stabilization occurs. The dimensions of the silos are very varied and adaptable to customer needs.
COMPRESSOR
The compressor produces the air necessary for the movement of valves, flaps, etc. The tank is a storage of the air produced by the compressor.
