What is LiteFill?

LiteFill is a structural fill material made from Expanded Polystyrene (EPS). It is designed to provide a lightweight, stable foundation for construction projects, particularly on unstable soils.
What are the primary uses of EPS structural fill like LiteFill?

LiteFill is commonly used for structural slabs on unstable soils, road embankments, retaining walls, and other construction applications where a lightweight, yet strong, fill material is needed.
Can LiteFill be customized?

Yes, LiteFill can be produced in custom sizes to meet specific project requirements. Custom structural designs are also available to suit the needs of engineers and architects.
What are the benefits of using LiteFill?

LiteFill is lightweight, reducing the load on underlying soils. It is easy to install, provides excellent thermal insulation, and can be customized for various structural requirements, making it a versatile solution for challenging construction conditions.
How does LiteFill perform on unstable soils?

LiteFill’s lightweight properties make it ideal for use on unstable soils, where traditional fill materials might cause excessive settlement or instability. It provides a stable base for structural slabs and other construction elements.
Are there different densities available for LiteFill?

Yes, LiteFill is available in varying densities, which can be tailored to the specific load-bearing and insulation requirements of a project. Engineers and architects can specify the density needed based on their structural designs.
Is LiteFill suitable for large-scale projects?

Absolutely. LiteFill is used in a wide range of projects, from small residential developments to large-scale commercial and infrastructure projects, due to its customizable and adaptable nature.
What is the installation process for LiteFill?

LiteFill is easy to handle and install. It can be cut to size on-site and placed directly into the construction area. The lightweight nature of the material reduces labor and equipment costs compared to traditional fill methods.
Can LiteFill be used in environmentally sensitive areas?

Yes, LiteFill is made from EPS, which is inert and non-toxic, making it suitable for use in environmentally sensitive areas. Its lightweight nature also reduces the environmental impact of transportation and installation.
How can I determine the right LiteFill specifications for my project?

The appropriate LiteFill specifications, such as size, density, and structural design, should be determined based on the project's specific requirements. Consultation with engineers and architects, along with LiteForm Technologies, can help ensure the right solution is selected.
