Technopol SA — Slab Formwork

Technoblocks

A permanent shuttering system used instead of traditional cement ash blocks. Placed between concrete lintels to create a base for casting the final concrete slab — delivering thermal insulation, improved acoustics and reduced structural load.

#120 Technoblock

The moulded #120 Technoblock can be used on a balcony or any grounded or low-bearing area where there is no constant weight on top of it. Its solid profile makes it ideal for lighter slab applications.

Product Specifications — #120

Moulded EPS block used as a permanent shuttering element on balconies and low-bearing ground floor areas. Acts as a void filler when concrete is poured, providing thermal insulation and acoustic improvement while significantly reducing structural load.

  • Effective Span Dimension500 mm
  • Packaging30 Per Bundle
  • Bundle Dimensions1630 × 730 × 550 mm
  • ApplicationBalcony / Low Bearing
NoteSuitable where there is no constant weight on the slab. For double-storey or load-bearing applications, use the #190 Technoblock.
Benefits
  • Significantly lighter than cement ash blocks
  • Reduces dead load on foundations
  • Thermal insulation in the slab
  • Improved acoustic performance
  • Reduces concrete volume used
Applications
  • Balcony slabs
  • Ground floor slabs
  • Low-bearing suspended slabs
  • Ribbed slab construction

#190 Technoblock

The moulded #190 Technoblock is designed for double-storey construction where there is constant weight on the slab above. Three hollow circular cores allow steel rods to pass through for structural support. Caps supplied for closing off ends — 6 caps free for every 5 blocks ordered.

EPS Shuttering for Concrete Slabs

Technoblocks replace traditional cement ash blocks as a permanent formwork system. The EPS acts as thermal insulation and an acoustic damper, while dramatically reducing dead load on foundations. Installation is faster and requires less labour than conventional block-and-beam methods.
