One of Foamex' valuable contributions to the revolutions of methodologies in slab construction is their lightweight polystyrene waffle pods, Diamond Pod®. Foamex is fully committed to innovating ways on how to use expanded polystyrene to fit the needs of the residential, industrial and commercial markets.

Diamond Pod® are lightweight polystyrene waffle pods, installed beneath concrete slabs to provide insulation and structural support. Diamond Pod® enables faster installation of robust and highly-engineered slabs, requiring less concrete. Hence, lightweight polystyrene waffle pods are a cost-effective alternative building material, compared to traditional concrete pours in the market.

Why Choose Diamond Pod® from Foamex?

Diamond Pod® from Foamex has many features and benefits, due to its physical properties.

Lightweight and Easy To Handle
Foamex' Diamond Pod® provides efficiency in the transport, handling and installation due to its lightweight expanded polystyrene composition. This characteristic saves time in construction and promotes the compatibility of the product to any bracket and steel reinforcing mesh systems. These mesh systems provide added durability and high performance.

Reduce the Effect of Soil Movement
Diamond Pod® requires minimal earthworks, since there is no need to dig internal trenches. The size and shape of the pillars forming the "Diamond" shape give maximum support and durability against the weight load required for the pods' setup, reinforcing steel placement and concrete application.
