Delivering durable, efficient below-ground performance

Celcon Blocks: Foundation Blocks

Built for below-ground construction

A simpler foundation solution

Celcon Foundation Blocks provide a durable and efficient aircrete solution for below-ground construction. Resistant to water penetration, freeze/thaw conditions, and sulfate attack, they provide a practical alternative to traditional masonry foundations.

Easy to install, they can be laid below ground without mortar perpends and are available in Standard and High Strength grades to meet different structural requirements.
