Tunneling

We offer a range of soil conditioning agents for Earth Pressure Balance (EPB) tunneling applications.

Alongside our foaming agents we supply foam stabilizers and a catalyst for foam cavity filling. Selecting the correct foam profile ensures the job of soil extraction can be completed in a safer and more efficient manner, especially when operating under extreme site conditions, we can work together to create tailor made foaming agent formulations.

Our range includes:

Formulated foaming agent

MILLIFOAM® T-900

Formulated anionic surfactant. Provides excellent foam expansion and foam stability (ready-to-use formulated foaming agent).

Foaming agent

EMPICOL® 0758

Sodium alkyl sulphate. Provides excellent quick foam volume and foam expansion. Low freezing point foaming agent.

EMPICOL® LX28/U

Sodium alkyl sulphate. Provides excellent foam volume and foam expansion.

EMPICOL® ESB70

Sodium alkyl ether sulphate. Increases foam volume and improves foam stability.

EMPICOL® ESB 3/MX

Sodium alkyl ether sulphate. Increases foam volume and improves foam stability.

EMPICOL® ESC 3/Z

Sodium alkyl ether sulphate. Increases foam volume and improves foam stability.

EMPIMIN® SDD/O

Disodium alkyl ethoxy sulphosuccinate. Increases foam volume and improves foam stability.

NANSA® LSS38/AS

Sodium alpha olefin sulphonate. Increases foam volume and improves foam stability.

Foam stabilizer

EMPIGEN® BB

Lauryl betaine. Improves foam stability in foaming agent formulations (co-surfactant).

EMPIGEN® BS/FE

Cocoamido propyl betaine. Improves foam stability in foaming agent formulations (co-surfactant).
