Milbank hollowcore floors (also known as slabs or planks) are pre-stressed concrete slabs with internal tubular voids, creating an efficient and lightweight plank that is far lighter than other floor slabs of equal thickness or strength. The reduction in weight offers benefits such as lower transportation costs and saves on the cost of materials required (concrete).
Hollowcore slabs are typically used in the construction of upper floors in apartments and flats, commercial buildings, and larger houses. They deliver outstanding thermal properties and offer improved thermal efficiency in all developments. Milbank hollowcore planks are available as 150mm, 200mm and 250mm deep units and are produced as standard 1200mm wide (although different shapes and widths are available to fit your individual requirements). When installed and grouted together, Milbank Hollowcore units form a unified monolithic slab.
