Bespoke Precast Concrete
Betaloc® XL Precast Interlocking Concrete Blocks
The Betaloc® XL is Poundfield Precast's concrete brick style of interlocking building blocks, which provides a highly flexible construction system.
Solid concrete brick style blocks are ideal for both temporary and permanent structures. They’re easy to stack, move and relocate, making them perfect for constructing storage areas, partition walls, perimeter or retaining walls, or to use in areas such as landscaping, flood defences or site security barriers.
With 2 cast in lifting points, the units are quick to install and once in place the wall is immediately ready for use; the only real requirement prior to installation is to have a sound and level base.
This product is professionally designed and the performance has been calculated by our structural engineer. All applications and use of our products must be in line with our guidance, based on the specific capabilities, which is advised by our trained sales team.

Case Study: Betaloc® XL Blocks allow for easy reconfiguration at Sackers Recycling
Sackers Recycling is a family-run business which specialises in the recycling of scrap metal, commercial and industrial waste. Operating from two sites near Ipswich they required a flexible storage solution to cater to the growing demands of their business and the waste that they handle.
“We like the flexibility of the Betaloc® XL blocks as it allows us to reconfigure the bays as our needs change. The blocks weigh in at around 2.4 tonnes each and therefore they provide a robust dividing wall which can be loaded on both sides,
Keeping product separated is increasingly becoming more important in the waste industry, especially to avoid the risk of cross-contamination once the waste has been sorted.
An efficient storage system is vital to us as a business and the Betaloc® XL blocks gives us the flexibility we need as our business grows and the volumes we handle increase”. said Adrian Dodds, Director for Sackers.
A dividing wall can be created quickly and easily thanks to the interlocking design of the Betaloc® XL. They can be stacked up to 3 high giving a total height of 2.4 metres. The Betaloc® XL blocks can be removed and relocated at any time making them suitable for both temporary and permanent structures.
