Frequently asked questions
Can you do an estimate for pods, spacers and concrete volume?
Yes, Allied Concrete can supply you with an estimate of the number of pods, spacers and the volume of concrete required. All we need is an email copy of your floor plan. There is no charge for this.
Where is the QPOD system available?
SuperSlab+ is available throughout New Zealand. Please contact your local Allied Concrete plant to find out more; 0800 4 ALLIED.
Can the pods be recycled?
Yes, QPODs are made from recycled material and 100% recyclable.
Does it have an improved R-Value?
The R value is a function of the slab geometry. SuperSlab+ floors provide improved R value and thermal mass both of which contribute to a warmer floor. To further improve the R-value, SuperSlab+ can be used in conjunction with QuickSet or QuickEdge perimeter insulation. Refer to the Allied SuperSlab Technical Manual for further information.
Can a decorative concrete finish be achieved with SuperSlab+?
Yes, both specific mixes can be either polished or incorporate colour to provide the desired look for your space.
Are the pods easy to transport?
Yes, the pods can be stacked for delivery and storage. A 180sqm floor able to be transported on a single axle trailer or the back of a Ute.
Can SuperSlab+ be used on a sloping site?

Is SuperSlab+ Faster to Install than a Standard SuperSlab?
Yes, the unique interlocking pods and spacers make installation faster than using polystyrene pods.
Can I use standard concrete, or does it require a special mix?
When building on good ground SuperSlab+ requires two specific mixes: 202CSS (20MPa mix), 252CSS (25MPa mix), available in both 13mm and 19mm aggregates, both suitable for a 100mm line pump.
Refer to the SuperSlab Technical Manual, available in the Document library.

When building on good ground SuperSlab+ may be slightly more expensive than using traditional polystyrene pods, however costs can be offset with the reduction in environmental footprint, transportation and storage costs combined with speed of installation.
Can I switch out my existing SuperSlab floor to using SuperSlab+?
Yes, QPOD is a direct replacement for 1100mm x 1100mm x 220mm traditional polystyrene pods and can easily be substituted without the need for an engineered design when building on good ground as per NZS3604.
