Foundiz develops new techniques and applications that make foundation work more efficient, easier to carry out, and future-proof.
In addition to supplying machinery and providing consulting services, Foundiz is actively involved in developing new foundation techniques and applications within the field of foundation engineering. Drawing on practical experience and technical expertise, the company creates solutions that address the challenges encountered on construction sites.
Innovations are aimed at more efficient implementation, better project management, and minimizing disruption to the surrounding area.
New techniques often arise from specific project challenges. By combining experience with piling equipment and on-site execution, we develop solutions that are tailored to real-world applications.
In doing so, we look not only at the equipment, but at the entire application: from technology and implementation to logistics and environmental factors.
Examples include the CPW wall and the broker-guided application of sidegrip vibro hammers. These innovations contribute to more efficient execution and enable new applications in foundation projects.
A key innovation by Foundiz is the broker-guided application of a sidegrip vibro. Several patents have been obtained for this technique.
In this application, a sidegrip vibro is used via a bracket assembly to install steel pipe piles, sheet piles, and steel beams, among other things.
A key feature is that the rotating mechanism is integrated into the vibro hammer itself. This allows the foundation element to be positioned with precision and enables work to be carried out even in confined spaces or at difficult angles.

The CPW wall is a foundation technique developed by Foundiz for the vibration-free installation of concrete sheet piles into the ground. This technique was developed as an alternative to traditional steel sheet piles, where vibrations, transportation, and construction site logistics often pose a challenge.
In this method, hollow panels are pressed into the ground and filled with reinforcing bars and concrete. The panels temporarily serve as formwork and are recovered after the concrete is poured. This creates a concrete wall formed in the ground with a watertight joint between the panels.
The CPW wall offers clear advantages over traditional solutions:
Due to the growing demand for low-emission and zero-emission construction methods, the need for emission-free solutions is also increasing in foundation projects. This is particularly true for inner-city areas and sites with stricter requirements.
That is why, in addition to developing new techniques for construction and efficiency, we are also developing solutions for zero-emission foundation work, such as sheet pile pressing machines equipped with a zero-emission power pack.
At Foundiz, innovation is not separate from practical application, but is directly linked to the execution of foundation projects. Through continuous development, the improvement of existing techniques, and the practical application of new techniques, we create solutions that truly contribute to more efficient, safer, and more sustainable foundation projects.
Implementing these innovations requires the right balance between technology, equipment, and execution. You can read more about this on our consulting page.
