Description | Extruded Polystyrene (XPS) is a high-performance rigid insulation material characterized by its closed-cell structure, rendering it impervious to moisture. It comes in various grades tailored for specific applications demanding high load capacity or resistance to excessive moisture. Produced as either a standard construction product or a precise version for panel manufacturing, XPS is offered in white or black hues and stands out as one of the most practical insulating materials. It serves not only as an insulation solution but also as a structural insulation solution. |
Features |
Plastic extruded plates are a series of products specifically designed using advanced techniques to meet the needs of exterior wall insulation systems. For thin-plaster external wall insulation systems, these plates feature a unique pattern and stucco coating (including coarse and fine textures) with notches on both sides. These features offer several advantages: Easy and convenient installation: The design of the plastic extruded plates simplifies the installation process, making it faster and more efficient. Increased mortar adhesion area: The notches and textured surface of the plates provide a larger surface area for the mortar to adhere to, enhancing the overall bond strength. Enhanced system stability: The improved adhesion and the robust nature of the plastic extruded plates ensure that the external insulation system remains stable, weather-resistant, and durable. Weather resistance and durability: The materials and design of the plastic extruded plates are chosen to withstand the elements, ensuring long-term performance and reliability. |
Advantages |
High thermal insulation Low electrical conductivity for energy efficiency High resistance to compression, allowing easy adhesion of the panels to walls or floors Dimensional stability with temperature and humidity Low vapour permeability Lightweight, manoeuvrable and easy to apply, XPS can be cut with a knife without special tools and fixed with wallpaper adhesive Long lasting insulation |
Application |
For concrete slabs, green roofs, edge beams, cavity walls, external walls and cool rooms. Specifically as follows. basements and walls. masonry cavity walls. floor bearing floors. suspended concrete floors. Partitioned floors. underfloor heating systems. exposed soffits. pitched roofs. green/paved roofs. |
Main Functions |
Due to its high resistance to water absorption, extruded polystyrene can be used for floor insulation beneath concrete slabs and on inverted roofs where its mechanical damage caused by pedestrian traffic is an advantage. Polystyrene can also be laminated to tongue and groove damp-proof flooring grade chipboard, applied directly to concrete floor slabs and laminated to gypsum board as wallboard. |
