Features & Benefits
-
High compressive strength: EPS100 rating ensures 100kPa resistance, suitable for non-structural flooring and insulation applications.
-
Lightweight composition: Easy to handle, cut, and fit with standard tools, reducing installation time.
-
Multi-application suitability: Compatible with floors, walls, and roofs in both new-build and retrofit projects.
-
Board size 2400mm x 1200mm x 100mm: Provides maximum thickness within the EPS100 range for deeper void filling and standard-grade insulation performance.
Applications
-
Floor insulation: Suitable beneath screeds, ground-bearing slabs, or suspended floors where compressive stability is required.
-
Wall lining and cavity fill: Offers modest thermal resistance in internal linings or cavity walls.
-
Roof insulation: Applicable in flat or pitched roof systems under membranes or deck coverings.
-
Perimeter insulation: Ensures continuity of insulation around slab edges or external walls.
Installation Guidance
-
Surface preparation: Ensure substrate is level, clean, and dry before laying boards.
-
Board fixing: Lay boards tightly with staggered joints to prevent thermal bridging.
-
Adhesive or mechanical fixing: Use approved insulation adhesives or fixings suited to substrate and application.
-
Cutting: Trim boards with a fine-toothed saw or hot wire cutter for accurate fitting.
-
Protection: Avoid prolonged UV exposure and protect from solvents or hydrocarbons.
- Material: Expanded polystyrene
- Compressive strength: 100kPa
- Conforms to: BS EN 131
