Tech Spec

Technical Specification

Thermal

The thermal conductivity of Polyfoam Laminating Board is 0.033W/mK.

Vapour resistivity

Polyfoam Laminating Board – 625MNs/g.m, when tested in accordance with EN 12086.

Moisture absorption

The moisture absorption of Polyfoam Laminating Board is 0.7% by volume when tested in accordance with EN 12087.

Moisture resistance

Polyfoam Laminating Board is resistant to moisture absorption and can be installed in standing water, high humidity factory conditions or up against wet surfaces with negligible impact on the performance of the product.

Environmental

Polyfoam Laminating Board represents no known threat to the environment, has zero Ozone Depletion Potential (ODP) and is manufactured in the UK using a blowing agent with a low Global Warming Potential (GWP). Polyfoam Laminating Board is non bio-degradable and 100% recyclable.

Durability

The continuous service temperature limits of Polyfoam Laminating Board are -50 to +70º C.

Compressive Strength

Polyfoam Laminating Board is highly resistant to compression and can withstand both occasional and long term static loads. Load bearing construction elements should be designed to adequately support the combination of imposed and dead loads without creating excessive deflection.

Handling & Storage

Polyfoam Laminating Board is supplied on a pallet secured with tape and designed to be easily recognised and labelled with identifying product and manufacturing data. The boards are easy to handle and protective clothing is not required when installing them. Ensure the boards are not stored close to open flames or other ignition sources and avoid volatile organic compounds and chemicals such as solvents.

Polyfoam Laminating Board should not be left exposed to prolonged sunlight as this will result in surface degradation. When outside storage for extended periods is required cover the products with opaque/light coloured sheeting.

Proudly made in Britain with green focused credentials

Polyfoam XPS Ltd is a leading manufacturer of closed cell, extruded polystyrene insulation. The Polyfoam range is lightweight, strong, moisture resistant and easy to cut and shape, providing thermal performance and strength for the lifetime of the building.

Manufactured in the UK using a blowing agent with low global warming potential (GWP) and zero ozone depletion potential (ODP), Polyfoam XPS products are free from CFCs and HCFCs.

They have Environmental Product Declarations (EPDs) and raw material procurement is certified to BES 6001 (Responsible Sourcing of Construction Products).

About us

Polyfoam are always very helpful and provide information very quickly. The product is good and is still covered by a BBA certificate and is suitable for use in below slab ground floors on large buildings so it is perfect for what we need.

Adrian

With its British Board of Agrement (BBA) certificate I was reassured that Polyfoam insulation had all the right accreditations and could provide sufficient compressive strength to carry the applied loads.

Jon Chadwick

Architect & Self Builder

Installing an insulation product that was highly resistant to moisture absorption and could provide a line of defence against moisture penetration from the concrete slab was particularly needed for our project. What’s more, as XPS is a lightweight material it meant that installation was very quick and easy, which resulted in us coming across no problems and keeping on track in order to complete the projects on time.
