Extruded polystyrene insulation

Product description

Description
▪   XPS is made from polystyrene – a thermoplastic material. This means it can be melted and put into production process for new XPS insulation.
▪   XPS (Extruded Poly Styrene) is the choice of GREEN, friendly and environmentally protective buildings, which based on some features reduce energy consumption, reused as raw materials for production, Recycle .
▪   Recent studies shown that with the use of XPS for commercial buildings, every year already 343-344 kWh/m2 could be saved. (source: http://www.styroor.de).
Applications
▪   Due to its mechanical rigidity, TEKCOM XPS is used as insulation material, moisture-resistant for concrete floors, basements.
▪   The use of XPS in the projects could help they achieve LEED certificate of Green Building Council of the United State
