SA Thermal Insulation Boards EPS (B1 and B2) - SA EPS

EPS Boards /Expanded Polystyrene Boards

SA Insulation's expanded polystyrene is a rigid, lightweight thermoplastic, closed cell foam plastic. By controlling the density of the expanding beads during the manufacturing process, we produce custom made insulation to the specific requirements of all the building applications. Our EPS boards are made of a unique fire resistance quality and are available in a wide range of sizes and shapes for all insulation applications of new buildings and renovations.

The board is made of thousands of closed alveolate particulars, which is composed by 98% air and 2% polystyrene. This structure can save the air and keep the thermal insulation property

Description

SA EPS Board is a graphite impregnated expanded polystyrene bead board, designed to provide enhanced thermal performance. Lightweight, easy to handle and store, cut on site or form building features, SA-EPS Board is a cost effective and durable insulation product.

SA Insulation EPS characteristics:

• Low thermal conductivity
• High permanent R-value
• High compressive strength
• Excellent shock absorption
• Excellent dimensional stability
• Inherently resistant to water
• Reflective white color
• Non-dusting
• Will not rot, mildew or support bacterial growth
• Resistant to most acids and alkalis

SA-EPS Board is for use with external render systems. The boards can be either adhered and mechanically fixed or just mechanically fixed to the substrate then overlaid with a mesh and render system to the SA specification.

If SA-EPS Board is to be used over 3 storeys in height then there will be a requirement to incorporate rock mineral wool fire barriers. During hot weather, if the elevation is not going to be rendered for some time, then protect from sunlight to avoid the possibility of thermal expansion. SA-EPS Board should not be use if within 1 metre of another building.

Durability

SA-EPS Board is nonhygroscopic, moisture resistant, rot proof, does not sustain vermin and will not encourage

the growth of fungi, mould or bacteria.

Environmental

SA-EPS Board is free from CFCs, HCFCs and any other material with ozone depletion potential in its

manufacture and content and represents no known threat to the environment. SA-EPS Board has a Global

Warming Potential of less than 5.

Handling and storage

SA-EPS Board is easy to handle and install, being lightweight and easily cut to size. SA-EPS Board is supplied

in polythene packs and should be stored off the ground. Avoid prolonged storage in direct sunlight

SA Insulation EPS benefits:

• Low material/installation costs
• Broad range of densities and sizes
• Easy to handle and apply
• Simple to cut and shape
• Tolerates broad range of temperatures
• Restricts moisture penetration
• Does NOT deplete the Earth's ozone layer
• Easy to recycle

Remarks

• The temperature of air and glue must be from 5°C~35°C
• Avoid sunshine, high temperature and freezing
• Avoid strong wind during application
• Avoid rain during application
• Polystyrene board must be applied closely one by one. The width of the gap must be less than 2mm, otherwise fill it with polystyrene strip. It is forbidden to to fill with glue between two boards
• The level deviation between two boards must be less than 1.5mm
