HIGH QUALITY THERMAL INSULATION WITH UNIQUE PROPERTIES
ISOBOARD is a rigid extruded polystyrene board used for thermal insulation. It is manufactured via a fully automated extrusion process to international specifications and standards. ISOBOARD extruded polystyrene has a closed cell structure, giving it a range of properties very different from common expanded polystyrene.
These properties are:
- High resistance to heat flow (i.e. low thermal
conductivity);
- High resistance to water vapour diffusion
and water absorbability;
- Uniform density distribution for dimensional
stability;
- High compressive strength;
- Fire resistance (a fire retardant is added);
- Ageing resistance (ISOBOARD’S properties
are retained over time);
- Resistance to bacteria and micro-organism
growth;
- Ecologically friendly (no CFC's are used in
manufacture);
With the ever-increasing realisation of the importance of energy conservation, these properties make ISOBOARD a cost-effective building resource where a thermally controlled environment is a design requirement.
