 Performance. Installation. Durability.
Versatility. Whether it's the foam's closed
cell structure, unique slots and grooves that ease
installation, or specialized facings for extra
strength and durability, added R-value and moisture
resistance, you'll appreciate the superior performance of
STYROFOAM insulation products:
R-Value– A measurement
of resistance to heat flow. The greater the R-value, the
greater the thermal efficiency—and a small increase
makes a big difference. Cavity insulation only insulates
between the studs, leaving those studs un-insulated. Rigid
insulation covers the entire wall, providing a continuous
layer of thermal protection and increasing the overall
R-value and energy efficiency.
Moisture Resistance – Some
insulation products absorb and hold water which reduces
insulation performance and is one of the necessary conditions
for mold growth. STYROFOAM extruded polystyrene insulation
resists water absorption and does not provide a nutrient
source for molds. It offers the highest moisture resistance
of any foam plastic insulation, provides long-term insulating
performance while reducing the potential for mold growth
within the insulation. The polyisocyanurate insulation
products do not readily absorb moisture and do not provide
a nutrient source for molds.
Strength and Durability – STYROFOAM
insulation is rigid, so it's durable and maintains its
integrity during installation and for years after. Yet,
it's easy to cut.
