Foamular Metric XPS insulation for roofing and waterproofing
Foamular Metric XPS insulation is perfectly suited to use in membrane
protection on concrete roofs, balconies, decks and plaza applications. The closed cell
construction means Foamular Metric will maintain its ability to insulate in the presence
of water for the long term.
The material also has high compressive strength suitable for use under walking or
vehicular traffic surfaces.
Foamular Metric XPS has high compressive strength, density and thermal resistance (comp
strength 250kpa minimum, density 35kg/m³ avg, thermal resistance, 50mm = R 1.78).
Most common applications will have the Foamular Metric placed directly over the applied
membrane. The insulation is then covered by an appropriate filter fabric. It is essential
that all insulation is covered by the protective filter fabric as it is laid.
To keep the system in place use a specified ballast of river stones or concrete paving over
the insulated area.
Prior to laying the insulation, applicator must ensure compatibility of insulation and
membrane. The site must be free of any products that can damage the insulation such as
petroleum, solvents, adhesives or other such materials. Foamular Metric XPS is not
recommended for applications where sustained temperatures exceed 75°C.
