EPS is an extremely versatile product and is the most practical, economic and efficient insulation material - Styrocore


Styrocore is a manufacturer of quality expanded polystyrene products. Expanded Polystyrene (EPS) is a closed cell light weight rigid cellular plastics material.

EPS is an extremely versatile product and is the most practical, economic and efficient insulation material which can be applied to all areas of building construction, including stressed skin insulated sandwich panels, packaging, ceilings, roofs, walls, floors and underslab - to provide superior standards of thermal insulation.

With today's stringent construction requirements, more than ever expanded polystyrene is fulfilling the requirements of energy and cost efficient building methods. With its unique combination of outstanding performance characteristics and cost efficient R value, EPS has an outstanding history in industrial, residential, commercial and architectural applications. As the core material of stressed skin metal sandwich panels, EPS provides the perfect insulation material for controlled environment building such as cold storage facilities.

EPS is one of the most resistant to the effects of moisture of all materials used for insulation applications. The loss of R Value due to water absorbtion is minimal. However, care should be taken to keep EPS dry before and during installation. The decay in thermal resistance caused by moisture is considerably less for EPS than for either extruded polystyrene foam or cellular glass.
