Extruded Polystyrene Sheets: The Eco-Friendly Choice
Foamex introduces the Styroboard™ range as their flagship products. Through consistent innovation, the product development team at Foamex has achieved a sophisticated manufacturing process for not only expanded polystyrene foam but for extruded polystyrene as well. Boasting energy-efficient insulation power, Styroboard™ has received outstanding feedback from home builders, engineers, architects and specifiers alike.

Styroboard™ extruded polystyrene sheets have become the premier choice in structural and civil engineering. While expanded polystyrene offers greater flexibility and versatility, extruded polystyrene provides higher long-term R-values and thermal performance. Along with superior compressive strength, these features of extruded polystyrene make it the viable solution for insulation in floors, foundation perimeters, roof spacers and inverted roofs.
