Stylite EPS Flooring Insulation - Flooring Insulation

Stylite Flooring Insulation is manufactured from Expanded Polystyrene (EPS) and can be used in a wide variety of floor applications, for both domestic and industrial, to meet or exceed current Building Regulations for thermal performance.

The most common applications are above or below ground supported concrete slab, and suspended concrete or timber ground floors. The insulation boards are easy to install without the need for special tools and are available in a range of grades and sizes to suit individual project requirements.

Expanded Polystyrene is rot proof, Expanded Polystyrene is not affected by bacteria, moulds or fungi, and will not provide nutrient value for insects or vermin. Expanded Polystyrene does not lose any performance over time and will remain an effective insulation for the life of the building.

Features and benefits:

Stylite Expanded Polystyrene will achieve reaction to fire Euroclass F. However, the classification achieved when installing in a building will be considerably better. Also available is an FRA grades which contain a Fire Retardant Additive and achieve reaction to fire Euroclass E.

Moisture Resistance & Breathability Stylite Expanded Polystyrene is hydrophobic and highly resistant to the absorption of water but will allow a very minimal amount of water vapour transfer. Expanded Polystyrene is often utilised with a suitable damp proof membrane or vapour control layer to avoid any unwanted water ingress.

The Stylite Expanded Polystyrene does not contain HFC’s, CFC’s or HCFC’s. Expanded Polystyrene has a Global Warming Potential (GWP) of zero and a low O-Zone Depletion Potential (ODP). Expanded Polystyrene is 100% recyclable.
