Styroboard polystyrene sheets are highly versatile expanded polystyrene, ideal for use across building and construction applications as well as retail and creative applications.
A registered trademark of Foamex, Australian-made Styroboard EPS products have been servicing Australia’s building, construction and signage industries for more than 30 years. Strong, durable and lightweight, expanded polystyrene foam is a well-proven insulation material for both commercial and residential construction applications; from floors to internal walls, coolrooms and even landscaping.
Durable and long-lasting, polystyrene foam products are lightweight for easy installation, offer outstanding acoustic benefits, and provide superior thermal performance. Weather-resistant and CFC-free, all Foamex products are manufactured locally according to Australian Standards, and comply with Australian Building Codes.
EPS polystyrene fire properties
All Styroboard EPS products are manufactured from a fire-retardant raw material and do not present a fire hazard when correctly installed. Like other organic materials, polystyrene will burn when in contact with a flame, but it will self-extinguish when the fire source is removed.
Polystyrene foam environmental properties
No ozone-depleting or CFC gases are produced during the manufacture of Styroboard EPS products. For each kilogram of oil used in the manufacturing process, savings of up to 200kg of heating fuel can be made over the average life of a house. In turn, this plays a positive role in reducing carbon dioxide emissions and the effects of global warming.
