STYROFOAM* Brand Insulation significantly reduces energy loss through above ground walls and underground basement walls of new and existing buildings. It maintains its structural and thermal integrity, and is able to withstand the rough handling that typically occurs at the building site.

PERIMATE* DI Insulation is designed for use on exterior basement walls because it has a unique drainage system: vertical channels cut in the face of the board drain water away, while a thin layer of filter fabric bonded to the surface prevents soil particles from blocking the channels.

STYROFOAM IB and LB Insulation improve the thermal performance of existing walls without affecting the appearance of the building. STYROFOAM LB Insulation is used when a higher thermal performance is required. The insulation is lightweight and easy to cut, making it suitable for use around existing details. STYROFOAM IB and LB Insulation can be adhered to or mechanically fixed to the existing walls.

With its ready-keyed surface, it provides an ideal substrate for light plastering, and rendering. When factory bonded to gypsum board, it is an ideal insulated dry lining product. It can also be used as an external or internal insulation, as well as cold roof applications and soffit insulation.
