EXPOL CONCRETE FLOOR EDGE INSULATION
EXPOL’s range of concrete floor (slab) edge insulation products provide thermal insulation and strength where it counts. Up to 10% of heat loss from a building is through the concrete slab. A building with slab edge insulation provides a warm, dry and healthy indoor environment for occupants, and reduces heating and cooling costs.
MAXEdge and EXPOL ThermaSlab Edge won’t degrade over time, meaning thermal insulation performance is maintained for the life of the building. EXPOL concrete floor edge insulation is suitable for both residential and commercial building projects.
Compared to other insulation, EPS offers superior resistance to the ingress of water. Samples of EPS retrieved after 30 years in the ground showed less than 1% water content by volume. Boards periodically submerged over the same amount of time showed less than 4% water content.
