EXPOL PLATINUM BOARD PREMIUM POLYSTYRENE SHEET
EXPOL Platinum Board (Graphite Infused – Premium Expanded Polystyrene Sheet)
Is the ideal product for timber and steel framed buildings and under concrete floor (slab) insulation. The addition of graphite to EPS – expanded polystyrene creates a product that offers one of the most effective forms of interior insulation available.
Resistant to moisture, EXPOL Platinum Board (Graphite Infused – Premium Expanded Polystyrene Sheet) is an excellent choice for wall cavities as it does not allow moisture to transfer from the exterior cladding to interior wall linings.
Where superior R-value, moisture resistance and flexible sizing is required, EXPOL Platinum Board (Graphite Infused – Premium Expanded Polystyrene Sheet) is your best choice. For a cost effective interior insulation, use EXPOL ThermaSlab (Standard EPS – Expanded Polystyrene) SL Grade.

FAQs
What is R-Value?
An R-Value is a rating which measures how well insulation can resist heat flow. ‘R’ stands for thermal resistance.
- R-Value level depends on a number of things such as the type
of material, its density and thickness. - Higher R-Value = Better insulation.
How effective is EXPOL Platinum Board for thermal insulation?
With added graphite, EXPOL Platinum Board gives better thermal performance (R-Value) than other Expanded Polystyrene (EPS) boards.
Made of 98% trapped air, Expanded Polystyrene (EPS) demonstrates excellent thermal insulation properties.
Is EXPOL Platinum Board durable?
The structure of Expanded Polystyrene (EPS) creates block rigidity. Expanded Polystyrene (EPS) does not settle over time, thus ensuring the thermal performance (R-Value) for the life of the building.
Does EXPOL Platinum Board give off toxic fumes?
In the event of a fire, the level of toxicity of EXPOL Platinum Board is no greater than timber.
Is EXPOL Platinum Board water and moisture resistant?
The closed cell construction of Expanded Polystyrene (EPS) ensures it resists any adverse effects of water.
Can I glue the sheets of Platinuim Board to the wall?
Yes, best adhesive to use is Styro-FIX.
Is Platinum Board Recyclable?
Yes it is and at EXPOL we actively recycle polystyrene waste and produce other products with it
Where can I purchase EXPOL Platinum Board from?
Mitre 10, Bunnings, Carters, ITM, PlaceMakers, TimberWorld, BuildLink and other Nationwide hardware outlets.
