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 does EXPOL-X protect retaining walls?
Because of its superior water tightness, EXPOL-X protects the waterproofing membrane or tanking from water ingress or damage from the backfill material (scoria). EXPOL-X also insulates retaining walls from extreme fluctuations in temperature.
Is EXPOL-X durable?
The closed cell structure of EXPOL-X gives it resistance to moisture and compression, ensuring that insulation performance will last the lifespan of the building. Extruded polystyrene insulation (XPS) is often used under roads, rail tracks and other load-bearing applications.
What size does EXPOL-X come in?
EXPOL-X comes in one size, 2500mm x 600mm sheets.
Does EXPOL-X help with drainage?
No. EXPOL-X is not a drainage material. EXPOL StyroDrain is a lightweight solution for retaining wall drainage.
Where can I purchase EXPOL-X from?
Mitre 10, Bunnings, Carters, ITM, TimberWorld, BuildLink and other Nationwide hardware outlets.
