THERMIT XPS
Extruded polystyrene (XPS) is a multi-purpose thermal insulation material. It is used in manufacturing modern and high performance thermal insulation material THERMIT XPS, THERMIT SP construction boards and THERMIT S sandwich panels.
Extrusion method allows attaining from polystyrene feedstock and special additives a homogeneous microstructure with closed impermeable cells which are filled with gas. Such structure ensures low thermal conductivity, humidity resistance and high durability.
THERMIT XPS is an excellent thermal insulation material. It has got the lowest coefficient of thermal conductivity among thermal insulation materials used in building. Application of THERMIT XPS extruded polystyrene as an insulation material allows saving money on heating (as it implies a low heating demand), reducing the weight of engineering structures, lowering consumption of other building materials and extending the service life of engineering structures.
Field of application
In today’s world where energy supply costs increase day by day application of thermal insulation materials is absolutely indispensable. Due to complex thermal insulation of the building you can save up to 70% of energy on heating. No other measures but thermal insulation allow saving such an amount of energy and therefore of money.
Moreover, if walls, basement and roof aren’t exposed to temperature differentials, their service life is much longer. Application of modern materials allows reducing the weight of engineering structures, which makes building cheaper and faster.
THERMIT XPS thermal insulation is widely used in civil engineering, industrial and transport construction. Using THERMIT XPS you can insulate both buildings under construction and existing buildings and constructions.
Using THERMIT XPS is the most rational solution in extreme conditions such as low temperatures, high humidity, ground and vegetation contact, high load of surfaces and high compression load.
Efficient thermal insulation allows creating a favorable microclimate in premises which is extremely important in both residential buildings and public places. THERMIT XPS extruded polystyrene is chemically inert and does not emit any harmful substances. Its application complies with all relevant hygiene codes and regulations for residential buildings and public places.
In industrial construction THERMIT XPS extruded polystyrene of higher density (grade 45) is used. It is the most efficient solution for road, railroad beds and airport runways thermal insulation, thermal insulation of heavy duty floors and gas and oil pipelines.
