There are many applications in civil engineering where XPS boards are currently used in order to assure a better protection for different climatic conditions, reduction of energy consumption, greater living comfort, Increase of life time and value of buildings:

The application of foam is extremely wide and spread over different fields: Expanded foam produces panels for constructions, sheets for thermoforming, profiles for packaging, Insulation tubes, microwave sheets...

XPS foam has an innate combination of properties that make it one of the most efficient insulating materials available. The closed-cell structure, responsible for the foam's excellent moisture resistance, also contributes to its high compressive strength and superior thermal performance.
