Expanded Polystyrene – EPS (Thermacol)
Expanded Polystyrene – EPS (Thermacol)
Expanded Polystyrene (EPS), commonly known as Thermacol, is a lightweight, rigid foam material made from expanded polystyrene beads. During manufacturing, small beads are expanded with steam and then molded into blocks, sheets, or custom shapes. The result is a closed-cell, cushioning material with excellent insulation properties.
EPS is widely used in construction, packaging, and industrial applications due to its low weight, cost-effectiveness, and thermal performance.
