Sagex EPS - Polystyrene

Sagex is Isovers EPS division manufacturing a range of rigid polystyrene solutions.
 

Sagex EPS offers a choice of lightweight, high compressive strength and water resistant insulation solutions for use in industrial, commercial and domestic applications.


The use of EPS for thermal insulation results in significant energy savings, drastically decreasing the emission of polluting gasses, which contributes to reducing the greenhouse gas effect.

Expanded Polystyrene, or EPS for short


 
Sagex EPS

EPS is a lightweight, rigid, plastic foam insulation material produced from solid beads of polystyrene. Expanded Polystyrene (EPS) contains no CFC`s and is considered ozone friendly by the Wildlife Society of South Africa. EPS products are positioned for operating temperatures from -110°C to 70°C.

EPS is a rigid foam insulation material produced from solid beads of polystyrene (with a diameter of 0,2 to 0,3mm). Expansion is achieved by virtue of small amounts of pentane gas that is dissolved into the polystyrene base material during production.

The gas expands under the action of heat, applied as steam, to form perfectly closed cells of EPS. These cells occupy up to 50 times the volume of the original polystyrene bead. During the expansion process the EPS beads are moulded into blocks. EPS blocks can be cut into sheets or a variety of shapes to suit the application.
