Technical Details
POFIX XPS
Extruded polystyrene foam boards as a load-bearing layer and/or thermal insulation outside the waterproofing
The extruded polystyrene foam boards are intended to be used as load-bearing layers and/or thermal insulation outside the waterproofing. The boards are laid uniformly on the substrate to which they are applied. In particular, the following applications are intended:
- Load bearing and thermal insulation underneath foundation slabs
- External horizontal and vertical thermal insulation of in-ground constructions in non-structural applications (also in the case of groundwater)
- Inverted roof insulation (including park deck and green roof applications).
Usage
According to the section on the usage of the product, the performance only applies if the thermal insulation boards are installed according to the manufacturer’s instructions and are protected from precipitation, wetting, or weathering during transport and storage before installation.
The respective national regulations shall also be observed concerning the application of the thermal insulation boards.
