There are significant changes underway in the supply of Styrofoam the market leading extruded polystyrene. During 2018 Dow Chemical will cease the manufacture of blue Styrofoam and replace with a new improved product called Xenergy Styrofoam. This product will be grey in colour and offer the same mechanical properties but will provide improved thermal performance. The process of winding down stocks of blue Styrofoam is already underway with some grades already exhausted such as RTM, these will be supplied in the new improved grade of Xenergy. Other grades will be phased in over coming months. Full technical data sheets on the new improved product are available to download here and here.

Styrocladeco upstand board is designed to withstand extreme climatic and working conditions and offers excellent impact resistance. It has a smooth grey surface and requires no finishing.

The benefits:

  • Reduces cold bridging on parapets and upstands
  • Integral impact / weather resistant facing and dimensionally stable
  • Long term high performance insulation
  • Self-finished and requires no decoration
  • Easy to cut and lightweight to handle, enabling speedy dry installation
  • 56mm board achieves a Thermal Resistance of 1.70 m2K/W

We offer a range of Styrocladeco options to meet building regulations, including thermal performance requirements and fire standards.

Styrocladeco is a factory bonded composite comprising 6mm Cembrit MP and Styrofoam. Cembrit Multi Purpose is a high-density fibre-cement board designed to withstand extreme climatic and working conditions. It offers excellent impact resistance, with a smooth grey surface and requires no finishing. Cembrit MP is fire rated as Class A1 to EN 13501-1:2007

Styrofoam is a blue extruded polystyrene and combines low thermal conductivity and high resistance to moisture to ensure permanent long-term insulation. Styrofoam is extruded with the use of a blowing agent. Styrocladeco uses A-grade foam which is extruded using carbon dioxide as the blowing agent. The ODP and GWP of the carbon dioxide blowing agent are Zero and One respectively.

Styrocladeco is available in a standard panel size of 1200mm x 600mm x 56mm (overall thickness). Other panel thicknesses are manufactured to order.

Styroclad can be designed and manufactured to any thickness to achieve a required thermal resistance.

Applications

Styroclad can be designed and manufactured to any thickness to achieve a required thermal resistance.

Exposed Floor Slab/Soffit
Styroclad is the simple solution for the insulation of an exposed floor slab. It is easy to install requires no finishing and is unaffected by weather conditions.

Roof Upstand & Parapet
Styroclad is suitable for use as a fully external panel where insulation is required on an upstand/parapet. Styroclad ensures there are no cold bridging problems where the roof insulation meets the upstand.

Installation

Styrocladeco can be cut on site to the required size using a TCT saw(dust levels may require the use of face masks). The boards should be mechanically fixed directly to the upstand wall along the top edge. This can be achieved through the board face at maximum 600mm centres, with fixings positioned a minimum 50mm / maximum 150mm from the edge of the board. Mechanical fixings should penetrate the substrate a minimum of 25mm. If the bottom edge of the board is not to be physically retained by the roof deck insulation, an additional row of mechanical fixings will be required. When an uneven surface exists, adhesives may also be used at the contractor’s discretion. These should not contain solvents that may attack Styrofoam. Finally a decorative flashing must be fitted along the top edge to minimise moisture penetration behind the boards.

Cutting
Styrocladeco can be cut using normal site cutting tools including circular saws and fine toothed saws.
Handling & Storage
Styrocladeco is packed on pallets with limited weather protection. Pallets should always be stored on flat ground and if materials are likely to remain exposed for long periods, then additional protection of the pallet will be required. Boards that have been allowed to get wet should not be used. When boards are removed from the pallet, they should be stored flat and in a dry area.
