floors, waterproof protection for block walls and roof insulation. ThermaSlab has excellent thermal properties, is water resistant, easy to cut and lightweight, making it the first choice when choosing
insulation materials.

Concrete Floor Insulation

EXPOL supplies both EPS and XPS for under concrete slab insulation. Depending on the application, one product will be more suitable than the other. EXPOL ThermaSlab S and H

EXPOL ThermaSlab S and H are the most cost effective products for insulating under a concrete slab. These densities will suit most residential floors and will achieve R values above building regulations.

EXPOL ThermaSlab VH would normally be required in commercial applications where very high loads are probable. Also see EXPOL-X for these situations.

For other products suitable for under concrete insulation, refer to our solution guide here.

Retaining WallsEXPOL ThermaSlab Retaining Walls

For protection of the waterproof membrane when using gravel / scoria for drainage, EXPOL supplies ThermaSlab sheets in a range of thicknesses, but recommends 20mm or 40mm depending on the situation.

EXPOL ThermaSlab is standard EPS available in a range of thicknesses to suit the specific requirements. 20mm is common practice for most retaining walls, whereas 40mm is recommended when the retaining wall is higher than 1.2 metres or where the gravel / scoria will be more likely to damage the waterproof membrane. For more information refer to our product solution guide here.

SKILLION ROOF INSULATION

SKILLION ROOF INSULATIONEXPOL provides solid insulation solutions to solve the difficulties in achieving high R values in narrow roof spaces. EXPOL ThermaSlab is standard EPS available in a variety of grades to suit the application, supplied in full sheets or cut to suit purlin / rafter spacings (see Table below).

For more information refer to our product solution guide here.

Cladding Insulation

Thermaslab Cladding InsulationEXPOL supplies both EPS and XPS sheets for EIFS cladding systems. EXPOL's EPS sheets have been tested and satisfy all the requirements necessary to be listed as a preferred provider for all EIFS systems. ThermaSlab for cladding solutions has been kiln dried and stabilised to ensure minimal shrinkage.
