What is Geofoam?
Geofoam consists of closed cell extended polystyrene (EPS) and meets or exceeds the necessities of ASTM D6817 Standard Specification for Rigid Cellular Polystyrene Geofoam. EPS Geofoam is ultra-lightweight material that gives simple taking care of and also environment friendly and good with conventional construction materials. It is lighter than that of most fill materials, EPACK Geofoam is financially savvy and does not regularly require surcharging, preloading, and arranging frequently necessary in construction applications. EPACK Geofoam is environmentally friendly and 100% recyclable, containing no HCFCs or formaldehyde.
With greater stability, and long term R-value, EPACK India Geofoam opposes bugs, shape, deterioration and serious climate conditions, including freeze-thaw cycles and moisture. The thickness of EPS Geofoam used for the construction of pavements ought to be more than 15kg/m3 concerns identified with the quality and the durability of the material.
Geofoam is an application where EPS Thermocol blocks are used as an elective fill material for road construction ventures. For construction projects under time requirements or when soil conditions won’t support the weight of a conventionally built road, Geofoam is a material of decision because of the speed of establishment and the decreased settling time. EPS is fundamentally lighter than soil and other lightweight fills and is exceptionally quick to introduce, giving this EPS application a demonstrated execution record in road construction projects for over 30 years.
