FLOORMATE 500-A
FLOORMATE™ 500-A is manufactured using naturally occurring CO2 as the blowing agent and is designed for high load bearing floors. FLOORMATE 500-A has all the qualities of the STYROFOAM™ range - low water absorption, ease of installation and excellent insulating properties. FLOORMATE 500-A qualifies for a Code for Sustainable Homes credit.
Further information on designing with FLOORMATE insulation can be found at Insulating with STYROFOAM: Insulating Floors.
