Specially designed with smooth high-density skins, STYROFOAM™ Brand DECKMATE™ Insulation provides superior performance in conventional low-slope roof applications.

STYROFOAM™ Brand DECKMATE™ Insulation is a Type X extruded polystyrene foam product designed for use in conventional low-slope roof applications. It can be installed directly on structural steel decks beneath a sheet membrane or a standing seam metal roof, eliminating the need for a thermal barrier such as gypsum board.

Building Code Compliance

Complies with ASTM C578 Type X. Meets CAN/ULC S701 Type 2. Meets IBC/IRC requirements for foam plastic insulation. See ESR-2142, BOCA-ES RR 21-02, CCMC – Evaluation Listing #12085-L. UL Classified, see Classification Certificate D369.

(1) Not all product sizes are available in all regions.

(2) R means resistance to heat flow. The higher the R-value, the greater the insulating power. R-values are expressed in ft2• h•°F/Btu. R-value determined by ASTM C518. RSI values are expressed in m2°C/W. R-value determined by ASTM C518.

(3) Vertical compressive strength is measured at 10% deformation (5% for STYROFOAM™ Brand PLAZAMATE™ Insulation and for STYROFOAM™ Brand HIGHLOAD 40, 60 and 100 Insulation products) or at yield, whichever occurs first. Since STYROFOAM™ Brand Extruded Polystyrene and Dow polyisocyanurate insulation products are visco-elastic materials, adequate design safety factors should be used to prevent long-term creep. For static loads, 3:1 is suggested. For dynamic loads, 5:1 is suggested.
