Extruded Polystyrene Foam Boards – XPS Insulation Supplier

Stacked Extruded Polystyrene Foam Boards for insulation

Extruded Polystyrene Foam Boards deliver high-performance thermal insulation, making them a top choice across construction and industrial sectors. Specifically, manufacturers produce these boards using a continuous extrusion process, which enhances their thermal resistance, moisture resistance, compressive strength, and long-term durability. As a result, Basekim proudly supplies a diverse range of Extruded Polystyrene Foam Boards to meet the evolving insulation needs of global markets.

Whether you focus on commercial buildings, residential projects, or infrastructure development, you can rely on XPS to consistently deliver effective insulation—even under extreme conditions.

What Are XPS Boards?

Extruded Polystyrene Foam Boards, also known as XPS, are rigid foam insulation panels made from polystyrene polymer. During manufacturing, polystyrene resin is melted and mixed with additives, then extruded to form continuous sheets that are later cut into various sizes and thicknesses.

Thanks to their closed-cell structure, Extruded Polystyrene Foam Boards resist water absorption, retain a high insulation value (R-value), and maintain excellent compressive strength. Consequently, these features make XPS boards the perfect choice for insulating foundations, walls, roofs, and floors.

Key Features of XPS

  • High compressive strength

  • Low water absorption

  • Excellent thermal insulation (High R-Value)

  • Resistant to mold, mildew, and decay

  • Lightweight and easy to install

  • Long-term dimensional stability

  • Eco-friendly and recyclable

Applications of Extruded Polystyrene Foam Boards

Extruded Polystyrene Foam Boards are suitable for a wide range of applications across residential, commercial, and industrial projects:

1. Wall Insulation

XPS boards are used in both internal and external wall insulation systems to improve energy efficiency and reduce heating and cooling costs.

2. Roof Insulation

Thanks to their water resistance and strength, XPS Boards are perfect for insulating flat and pitched roofs, including inverted roofs and green roofs.

3. Floor Insulation

In most construction projects, builders install XPS beneath concrete slabs and screeds to prevent heat loss; moreover, this method significantly improves energy efficiency in buildings.

4. Foundation and Basement Insulation

Due to their resistance to moisture and pressure, XPS boards are ideal for insulating foundations, basements, and underground structures.

5. Cold Storage and Refrigeration

As a result of their excellent thermal stability, Extruded Polystyrene Foam Boards maintain consistent temperatures; therefore, professionals frequently choose them for cold rooms, warehouses, and refrigerated transport systems.

6. Infrastructure Projects

XPS insulation is used in highways, railways, airports, and parking decks to provide thermal protection and structural support.

Benefits of Using Extruded Polystyrene Foam Boards

Extruded Polystyrene Foam Boards are preferred in insulation projects due to the following advantages:

  • Thermal Efficiency: High R-value ensures excellent thermal insulation with minimal thickness.

  • Water Resistance: Closed-cell structure repels moisture, preventing damage in wet environments.

  • Durability: Long lifespan under heavy loads and extreme temperatures.

  • Energy Saving: Reduces energy consumption and utility costs significantly.

  • Cost-Effective: Offers a balance between performance and price for large-scale projects.

  • Environmentally Friendly: Manufactured with recyclable materials and has low environmental impact.

Common Questions (FAQ)

What is the difference between XPS and EPS?

XPS (Extruded Polystyrene) is denser and has a more uniform closed-cell structure than EPS (Expanded Polystyrene), giving it better thermal performance and moisture resistance.

Can XPS boards be used in wet environments?

Yes, Extruded Polystyrene Foam Boards are highly water-resistant and suitable for underground or wet-area insulation.

Are your XPS boards fire-retardant?

We offer standard boards as well as fire-retardant XPS boards rated B1 and B2 upon request.

Can I order custom thickness or branded boards?

Yes. Basekim offers OEM services, including custom thickness, dimensions, and branding on the boards or packaging.

Do you offer delivery to my country?

We export globally. Our logistics team arranges delivery from Dubai and Turkey to ports worldwide.
