EPS
Expandable Polystyrene
Expandable polystyrene beads for insulation board, packaging and shape moulding.
01 Overview
EPS is supplied as pre-impregnated beads containing pentane blowing agent, expanded and moulded by the converter. Bead size fraction determines the achievable density and surface finish, and flame-retardant grades are required for most construction insulation applications.
02 Grades traded
- Standard (non-FR) grades
- Flame retardant (FR) grades
- Fine bead — packaging & moulding
- Coarse bead — block & board

07 Supply & export note
EPS has a limited shelf life — pentane loss degrades expansion performance over time — so we ship on a first-produced-first-shipped basis and state the production date on the offer. Storage guidance is issued with every consignment.
