REMAK® XPS - SOLUTION FOR TRAFFIC LANE’S FOUNDATION
Being lightweight, having high compressive strength, waterproof and outstanding heat insulation ability, Remak® XPS is an essential foundation material for construction of roads & roadways , such as: highways, airways, etc.
DESCRIPTION
Roads and highways are being built more each year to match the increasing trafficking demands. However, many recently built lanes are possibly constructed on loose or weak soil that cannot bear massive loads and is prone to cracking or subsidence.
Traffic works are commonly known as places that have to bear massive loads often so the ability to withstand the pressure of the surface is necessary. If the foundation is weak, the surface is easily prone to cracking or subsidence. Thus, the foundation construction process needs to be taken seriously. With a compressive strength of up to 800kPa, Remak® XPS is the perfect foundation material for making of roads, especially highways, and airways which are built in icy and humid areas
In addition, the actual use and testing process also shows that Remak® XPS foam has very high durability, thereby it is difficult to deform during use, and has a durability of up to 50 years.
Advantages
Building's lifespan increasing
Remak® XPS protects buildings from extreme weather, thereby increasing the lifespan of buildings.
Excellent Thermal Insulation
With an impressive thermal conductivity 0.027W/mK, our Remak® XPS foams are ideal for insulation projects.
Convenient for Site Construction
Our XPS boards are light for easy installing without affecting the bearing capacity of the structure, and can be cut on site for quick construction.
Durability
The stability of polystyrene gives our Remak® XPS a longer lifespan, making it usable for more than 30 years.
Good Sound Insulation Effect
Remak® XPS with a closed cell structure is a soundproof material and capable of reducing noise transmission.
Recyclability
Remak® XPS is 100% recyclable. It is used for circular construction projects and can be reused in our XPS production process instead of being released into the environment.
Great Moisture Resistance
Our XPS insulation foams' closed cell structure ensure low water absorption and high moisture resistance
Reliable Flame Retardation
Our XPS boards are compliant with B1 flame standards, reduce fire hazards and ensure fire safety in constructions.
No Mildew
Remak® XPS does not absorb moisture, so it does not present a favorable environment for mold and bacteria to grow.
