Austrotherm EPS Insulation Board
Closed-cell white EPS rigid foam insulation board. With thermal conductivity 0.038 W/mK it is positioned as the higher-performing white EPS board in the range. Types TIP80, TIP100 and TIP150; densities 16, 20 and 30 kg/m³; thickness 2–20 cm, size 50x100 cm. Used for ETICS, terrace and pitched-roof insulation and cold stores.
Austrotherm EPS PLUS
Graphite-modified grey EPS insulation board offering about 20% better thermal performance than white EPS boards. Types EPS 60, EPS 70 and EPS 90; thickness 2–20 cm, size 50x100 cm, square edges. Water absorption WL(T) 2 ≤ 2%. Used for external wall insulation, terrace and pitched roofs, and cold-store insulation. Conforms to TS EN 13163:2012+A2.
Austrotherm EPS PREMIUM
Manufactured from expanded polystyrene (EPS), this graphite-modified insulation board reaches a thermal conductivity of 0.030 W/mK. Product type EPS 70; thickness 2–20 cm, size 50x100 cm, square edges, cell content 98% air and 2% polystyrene. It is used for external wall ETICS/facade insulation and for terrace and pitched-roof insulation. It conforms to TS EN 13163:2012+A2.
Services
Facade ETICS Application
For facade ETICS, the wall is cleaned of dust, dirt and moisture and cracks are repaired. EPS boards are set into a starter profile and bonded with dabs plus a perimeter bead of adhesive. After the adhesive has cured, boards are mechanically fixed with six plastic anchors per square metre; corner, drip, sill and movement profiles are fitted before render. Two coats of thin render with alkali-resistant mesh are applied, then mineral render and paint or ready-coloured acrylic/silicone decorative render.
geoBLOCK Civil Engineering Applications
Austrotherm geoBLOCK® is a lightweight EPS block for geotechnical fills, used on highways and bridge approaches to reduce design loads instead of conventional ground improvement. Compacted soil fill is about 2000 kg/m³; EPS block density is about 1% of that. Project-specific specifications are handled by the geoBLOCK civil-engineering applications team. The product conforms to TSE EN 14933.
Basement Wall Insulation
The basement wall is excavated to the footing and two coats of liquid waterproofing membrane are applied. 25 cm Austrotherm EPS with 100 kPa compressive strength and 0.035 W/mK thermal conductivity is bonded with cement adhesive. Two coats of mesh-reinforced thin render and two further membrane coats follow. A drainage board is installed with dimples toward the insulation, then backfill. 20 kg/m³ EPS was selected against the calculated lateral soil stress.
