No, EPS (expanded polystyrene) and styrofoam are not the same, although they are often confused due to their similar appearance. Styrofoam is a trademarked brand of closed-cell extruded polystyrene foam, typically used for thermal insulation and craft applications. EPS is a lighter, airier foam used widely in the construction industry for insulation and structural applications.
The EPS system in construction refers to the use of expanded polystyrene products for various building applications. This includes EPS blocks and panels used in Insulated Concrete Forms (ICFs), foundation blocks, and as lightweight fillers. The system is valued for its insulation properties, lightweight design, and versatility in shaping and sizing for different construction needs.
EPS blocks provide numerous benefits, including superior thermal insulation, a high strength-to-weight ratio making them lightweight and easy to handle, and versatility for various construction applications. They are also moisture-resistant, helping to prevent mould and mildew, and are eco-friendly, often being made from recycled materials and being fully recyclable.
EPS is surprisingly durable for its lightweight composition. It resists moisture and decay, maintains its shape, and can withstand loads and stresses typical in construction. Its durability, combined with its insulation properties and strength-to-weight ratio, makes it a preferred choice for long-term construction projects.
