GreenGuard Type IV 25 PSI Insulation Board

R-Value of 5.0 per inch of thickness increases energy efficiency of structures Meets and exceeds all Type IV and Type X specifications Lightweight, easy to handle, and easy to cut with a knife

GreenGuard extruded polystyrene (XPS) does not absorb moisture and retains its insulating properties over time, making it an ideal exterior insulation.

Below SlaB

Suitable for normal loading situations, including radiant floors. See your GreenGuard representative for specific loading requirements.

CaVITy wall

Moisture resistance and R-Value retention make GreenGuard XPS an excellent choice for exterior cavity wall applications. It provides a thermal break over steel studs and helps reduce the potential for condensation in block-backed cavity walls. Score board is 48 wide sheets designed to snap into 16, 24, and 32 widths for a convenient fit between brick ties in block-backed exterior cavity walls.

FoundaTIon

Insulating the exterior of a foundation reduces energy loss and helps control moisture inside the basement. In addition, a layer of durable XPS on the basement exterior helps protect the waterproofing membrane from damage during backfilling. The moisture resistance and R-Value retention of XPS make it an excellent choice for foundation insulation.
