EPS Beads
Overview
For ultra-lightweight concrete with enhanced insulation, EPS (Expanded Polystyrene) beads serve as a cost-effective partial aggregate replacement. They significantly reduce density while offering excellent thermal performance.
Key Features
- Low Density – Produces concrete with densities as low as 400–800 kg/m³.
- Thermal Insulation – Ideal for energy-efficient building envelopes.
- Improved Flow – Lightweight and spherical shape enhances workability.
- Non-Absorbent – Minimal water absorption, reducing shrinkage.
Applications & Technical Specifications
- Non-structural walls and partitions
- Insulating floor screeds and roof slabs
- Sound and thermal insulation layers
- Bead Size: 2–4 mm (avg.)
- Bulk Density: 8–12 kg/m³
- Thermal Conductivity: ~0.035 W/m·K
Packaging
Packed in 500 L jumbo bags.
