All cases
Synthetic insulationRoof Huissen (NL) 2025

EPS (2004) - 10 cm - flat roof

EPS board, 10 cm thick, mechanically fixed.

The screws were driven through the insulation boards into the insulated roof panels, leaving small holes in the insulation boards.

Proposed performance for reuse

  • Thermal conductivity: 0.0408 W/mK

  • Compressive strength: ≥ 56 kPa

  • Dimensional stability: At high temperature (70°C) and high relative humidity (90%), there is mainly a risk of expansion in the thickness direction (> 1%). In the length and width directions and at low temperature (-20°C), the risk of severe deformation is generally limited.

  • Water absorption: Absorbs moisture quickly during prolonged contact with water, with most of the water absorption measured after 28 days already taking place within the first 24 hours.
