Flat EPS Roof Insulation
About Flat EPS Roof Insulation
ACH Foam Technologies' Flat Roof Insulation provides high long-term R-Values and saves labor installation time. Suitable for use with all roofing membrane materials, expanded polystyrene (EPS) roof insulation is compatible with loose-laid and attached single-ply membranes, conventional built-up roofing or modified bitumen systems.
Flat Roof Insulation is unfaced EPS and is suitable for use with loosely laid single-ply membranes. Flat EPS Roof Insulation is also used with conventional BUR and mechanically or adhesively attached single-ply and modified bitumen membranes when field-applied cover boards are used.

Foam-Control® PLUS+® Flat EPS Roof Insulation Outperforms XPS and Polyiso
-
Foam-Control® PLUS+® provides more R-value at a lower cost
-
XPS and Polyiso use blowing agents that cause R-value loss over time
-
Polyiso loses R-value during cold and extreme high temperature exposure
-
Foam-Control® PLUS+® available in 15, 25, 40, and 60 psi strengths at a lower cost
-
Foam-Control® PLUS+® has a superior drying potential
-
Foam-Control® PLUS+® is more vapor permeable to help avoid moisture problems
