EPS 150

EPS 150 boards provide reliable strength for applications exposed to higher loads. They handle heavier compressive loads than standard EPS, keeping floors and roofs stable. These boards are suitable for demanding domestic settings and light industrial projects.

What Is Expanded Polystyrene 150?

EPS150 is expanded polystyrene rated at 150 kPa compressive strength. This value is determined in accordance with EN 826 at 10% compression.

The boards’ density typically ranges from 20-30 kilograms per cubic metre, and most expanded polystyrene 150 products deliver 0.035 – 0.038 W/m·K in thermal performance.

Standard EPS150 has a Euroclass E fire rating and meets the BS EN 13163 specification for consistency.

What Is 150 EPS Used For?

Jabfloor EPS 150 is a widely used option for heavier domestic and light-industrial floors.

It is mainly used beneath screed or structural toppings and is typically chosen for sustained or higher loads: commercial ground floors, warehouse mezzanines, floor areas(under screeed or slab), cold stores, and locations where racking, pallet traffic, or heavier finishes are present.

With EPS 150, you can keep insulation slim while still supporting heavy loads.

EPS 150 is also used in external wall insulation (EWI)and thermal insulation on internal walls.

It can also be used within roofing build-ups to provide thermal insulation when appropriately protected by membranes.

Benefits of Jablite 150 kPa

1. Stronger under load. A 150 kPa compressive rating makes EPS 150 suitable for heavier screeds, moderate wheeled loads when fully supported by an appropriate screed or slab build-up, and commercial finishes.
2. Durable with typically low water uptake. Many Jabfloor EPS 150 products are noted for low water uptake and flood-resistant performance.
3. Specification-friendly. Available with BBA certification and meets BS EN 13163 requirements.
4. These easy-to-cut boards are light and simple to install.

Why Choose Our Expanded Polystyrene (EPS) 150?

Customers pick EPS 150 from Insulation Wholesale for these reasons:

• Our Jabfloor EPS150 gives you BBA-assured mechanical and thermal numbers and consistent batch quality.
• For projects where floor stiffness, reduced deflection, and long-term dimensional stability matter, EPS150 lets you design slimmer builds without compromising load capacity.
• The option to buy in standard 2400×1200mm boards across a range of thicknesses.
• Low prices and pallet deals – EPS 150 kPa boards are a cost-efficient way to balance structure and U-value targets.

FAQ

Where to buy EPS 150?

You can buy EPS 150 from Insulation Wholesale. We are an established store that supplies 150 EPS to both domestic and commercial clients. We stock a full range of thicknesses and board options at friendly prices, with fast nationwide delivery for all products.

How to cut polystyrene 150?

Cutting 150 EPS is the same practical process as with other EPS grades: use a handsaw, circular saw with a fine blade, or a hot-wire for production work. Heavier boards are still easy to handle but benefit from two-person lifts at larger sizes. Follow supplier guidance on PPE and dust extraction.

How much weight can EPS 150 hold?

A 150 kPa rating means the board can hold 150 kilopascals at 10% compression without crumbling, which equates to 15 tonnes per square metre under test conditions, not a design load.
