Styropor®, Neopor® and Peripor® EPS by BASF – The product portfolio with the most EPS experience. For more than 70 years! Styropor® > Neopor® > expect more BASF’s EPS experience goes back more than 70 years: in 1951, the company patented Styropor®, the classic white expandable polystyrene, thereby setting the standard for many insulation and packaging applications. In 1997, BASF took a major step forward with regards to EPS: the material was enriched with particles of graphite and the insulation properties of the foam were therefore significantly improved. This became the powerful Neopor®. And we did not stop: BASF started offering even more sustainable product solutions with a lower carbon footprint, such as Neopor® BMB for thermal insulation or Styropor® Ccycled® for packaging as well as Neopor® McycledTM containing rec

A Complete Product Range for All Construction and Packaging Applications For conventional EPS insulation applications, BASF’s range includes the Styropor® F 15 R product types. Peripor® rounds out BASF’s offering for the construction segment. With its short cycle times during processing and its low water absorption, the product fulfills the most demanding requirements. Flame retardant In addition, BASF serves the packaging industry with its EPS product range: The products of the Styropor® P 26 series are characterized by their mechanical strength.

BASF’s Neopor® brand features the broadest product portfolio in the grey EPS segment and thus supplements the traditional Styropor® range. It stands out with its improved product characteristics and therefore enables more efficient insulation solutions, resulting in a better ratio between cost and insulation value. Neopor® is produced using two technologies: polymerization and extrusion. The product range comprises the Neopor® F 2000 series and the Neopor® F 5000 series. Flame retardant Neopor ® F 2000: Produced by polymerization In the market since 1998 Characterized by a silver-grey color...
