R-TECH 10-60 PSI PRODUCTS MOISTURE RESISTANT INSULATION PREMIUM INSULATION Description R-Tech® is an engineered rigid insulation consisting of a superior closed-cell, lightweight and resilient expanded polystyrene (EPS) with advanced polymeric laminate facers. R-Tech is available with factory adhered metallic-reflective facers, white facers or a combination of the two. R-Tech is the same high-quality as our InsulFoam brand insulations and meets or exceeds the comprehensive strength, flexural strength, dimensional stability and water absorption requirements of ASTM C578, Standard Specification for Rigid, Cellular Polystyrene Thermal Insulation. R-Tech is an ENERGY STAR® qualified insulation and can contribute toward LEED® credits. Uses R-Tech Insulation is successfully used in numerous commercial, industrial and residential applications. The following are examples of the many applications: Interior & Exterior Wall Insulation EIFS & Stucco Insulation Single-Ply Roof Insulation Roof recover board Continuous Below-grade Insulation ¡ Foundation, Perimeter Slab & Basement Insulation ¡ Cost Effective. R-Tech is typically less expensive than other comparable insulation products. ¡ Retaining Walls ¡ Drainage Board ¡ Waterproofing Protection Board ¡ Freezers & Cold Storage ¡ Proven Performance. EPS has been manufactured using the same chemistry since the mid-1950s, providing proven performance. Advantages ¡ Environmentally Friendly. R-Tech does not contain any ozone depleting blowing agents or dyes, may contain recycled material and the foam core is 100% recyclable. ¡ Moisture Resistance. R-Tech facers provide a surface that is virtually impervious to moisture and the InsulFoam EPS core does not readily absorb moisture from the environment. ¡ Stable R-Value. The product’s thermal properties will remain stable over its entire service life. ¡ Long Term Warranty. With no thermal drift, Insulfoam warrants this product with a 20-Year Thermal Performance Warranty. ¡ Varying Compressive Strengths. More available compressive strengths than comparable below grade products. ¡ Code Approvals. Insulfoam insulations are recognized by the International Code Council Evaluation Service (ICC-ES), for numerous applications. Please contact your local Insulfoam representative for details. ¡ Enhanced R-Values. In certain applications, increased R-Values can be obtained by placing the metallic reflective side of the R-Tech towards a dead air space. R-Value gain is dependent on the amount of dead air space between the R-Tech and outer surface. R-Value gains are based on the ASHRAE Handbook of Fundamentals. See the attached Effective R-Value chart. ¡ User Friendly. R-Tech can be ordered with the InsulSnap™ feature which scores the product longitudinally at any preordered interval (commonly 16” or 24” o.c.). The InsulSnap feature minimizes labor by enabling the installer to cleanly break the product at the desired width while also minimizing product breakage and waste. Sizes R-Tech is available in 4' x 8' sheets with thicknesses from 3/ 8" to 5" in 1/8" increments. R-Tech can also be ordered with the InsulSnap feature which allows the end user to cleanly break the 4' x 8' sheets into any desired width. All of the R-Tech insulation products are available with metallic reflective and InsulFoam white facers. In addition, custom sizes and densities are available upon request with little or no impact on lead time. Several R-Tech products are also available as 200 sf bundles of Fanfold. ¡ Insect and Mold Resistance. R-Tech is manufactured with an inert additive that deters termites and carpenter ants. R-Tech does not sustain mold and mildew growth. Nationwide Manufacturing INSULATION ENGINEERED TO MAKE A DIFFERENCE. ¡ Jobsite Durability. With a polymeric facer on either side of it, R-Tech is e
