Product catalog summary
Description
FOAMULAR® AGTEK is an extruded polystyrene (XPS) rigid foam insulation designed for agricultural construction, such as poultry houses. It offers energy-saving and moisture-resistant properties, contributing to a controlled environment that enhances productivity by reducing animal stress and mortality.

Key Features
  • Stable insulating performance with an R-value of R-5 per inch.
  • Washable for easy maintenance and has tight-fitting edges to prevent energy leakage.
  • Resistant to decay, mildew, and fungus growth, with exceptional moisture resistance and long-term durability.
  • Certified to contain a minimum of 20% recycled content and is GREENGUARD Children & Schools Certified.
  • Zero ozone depletion potential and reduced global warming potential.
  • Lightweight, durable, and easy to install.

Technical Information
The product is combustible and requires a protective barrier as specified in building codes. It is non-structural and must be installed on adequately braced framing. FOAMULAR® XPS insulation can be exposed to the exterior during construction but should be covered within 60 days to prevent degradation.

Standards and Compliance
  • Meets ASTM C578 Type IV, 25 psi minimum.
  • UL Classified and meets California Quality Standards and HUD UM #71a.
  • Compliance verification by RADCO (AA-650).

Typical Physical Properties
  • Thermal Resistance: R-Value of 5.0 for 1" thickness at 75°F.
  • Compressive Strength: Minimum 25 psi.
  • Water Absorption: Maximum 0.10% by volume.
  • Flame Spread: 5, Smoke Developed: 45-175.

Certifications and Sustainability
  • Reusable and made with a zero ozone depletion formula.
  • Certified for indoor air quality standards and eligible for green building certifications like LEED®.

Warranty
FOAMULAR® XPS insulation comes with a limited lifetime warranty, maintaining 90% of its R-value for the building's lifetime.

FOAMULAR® AgTek-1

FOAMULAR® AGTEK Extruded Polystyrene (XPS) Rigid Foam Insulation Product Data Sheet excess heat, humidity and odor, the material’s insulating effectiveness helps reduce heat gain from solar loading, thereby increasing poultry house yield. In the winter, FOAMULAR® insulation reduces heating requirements and help keep a stable poultry house temperature. Energy-Saving, Moisture Resistant XPS Insulation For poultry houses and other agricultural construction ASTM C578 Type IV, 25 psi minimum Description FOAMULAR® AGTEK extruded polystyrene (XPS) rigid foam insulation provides cost-efficient insulation for use in animal confinement, crop containment and machinery storage facilities. A well-insulated poultry house that provides a constant, controlled environment can add significantly to profi tability. FOAMULAR® insulation offers distinct benefi ts that meet this profi t aim by creating an atmosphere that can help reduce animal stress and mortality. Result: maximum productivity. AGTEK XPS insulation increases efficiency in both installation and maintenance which can result in significant savings. FOAMULAR® insulation provides stable thermal properties that are of great value throughout the year. In warm months, when good ventilation is needed to provide fresh air and control FOAMULAR® insulation can be applied to girts in sidewall construction or purlins in roof construction, on the interior of either wood or steel-framed buildings. FOAMULAR® also works well in a drop ceiling configuration. Installed on the underside of the bottom cord of roof trusses, it is more durable than plastic films and is capable of protecting and supporting the weight of blown insulation. FOAMULAR® extruded polystyrene insulation is economical, easy to install and assists in saving energy and increasing productivity. The material is impervious to moisture and is strong enough to resist damage from high-pressure wash downs while it maintains excellent insulating properties for the life of the building. Key Features • Excellent long-term stable insulating performance with an R-value1 of R-5 per inch • Total washability for easy maintenance • Tight-fitting edges that help prevent energy leakage • Special extended-length sizes for ease of construction • Resistant to decay, mildew and fungus growth • Exceptional moisture resistance, long-term durability • Limited lifetime warranty2— maintains 90% of R-value and covers all ASTM C578 properties • The only XPS foam to be GREENGUARD Children & Schools CertifiedSM • The only XPS foam with certified recycled content— certified by Scientific Certification Systems (SCS) to contain a minimum 20% recycled content • Will not corrode, rot or support mold growth • Zero ozone depletion potential with 70% less global warming potential than our previous formula • Reusable • Lightweight, durable rigid foam panels are easy to handle and install • Easy to saw, cut or score • An excellent choice for masonry cavity wall or steel stud/brick veneer insulation Technical Information This product is combustible. A protective barrier or thermal barrier is required as specified in the appropriate building code.

FOAMULAR® AGTEK Extruded Polystyrene (XPS) Rigid Foam Insulation Product Data Sheet All construction should be evaluated for the necessity to provide vapor retarders. See current ASHRAE Handbook of Fundamentals. FOAMULAR® XPS insulation is a non-structural material and must be installed on framing which is independently braced and structurally adequate to meet required construction and service loading conditions. FOAMULAR® insulation can be exposed to the exterior during normal construction cycles. During that time some fading of color may begin due to UV exposure, and, if exposed for extended...
