FAQ
Extruded Polystyrene (XPS) has a closed-cell structure, making it denser, more resistant to moisture, and stronger in compression. Expanded Polystyrene (EPS) has an open-cell structure, making it lighter and more cost-effective for general insulation applications.
Extruded Polystyrene (XPS) is the ideal choice for high-moisture environments. Its closed-cell structure provides superior resistance to water absorption, ensuring long-term thermal performance.
For high-load bearing applications, Extruded Polystyrene (XPS) is recommended due to its higher compressive strength and durability.
Expanded Polystyrene (EPS) is generally the more cost-effective option for standard insulation needs like wall cavities, providing excellent thermal performance for its price.
Expanded Polystyrene (EPS) is considered more environmentally friendly as it is more easily recycled and has a lower impact during production.
Yes, both XPS and EPS are used for roof insulation. XPS is often preferred for flat roofs or areas exposed to moisture and traffic due to its strength, while EPS is a cost-effective solution for pitched roofs.
Yes, Expanded Polystyrene (EPS) is very versatile and is used to create decorative items, such as cornices and other architectural features, sold as “FABCO Decor”.
Our products are manufactured according to both American (ASTM C 578: 2022) and Saudi (SASO) specifications and are accredited by various authorities in Saudi Arabia.
“FABCO Hordi” are hollow blocks made of Expanded Polystyrene (EPS). They are used in slab construction (hollow block slabs) to reduce the overall weight of the structure without compromising its strength.
