Bitumat Thermal Board

BITUTHERM extruded polystyrene thermal insulation board is thermal insulating of buildings. Extruded polystyrene (XPS) foam is a rigid insulation formed with polystyrene polymer, manufactured using an extrusion process, and is often manufactured with a distinctive colour to identify product brand. ASTM C 578 Standard Specification for Rigid, Cellular Polystyrene Thermal Insulation covers the different types and physical properties of cellular polystyrene intended for use as thermal insulation.

BITUMAT BITUTHERM is produced in Dammam, Saudi Arabia, using the latest computerized state of the art technology. Bitumat Bitutherm Extruded Polystyrene panels are specially formulated to suit the very harsh Middle Eastern climatic conditions. BITUMAT BITUTHERM is an intelligent way to insulate a building. Bitumat uses the most sophisticated German know how to ensure that the product is consistent, water resistant, reliable and able to maintain its high R value for long periods. BITUMAT BITUTHERM boards are made in a continuous skin surface & developed into a closed cell structure. The blended polystyrene polymer compound is heated. Put through an extrusion process & exposed to normal atmospheric conditions so that the material will expand. XPS is available in several different densities and has an R-value at 75 F (24 C) of about 5 per inch (25mm) of thickness. BITUMAT BITUTHERM can be used for Roofs, Walls or even Basement. Some salient features of Bitutherm are: Due to closed-cell and homogeneous structure high resistance to water absorption thus ensuring that the product is not only dimensionally stable but capable of maintaining its K Value for long periods. Desirable resistance to vapor diffusion so that breathability is maintained.

• Sufficient strength against heavy loads.
• Excellent K and R values.
• Long-term high insulation efficiency
• Resistance to ageing and rotting.
• High resistance to thermal cycling.
• Non Toxic and non hazardous to humans and environment.
• Eliminates thermal bridging with its tongue and groove edges.
• Available in various types for roofs, slabs, and walls.
• Very light in weight with no additional load on the building.
