Dow styrofoam™ smtg™ flooring applications

Builders have come to appreciate Styrofoam™ insulation because it goes up quickly and easily. Dow Styrofoam™ SMTG™ is available in a variety of thicknesses and R-Values. Like all Dow Styrofoam™ extruded polystyrene insulation, SMTG™ offers a high R-Value combined with an exceptional resistance to moisture and warping. Its proprietary closed cell structure enables it to defend against all forms of water and water vapour, so it maintains a stable R-Value over time.

The tongue-and-groove edge treatment makes Styrofoam™ SMTG™ especially effective against air infiltration, one of the leading causes of energy loss in a home.

For your RADIANT and CONCRETE SLAB Flooring applications

Dow Styrofoam™ SMTG™ is perfect for insulating under and over concrete slabs of living areas. It is critical to correctly insulate slabs that are going to have floor coverings installed over them to reduce the potential for condensation, mould and energy loss.

The tongue-and-groove edge treatment makes the Dow Styrofoam™ SMTG™ fit snugly against one another, leaving a smooth, even surface for your flooring applications. The high compressive strength of Dow Styrofoam™ SMTG™ make it ideal for a variety of loading situations and with an excellent moisture resistance rating to provide a long-term R-Value ensures your home is kept dry and comfortable.
