EPS Geofoam provides a stable, lightweight base for building slabs, reducing the need for heavy fill while maintaining strong load-bearing capabilities. Its high compressive strength ensures even weight distribution beneath concrete slabs, minimizing the risk of settling or shifting over time.
Because EPS blocks are manufactured to exacting specifications, they create a level and consistent sub-base—ideal for both slab-on-grade and elevated slab applications. Builders benefit from faster prep times and improved structural reliability, all while reducing material costs and overall project weight.
Using EPS Geofoam under building slabs streamlines the construction process. Its lightweight nature means easier handling and quicker installation compared to traditional fill materials like gravel or sand.
In addition to installation efficiency, EPS offers built-in thermal insulation, improving the energy performance of the structure by reducing heat loss through the slab. This dual function—load support and insulation—makes Geofoam a practical, high-performance solution for modern builds aiming to meet energy codes and sustainability goals.
