XPS Type VI 40PSI Board

GreenGuard extruded polystyrene(XPS) does not absorb moisture and retains its insulating properties over time, making it an ideal exterior insulation.  With an R-Value of 5.0 per inch of thickness, the board increases the energy efficiency of your structures..  Plus, it's light weight, easy to handle, and easy to cut with a knife. GreenGuard Type VI 40 PSI Insulation Board is designed for use in high load applications requiring compressive strength up to 40PSI.  It meets ASTM C 578 Type VI requirements.
