Geofoam
Our EPS Geofoam is a superior, lightweight fill used in a wide variety of geotechnical applications including abutments, slope stabilization, void fill, back fill, sub-grade insulation, and road and airfield pavements.
Its low density, moisture absorption, and friction interference combined with high thermal insulation and compressive strength enables engineers, architects and builders to design for key geosynthetic functions and implement innovative solutions to a wide range of problems.

Foam questions?
We've got answers.
Learn more about the applications for our foam products.
What types of foam products do you manufacture?
Our specialties are expanded polystyrene (EPS), expanded polypropylene (EPP), and graphite polystyrene (GPS), These products have many applications, and can be used in roofing, insulation, landscaping, stabilization, exterior siding, and more. We also offer custom packaging and manufacturing to meet your specific needs.
Do you offer custom foam manufacturing?
We do have the capability to customize our products to your specific needs. In addition, we offer custom packaging, either to ensure your product arrives damage-free, or for your own shipping and packaging needs.
Which types of foam are best for each application?
Most of our applications can be made with multiple foam types, and we’ll guide you to choose the best one for your requirements. Here’s a list of what we manufacture:
- Custom packaging: EPS or EPP
- Insulated shipping containers: EPS or GPS
- Precast: EPS or GPS
- Garage doors and door cores: EPP, EPS, or GPS
- Sheathing: EPS or GPS
- EIFS: EPS or GPS
- Geofoam: EPS
- Roofing: EPS
- OEM: EPP, EPS, or GPS
Which type of foam is the best for my project?
If multiple foam types are able to be used in your project, we’ll discuss the benefits of each product and decide together what will be the best choice for your project.
Are your products sustainable or LEED-certified?
Many of our products can contribute to LEED points, depending on application and use.
