Goldfoam

Goldfoam is manufactured by continuous extrusion process creating unique CLOSED CELL.This CLOSED CELL has no voids between cell walls.This unique structure gives Goldfoam high insulating values and superior moisture resistances.Moisture penetration significantly reduces thermal effectiveness of many insulation materials.Goldfoam, thanks to the closed cell structure that extruding provides, absorbs negligible moisture.The closed cell also accounts for its high thermal efficiency.

High Quality Extruded Polystyrene Insulation Foam Board

Goldfoam

Goldfoam is produced by ultramodern facilities designed by Hermann Berstorff of Germany, a company with over 100 years of experience.

Goldfoam’s properties come up to the standard issued by KS (Korean Industrial Standards), KSM3808.

To avoid cold bridges, to simplify laying or to improve visual appearance, Goldfoam boards are available with square edge, ship-lapped or tongue-and-groove design.

Goldfoam can be transported and stocked without damage due to our sophisticated whole-body packaging in Anti-weathering film.

Goldfoam

Goldfoam provides an effective thermal insulation to a building.

Product Advantages

Goldfoam has a closed cell structure that gives a maximum resistance to water and moisture penetration, hence, its long term performance in thermal efficiency remains relatively unaffected.

Goldfoam is light in weight for easy handling and can be easily cut by a cutter or saw.

Goldfoam has a high compressive strength and is strong and durable.

Goldfoam contains fire-retardant additive, Self-fire-extinguishing

Goldfoam is available in widely varying sizes including length from 1200~8000mm, widths from 600~1000mm and thickness from 10~190mm.
