Uses
R-Tech has been used successfully for numerous commercial, industrial and residential applications.
The following are examples of the many R-Tech applications:
• Interior & Exterior Wall Insulation
• Siding & Stucco Insulation
• Single-Ply Roof Insulation
• Roof Recover Board
• Continuous Below-Grade Insulation
Advantages
• Environmentally Friendly. R-Tech does not contain any dyes, may contain recycled material and the foam core is
100% recyclable.
• Insect and Mold Resistance. R-Tech is manufactured with an inert additive that deters termites and carpenter ants.
R-Tech does not sustain mold and mildew growth.
• Water Resistance. R-Tech facers provide a surface that is virtually impervious to moisture.
• Jobsite Durability. With a polymeric facer on either side of it, R-Tech is extremely flexible and durable.
• Stable R-value. The thermal properties of R-Tech will remain stable over its entire service life. There is no thermal drift.
• Cost Effective. R-Tech is typically less expensive than other comparable insulation products, its factory laminated
facer also offers installation savings.
• Proven Performance. EPS has been manufactured using the same chemistry since the mid-1950s, providing proven
performance.
• Enhanced R-value. In certain applications, increased R-value can be obtained by placing the metallic reflective side of
the R-Tech towards a dead air space. R-value gain is dependent on the amount of dead air space between the R-Tech
and outer surface. R-value gains are based on the ASHRAE Handbook of Fundamentals. See the “Effective R-value
chart” on other side.
• Foundation, Perimeter, Slab & Basement Insulation
• Retaining Walls
• Waterproofing Protection Board
• Freezers & Cold Storage
Description
Henry R-Tech is an engineered rigid insulation consisting of a
superior closed-cell, lightweight and resilient expanded polystyrene
(EPS) core with a printed, and a metallic-reflective polymeric facer.
R-Tech meets or exceeds the requirements of ASTM C578,
Type I, Standard Specification for Rigid Cellular Polystyrene
Thermal Insulation. In addition, R-Tech has excellent dimensional
stability, compressive strength and water resistance properties. R-Tech is an
ENERGY STAR
®
qualified insulation and can contribute towards LEED
