2 Global Foam Company Also known as Global Manufacturing Solutions, has been in business since Global provides custom precise-cut foam patterns and shapes for several applications: architecture, signs, concrete forms, amusement parks, displays/exhibits, from wedding columns to concrete bridge detailing. Global Foam Company produces unfinished items for EIFS (Exterior Insulation Finish Systems). The shapes we create can be cut from our library of files, or we can produce from customer generated ideas. Usable files include 2D and 3D CAD files, dimensioned layouts, photos, hand sketches or renderings, clip art profiles and letter fonts. Exceeding customer expectations is our primary goal. Responsibility Of Customer When you submit a Design it is the responsibility of the purchaser/specifier. The designer is responsible for all decisions pertaining to the design, detail capability, drawings, etc. Global Foam Company is not liable for any errors in these areas.

22 WHAT IS EXPANDED POLYSTYRENE (EPS)? EPS - Styrofoam is often used to describe expanded polystyrene (EPS) foam; however, Styrofoam is actually a trademarked term for closed-cell extruded polystyrene foam. EPS foam is the correct term for any form of expanded polystyrene. Expanded Polystyrene insulation is a lightweight, rigid, closed cell insulation. EPS is available in several compressive strengths to withstand load and back-fill forces. This closed-cell structure provides minimal water absorption and low vapor permanence Can be molded into specific shapes based on the customers needs. It s lightweight properties make it very easy to work with. Products molded from Expanded Polystyrene can be calculated to endure very high loads without buckling. The design parameters used are reliant on end-use requirements. Architectural EPS is modified with a fire retardant and is usually encapsulated with an acrylic-based finish. EXPANDED POLYSTYRENE (EPS) Concerns of EPS - Moisture, chemical properties, adhesives, exposure to sunlight, bacterial growth & fungus and load-bearing properties. Chemical Properties: Expanded Polystyrene molded products are resistant to virtually allaqueous media including dilute acids and alkalis, as well as water-soluble alcohols and silicones. EPS products have limited resistance to these substances - paraffin oil, vegetable oils, diesel fuel, and Vaseline may attack the surface after long-term contact and cause deformation. Expanded Polystyrene products are not resistant to organic chemicals such as hydrocarbons, chlorinated hydrocarbons, ketones and esters. Anhydrous acids destroy organics such as Expanded Polystyrene. Adhesives: Products molded from Expanded Polystyrene are easily bonded to many materials with non-hydrocarbon base adhesives and cements. Latex paints provide an excellent finish coat for Expanded Polystyrene point-of-sale displays and consumer end-use food containers. Exposure to Sunlight: Long-standing direct exposure to sunlight may cause yellowing and slight surface embellishments. Suitable coverings are recommended for long-term outdoor use. Bacterial Growth: Expanded Polystyrene molded products don t support fungus and bacterial growth. Soiled foam can provide nutrient for fungal or bacterial growth. EPS (Expanded Bead Polystyrene) (Bead Board) The EPS comes in large billets ~ 33x48x96 inches. This type of foam is white and has small beads formed together like foam packing products. It can be of various densities - 2 lb., 3 lb., and 5 lb. densities.. We typically cut a 1 lb. foam for most uses. The cost of materials increases in prices according to density; for example: 1 lb. is ½ the price of 2 lb. This material can be painted by hand or a mechanical sprayer. We have water based coatings, including paint, which will provide a hard durable finish for this material and hard plastic finishes for this foam plus a special Styrocrete finish. The Styrocrete is a concrete with a polymer bonder providing a weatherproof coating. Add a fiberglass mesh and this material wears just like a stucco exterior finish. Extruded Polystyrene (DowTM Board)This material is a smooth closed cell and is about 1.5 lb. Density, it is used for items 3 in. thick or less. We use this for letters and shapes when someone wants a higher quality foam for applying paint.
