How to Choose Appropriate XPS Production Line?

Knowing the diffetence of each type of XPS production line is vital for your project. In his post, I will let you know how to choose suitable XPS production line.

Choosing suitable XPS production line is important for your each buyer. But how to select appropriate XPS production machine? According to your demands and budget, everyone has the optimized option. Blowing agents; The specification of XPS foam board; Capacity & Equipment configuration are the four factors that affect the selection of XPS extrusion line.

Blowing Agents

Each country has different regulations on foaming agent of XPS insulation board. Before choosing blowing agents for your XPS machine, you’d better do investigation.

XPS extrusion line adopts CO2 technology, using GPPS (General Purpose Polystyrene), other Blowing Agent like CO2 / Butane / LPG / DME, Nucleating Agent and high performance Fire Retardants as the raw materials to mass produce the nearly 100% closed-cell XPS Foam Board.
