What is Ravatherm XPS X 500 SL used for?
It is a high-strength XPS insulation board designed for projects that require excellent thermal performance and the ability to withstand heavy loads, such as industrial floors, car parks, basements, and inverted roofs.

What does the 500 rating mean?
The "500" indicates a compressive strength of 500 kPa, making it suitable for applications with significantly higher loading than standard insulation boards.

Can Ravatherm XPS X 500 SL be installed below ground?
Yes. Its low water absorption and high compressive strength make it ideal for basement walls, foundation insulation, and other below-ground applications.

Is Ravatherm XPS X 500 SL suitable for inverted roofs?
Yes. It is specifically suited to inverted roof systems thanks to its moisture resistance and long-term thermal performance.

Can the boards be cut on site?
Yes. The boards can be easily cut using a fine-toothed saw or a sharp insulation knife to achieve an accurate fit.

Is Ravatherm XPS X 500 SL suitable for commercial projects?
Yes. It is widely used in commercial, industrial, and infrastructure projects where high compressive strength and durable insulation are required.

What are the benefits of XPS insulation?
XPS insulation provides excellent thermal performance, high compressive strength, very low water absorption, and long-term durability, making it ideal for demanding construction applications.
