Production Begins On New Creatherm S20 Contractor Radiant Floor Panel
Brownsburg, IN – The fourth panel from Creatherm TM is ready for market and combines benefits of its first three radiant floor panels into one economical product.
The S20 Contractor panel is two-inches in overall thickness. The lower height profile makes the snap-tight grid ideal for over-pour or retro-fit applications where a thicker panel cannot always be used.
The S20 Contractor panel is 2’ x 4’ x 2” thick and features 8 radial staggered snap-tight grids for optimal tubing spacing.
On-center points exist every six inches and the patented design allows the installers to run tubing at 45-degree angles with ease. The S20 Contractor panel can support the installation of 1/2” and 5/8” PEX tubing.
The new panel will be manufactured at existing Creatherm production facilities. Customers now have the ability to split orders between the widely popular T45, S45 and U45 Floor Panels by bundle quantity.
All Creatherm TM radiant floor panels are manufactured out of BASF Styropor® EPS. Styropor®, an expandable polystyrene (EPS) was invented by BASF in 1952 and today is a classic among the raw materials employed for cost-effective construction, as well as efficient and reliable packaging. The most important properties of Styropor® EPS include: excellent thermal insulation capacity, high compressive strength, outstanding impact absorption, low weight, and flexible design capabilities.
The foam panels are also quiet, resistant to insects and mold, and virtually allergen free.
Headquarted in Brownsburg, Ind., a northwest suburb of Indianapolis, Creatherm TM offers expanded polystyrene foam products to the building industry.
