Shotcrete Plus Montana, to Distribute Creatherm Foam Building Products in Montana
Shotcrete Plus Montana, to Distribute Creatherm Foam Building Products in Montana.
Absarokee, MT – June 2008 – Creatherm is pleased to announce that Shotcrete Plus Montana, will be the first distributor of the manufacturer’s foam building products in Montana. Shotcrete Plus Montana will distribute both the S20 and S45 Radiant Floor Panels which are ideal for installing PEX hydronic tubing with considerable time savings.
The S45 floor panel is 2’ x 4’ x 2.8” thick and features a staggered snap-tight grid for optimal tubing spacing. On-center points exist every three inches. The S45 Floor Panel can support the installation of ½”, 5/8” or 3/4” PEX Tubing. This newer panel does not support installing tubing at 45 degree angles but offers greater “R” Value due to its thickness. This makes the product ideal for colder climates or new construction.
Creatherm Radiant floor panels are now 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 Whitestown, Ind., a northwest suburb of Indianapolis, Creatherm offers expanded polystyrene foam products to the building industry. Building on a design alliance with Createc Corporation, manufacturers of ICF panels, Creatherm’s Radiant Floor Panels were their first product to reach market. Creatherm is a proud member of the Radiant Panel Association.
