CLOSED - CELL POLYETHYLENE FOAM
Euro Accessories Expansion Joint Foam is a closed cell polyethylene foam used as a joint filler, joint former, non- load transfer filler, grout check, stop-end, insulant and many more applications. It is compressible yet semi- rigid, strong and non absorbent. Our Joint Foam is
light, clean and easy to use and it can be used on all normal building surfaces. It is highly resistant to most site chemicals and oils with weathering and ozone resistance. Euro Accessorises can also manufacture non standard widths on request.
Expansion Joints
Euro Accessories Expansion Joint Foam is used to form expansion joints in concrete slabs and brickwork. It is left in the joint as it reduces compressive stresses.
Precast Concrete Panels
Euro Accessories Expansion Joint Foam makes an ideal bond breaker and back up sealing strip between concrete panels.
Stop-Ends
Euro Accessories Expansion Joint Foam takes the place of timber or
ply and is easy to remove. It is also used extensively as a grout check and in thinner sheets, as a frost protection blanket.
