SUSTAINABLE SOLUTIONS

PFB® insulating building products are being used throughout the Lakeside Green Cottage. The high insulating properties of the products are due to their primary component, expanded polystyrene (EPS), a rigid foam material that has special properties due to its structure. The individual cells of low density polystyrene make EPS extremely light and strong, able to support many times its own weight. The individual cells prevent heat from moving through the EPS, making it a great insulator.

EPS is also used in flotation devices, packaging and picnic coolers. The Lakeside Green Cottage will use these EPS products:

Advantage ICF Insulspan SIPS Plasti-Fab EPS Riverbend Timber Framing

Other green products being used in the home include:

Andersen Windows Pactiv Greenguard Max
