Two lb density EPS is used to create these 6″ thick pads under the steel tanks. The raised pads prevent moisture from accumulating underneath the tanks while insulating the tanks from the slab below. A polyuria coating is used to seal the EPS. The pads range in diameter from 12′ to 16′ and in thicknesses from 2″ top 8″. Universal supplies the expanded polystyrene pads precut and ready to install. The high compression strength of the 2 lb EPS easily carries the load of the full tanks.

You may actually be looking for an expanded polystyrene (EPS) product. See the difference between STYROFOAM Brand Foam products and expanded polystyrene, which is often mistakenly referred to as Styrofoam.
“Universal Foam Products was our Geofoam supplier for a stadium seating project in New Orleans. The material was delivered on time and cut to size. We installed the project in less than 3 hours with a 4 man crew without cutting a single piece of foam. We look forward to doing more projects with your company in the future.”
