Technopol works hand in hand with the major players in the agricultural industry. Where our dedicated partners help with the erection of a structure, Technopol provides the necessary insulation materials and thermal design. Our unique collaborative design offers a tightly sealed unit that is well insulated at costs lower than any other portal frame or built structure. EPS structures are further regarded as an Environmentally Friendly Structures.
This is because the structures reduces energy consumption of temperature controlled livestock farming by as much as 60%, resulting in a reduced carbon footprint in Agriculture.
Applications vary from:
- Chicken Houses
- Piggeries
- Warehousing
- Farm Sheds
- Light Industrial Stores
- Workshops
- Hangers
- The possibilities are endless
Advantages of using EPS:
EPS consists of 98% air and has long been used as a thermal agent. The insulating ability of EPS makes it an ideal material for energy efficient building products.
- Light weight, easy to transport and install.
- Moisture resistant, increasing water penetration resistance.
- Sound absorbency: Since it is resistant to vibration, which helps to increase sound insulation..
- Safe to use. EPS is non-toxic, does not contain CFCs and does not decompose into harmful substances.
- Easy to use; is easily painted using PVA applied by brush or spray. Bonds easily to other materials.
- Recyclability: EPS is 100% recyclable
- Extremely cost effective.
- EPS can be moulded, shaped and cut into virtually any shape or pattern.
- EPS is modular and easy to extend.
- Fire retardant. All EPS used in Technopol’s products are fire retardant and will not propagate or contribute to the spread of fire.
- Durability. EPS does not rot or degrade over time, remains dimensionally stable, will remain fully functional for the life of any building
