Materials That Shape Better Solutions
The right material makes a difference in how a product performs, installs, and lasts over time. Beaver Thermal Solutions manufactures EPS and GPS materials to support a wide range of insulation, construction, geotechnical, packaging, OEM, and specialty applications.
From thermal insulation and lightweight fill to custom fabricated components, these materials offer a strong balance of performance, flexibility, efficiency, and long-term value.
Expanded Polystyrene (EPS)
Expanded Polystyrene is a rigid, closed-cell material produced by expanding and fusing polystyrene beads using steam. This process creates a lightweight cellular structure filled primarily with air, giving EPS its strong thermal resistance, low weight, and dependable compressive performance.
Its combination of stable R-value, moisture resistance, recyclability, and flexible manufacturing options makes it a practical material choice for both standard products and project-specific solutions.
- Stable Long-Term R-Value
- Lightweight Strength
- Recyclable Material
- Multiple Density Options
Graphite Polystyrene (GPS)
Graphite Polystyrene is a rigid, closed-cell insulation material made by integrating graphite particles into expanded polystyrene. These particles help reflect and absorb radiant heat, allowing GPS to deliver improved thermal performance compared to conventional EPS while maintaining the lightweight structure, durability, and workability that make polystyrene insulation so widely used.
- Higher R-Value per Inch
- Stable Long-Term Thermal Performance
- Lightweight & Easy to Handle
- Recyclable Material
Our Products
Beaver Thermal Solutions manufactures a wide range of products built from EPS and GPS materials, each designed to deliver reliable performance across insulation and specialty applications. From rigid insulation and ICF systems to geotechnical solutions and custom-fabricated components, these products are engineered to meet the demands of real-world projects.
Sustainability
Sustainability is a core focus at Beaver Thermal Solutions, guiding how we design products, operate our facilities, and support our customers. Our EPS and GPS insulation solutions contribute to long-term building performance by improving energy efficiency and reducing heating and cooling demands. Through responsible manufacturing practices, we minimize production waste, recycle in-house material, and continuously look for opportunities to incorporate recycled content into our products. By combining durable, high-performance materials with a commitment to efficiency and innovation, we help deliver solutions that support both project performance and a more sustainable built environment.
Our Recycling Program
We accept clean EPS and GPS scrap through our recycling program. Eligible material is reprocessed through our facilities to support continued use and reduce unnecessary landfill waste.
We also recycle internal EPS scrap as part of our day-to-day manufacturing process and continue to look for opportunities to improve recovery, reduce waste, and expand responsible material use wherever possible.
As a participating member of the EPS Industry Alliance, Beaver Thermal Solutions is part of a broader industry effort to support responsible EPS recycling and improve material recovery across North America.
