Polyfoam XPS, a leading manufacturer of extruded polystyrene (XPS), has renewed its partnership with NBS to host its growing range of insulation products in the NBS National BIM Library.

A total of seven Polyfoam XPS products can be found on the site, including three grades of Polyfoam Floorboard, providing thermal insulation for loadbearing floors, two grades of Polyfoam Roofboard providing thermally-efficient insulation for flat roofs, the Polyfoam Slimline Zero Membrane, and the Polyfoam Upstand Board for the thermal insulation and protection of upstand and parapet walls.

Free to use, the NBS National BIM Library is the only one of its kind to link directly to market-leading specification software allowing designers to drag and drop objects into a model.

The partnership also means that information about Polyfoam XPS products, including technical downloads and independent accreditations, are featured on ribaproductselector.com.

Rob Firman, Technical and Specification Manager of Polyfoam XPS said: “The NBS offers trusted specification platforms, which are used across the whole construction sector. Partnering with the company ensures our products are available to designers as high-quality BIM objects and that they are armed with all the technical information they need to make informed decisions.”

All Polyfoam XPS products are available in the BIM Library in IFC format as well as 3D CAD Autodesk Revit.
