Polystyrene for 20′ Container Insulation – Insulation

Container insulation is a key step in increasing its utility value and extending its lifespan. Insulating a shipping container with polystyrene represents a proven, cost-effective and efficient solution that meets thermal insulation requirements in Czech and European conditions. This material is long-term tested by standards and offers excellent value for money for all types of container structures – from residential houses through offices to technical spaces.

How to Order and What is Included in the Delivery

A complete insulation set contains all necessary EPS parts for one 20′ container. In the listing you will find detailed technical specifications of the container for which the polystyrenes are standardly supplied. If you have a container with different door sheet embossing – it is necessary to consult the inquiry in advance!

If you plan to insulate the container partially, for example only walls, only ceiling, etc. – we will send you a price calculator to calculate the individual parts you have selected.

Shipping is calculated individually based on the number of sets and destination address – so do not forget to provide exact delivery details including postal code when ordering. After confirmation and payment of your order, you will also receive a detailed recommended work procedure and drawings that will make assembly easier for you.

Advantages of EPS 150 Polystyrene When Insulating a Container

EPS 150 (expanded polystyrene) is a material that is ideal for container structures due to its insulation properties. It significantly reduces heat loss, prevents condensation and helps maintain stable indoor climate throughout the year. This way you save costs on heating and cooling, protect the container structure from corrosion and increase user comfort.

The main advantages include:

• High insulation capacity: Effectively reduces thermal bridges and losses.
• Long lifespan: The material is resistant to moisture and mold.
• Easy assembly: Precisely cut parts guarantee quick and error-free installation.
• Low weight: Does not burden the container structure.
• Excellent value for money: Investment in EPS 150 quickly pays for itself in operational cost savings.

Technical Information and Part Compatibility

Containers are commonly manufactured from Corten or carbon steel with a wall thickness of 1.6–2.0 mm, with steel thermal conductivity reaching approximately 50 W/mK. EPS 150 effectively eliminates heat losses that would occur in an uninsulated steel structure.

Insulation parts are designed for a standard 20′ container, but when ordering it is necessary to select the correct set according to the type of trapezoidal sheet and door embossing. If your container has atypical embossing or a different type of sheet, it is essential to verify this in advance so that the insulation parts fit perfectly. Exact compatibility is a basic prerequisite for trouble-free installation and perfect results.

Proper Assembly: Details Matter

For insulation to fulfill its purpose, it is essential to pay attention to every detail of assembly. Key elements are:

• Quality vapor barrier: Prevents moisture from penetrating the insulation layer.
• Corrosion protection: Before installation, all metal parts of the container must be thoroughly cleaned and painted with an anti-corrosion coating.
• Elimination of thermal bridges: Proper connection of individual EPS parts will prevent heat loss.
• Even ventilation: Necessary to prevent mold formation and ensure a healthy environment.

The delivery also includes a recommended work procedure and drawings of individual parts, which you will receive after confirmation and payment of your order.

Universal Use for All Types of Container Structures

EPS 150 is suitable for a wide range of applications:

• Housing: Year-round homes, vacation cottages, tiny houses – significant increase in comfort and reduction in energy consumption.
• Offices: Quickly built workspaces with pleasant climate.
• Warehouses: Stable temperature protects goods from frost and overheating and reduces the risk of condensation.
• Workshops and studios: Protection of equipment and materials, comfort at work.
• Technical and server rooms: Minimizing moisture, stable temperature conditions for sensitive equipment.

Container insulation using EPS 150 is an investment in long-term lifespan, cost savings and overall comfort. Thanks to quality material and precise parts, assembly is quick, efficient and without unnecessary complications. Remember to carefully check the compatibility of your container so everything fits perfectly – only then will you get the most out of this modern solution.
