What is Polystyrene Cladding?
Polystyrene cladding is a lightweight insulation system made from expanded polystyrene (EPS) panels, commonly used in modern construction to improve energy efficiency, soundproofing, and structural durability. This cost-effective solution is ideal for external walls, roofing, flooring, and partitioning in both new builds and renovation projects.

Key Benefits of Polystyrene Cladding

Energy Efficiency
Polystyrene cladding reduces heat loss in winter and heat gain in summer, leading to lower energy consumption and reduced electricity bills.

Lightweight & Easy to Install
EPS cladding is lightweight, making it easier to transport and install. Its lightweight nature makes it particularly well-suited for second-storey applications, reducing structural load and installation time.

Fire Resistance
Expanded polystyrene (EPS) contains fire-retardant properties, helping meet Australian building safety codes and providing enhanced protection.

Cost-Effective Alternative
Polystyrene cladding is more affordable than brick and concrete while offering superior insulation and durability.

Acoustic Insulation
EPS panels provide some soundproofing benefits, reducing noise transmission between rooms and external environments.

Durability & Low Maintenance
Polystyrene is resistant to moisture and cracking, ensuring long-lasting performance with minimal upkeep.

Polystyrene is a lightweight, high-performance insulation material used in modern construction to improve thermal efficiency, durability, and soundproofing. It is widely used for external cladding, wall insulation, and roofing systems due to its cost-effectiveness, ease of installation, and energy-saving benefits.
Polystyrene cladding provides superior thermal insulation, helping buildings stay cooler in summer and warmer in winter. By reducing heat transfer, it lowers energy consumption, leading to reduced heating and cooling costs for both residential and commercial properties.
Yes, expanded polystyrene (EPS) cladding includes fire-retardant properties, making it a safe insulation choice when installed correctly. When used in compliance with Australian building codes, it enhances fire resistance while maintaining excellent insulation performance.
Yes, polystyrene is highly versatile and can be used for both interior and exterior insulation. Common applications include:
- External wall cladding – Improves energy efficiency and building aesthetics.
- Internal partitions – Enhances insulation and soundproofing.
- Roof and floor insulation – Provides thermal comfort in multi-storey buildings.
Yes, polystyrene cladding can be rendered, painted, or coated to match your desired aesthetic. We can apply acrylic renders, textured coatings, or smooth finishes to enhance its durability and appearance while maintaining its insulation benefits.
Polystyrene (EPS) cladding is a more affordable and lightweight option, making it ideal for second-storey applications and projects where cost and ease of installation are priorities. It provides good thermal insulation but offers less fire resistance than Hebel.
In contrast, Hebel is stronger, more fire-resistant, and better at reducing noise, making it a superior choice for structural applications, bushfire-prone areas, and high-density housing.
While both materials improve energy efficiency, Hebel provides greater durability and compliance with strict fire safety standards. If you need help choosing the right option for your project, contact Guardian Building Group today for expert advice.
