Title: Blue Styrofoam
Post by: Chimpfoot on September 11, 2020, 07:36:20 PM

Hey all
Thought I'd post this one here where all the building work goes on.
Does anyone know of a good supplier of blue Styrofoam in the UK?

 Bought a probably 5x2 by 50mm sheet of it fumpty years ago and I'm just now coming to the end of it.

Can't for the life of me think where I got it delivered from.

Anybody got the knowledge?
Where do you get yours?

Much appreciate any sign posts.
Cheers all

last time I looked into this I found 'Panel Systems'
When you get onto their web-site search for 'Modelling foam'
Never got around to actually ordering as couldn't get enough
mates interested in doing a bulk order.

I got mine from the underfloor heating store in Essex. Drove there from Kent and picked it up. Suppose it depends on where you are. It is not the smoothest but it worked ok for me.

Search on eBay for bathroom, underfloor or shower insulation.


I've had good service from a company called GB-Range (https://www.ebay.co.uk/sch/gb-range/m.html?_nkw=&_armrs=1&_ipg=&_from=) on eBay.
