We are proud to announce that we recently welcomed Imran Khan to our Kingspan Insulation North America-Miami team as our Director of Sales & Marketing! We are looking forward to all that he has to offer and are thankful to add a team member with such an extensive background. 

A few parties have recently asked about the availability of ISO-HT^® polyisocyanurate for use in higher-temperature applications up to 350°F (375°F intermittent). The short answer is Kingspan is continuing to manufacture and aggressively market ISO-HT^® as one of our important premier product lines. 

Kingspan is very proud to have one of its long-term employees at Dyplast-Miami, Robert Sanchinel, nominated for "Employee of the Year" within the South Florida Manufacturers Association (SFMA). SFMA President, Matt Rocco, has stated that good manufacturing employees are VERY hard to find and even harder to keep. That's why SFMA solicits applications from its more than 2,000 members to present a rigorous presentation of why a candidate is worthy of the nomination. 

Dyplast Products is now folded into Kingspan Insulation North America (an affiliate of Kingspan Global) after the recent acquisition, and we are happy to now announce Dyplast's ninth consecutive Safety Excellence Award from the National Insulation Association (NIA) - - this time a Platinum - - the highest honor. The Safety Excellence Award is the only national award for outstanding safety performance in the mechanical/industrial insulation industry. While we have learned from others, we trust there are some that can learn from us. 

Positive impacts from Kingspan Insulation's March acquisition of Dyplast Products are already advancing, and there will be much more to come. In this Press Release, we announced GeoFoam 2.5 and 3.0 - - higher densities to complement our existing 1, 1.25, 1.5, and 2 lb/ft³ GeoFoam products. The higher densities/strengths of GeoFoam 2.5 & 3.0 may be appropriate for instance when loads and traffic on highways, bridge ramps, or building constructions cannot be affordably achieved with locally available compactible fills.

Herein we will be sharing more on some of the most frequently asked questions about GeoFoam as an introduction to the Datasheet. 

Most of you know Dyplast^® manufactures Expanded Polystyrene (EPS) products to serve the Southeast U.S., with the most vibrant markets in Florida - - where our factory and business operations are centered. Dyplast manufactures EPS blocks using a molding process to achieve densities of 1.0, 1.25, 1.5, and 2.0 lb/ft3. Our production capacities allow us to meet market demands for large or small volume projects. This Qwik Guide simply offers a one-page summary of those products with short descriptions.

This one-page Qwik Guide contains a sampling of the conclusions from the past three Technical Bulletins from Dyplast that explored Logical Thinking regarding the performance of thermal insulants at very low and cryogenic temperatures. The topics are complex, and we encourage you to read each of the three Technical Bulletins to better understand the multifaceted discussions and caveats that may better inform decision-makers. 

Dyplast Products is releasing the final installment of its 3-part series of Technical Bulletins to address "Logical Thinking" when specifying mechanical insulation for very cold/cryogenic applications. In this document, we continue our discussion about how the environment at very low/cryogenic temperatures is very different from the ambient conditions sometimes set by the test protocols of many standard organizations. 

All of us at Dyplast wish you the Happiest Holidays and the very best in the New Year!!
