SOPREMA
SOPREMA was founded in 1908 by Charles Geisen, while seeking to develop a fully waterproof fabric that would also be flexible and easy to install, found the solution
by soaking jute fabric in hot bitumen. The result gave
a lightweight but strong screed which came to be
known as “MAMMOUTH®“, learn more about our company history.
Today, the company operates over 50 manufacturing plants and has a presence in 90 countries across the world. In the U.S., we manufacture in Wadsworth,
Ohio and Gulfport, Mississippi. SOPREMA continues
to operate with core values of integrity, respect, commitment to excellence and a focus on sustainable product development to minimize our impact on
the environment.

What Makes the SOPRA-XPS Unique?
Resistant in All of Its Aspects.
In addition to being resistant to water and water vapor, SOPRA-XPS panels are versatile and capable of withstanding extreme temperature changes and freeze-thaw cycles without permanent damage. Moreover, even when exposed to moisture, SOPRA-XPS resists mold and bacteria.
Toughness and Sustainability.
Rigid and non-friable, SOPRA-XPS panels are suitable for a variety of applications. Sharp and clean cuts are easy to make and do not generate dust. Lightweight and easy to install, SOPRA-XPS panels are offered with various compressive strengths to meet all needs. Moreover, they provide one of the highest compressive strengths on the market, whether against heavy or dynamic loads.
Constant Performance.
SOPRA-XPS panels are compliant with the CAN ULC S701.1 standard thanks to the following four features: good compressive strength, high R-value (R-5/inch), dimensional stability and very low water absorption. Moreover, they provide a constant long-term R-value (LTTR) of R-5 per inch, even at low temperatures. They maintain their thermal and mechanical performance throughout the life of the building.
