BASF Neopor® GPS Plus Now Available in Ekotrope Product Listings
Boston, MA (August 2025) – Ekotrope is excited to announce that BASF’s Neopor® GPS Plus is now available in our Product Listings. This next-generation rigid foam insulation brings enhanced performance, sustainability, and resilience directly into the Rater workflow.
Why Neopor® GPS Plus Stands Out
Superior thermal performance – Provides a higher R-value per inch than traditional XPS or EPS foams. Its graphite-enhanced design reflects radiant heat, delivering greater insulation effectiveness—especially as temperatures drop.
Stable performance over time – Unlike foams that rely on captive gases which can degrade (thermal drift), Neopor maintains its R-value long-term thanks to an air-based system.
Resource-efficient and low carbon – Achieves comparable R-values with up to 30–50% less material, resulting in thinner boards, lower embodied carbon, and reduced labor costs.
Moisture managing – Breathable and semi-permeable, Neopor reduces the risk of mold, rot, and structural damage—key for durable, resilient construction.
Flexible compression options – Available in multiple compression strengths to suit a variety of applications.
In the Ekotrope Rater App
When rating, look for Neopor® GPS Plus in the Assembly Builder → Envelope tab.
The listing includes a “Learn More” link on the Neopor GPS Plus layer, providing direct access to BASF spec sheets and Environmental Product Declarations (EPDs) right alongside thermal performance data.
Neopor® GPS Plus offers clear advantages—for better building performance, an improved carbon footprint, and stronger alignment with today’s green building standards.
