Expandable polystyrene (EPS) is often called Styrofoam but it is not. No CFCs and it is 100% recyclable. We took in all the used product we could get.
 Some of our biggest products were ICFs, Insulated Concrete Forms.

 Styrofoam is a trademark for extruded polystyrene.

You'll have to stop by and see what this stuff is.  It's blue and while you can see the cells of a styrofoam cup, this is 'homogenized?'
I admit I was speaking loosely when I said 'styrofoam.'  My mother makes fun of me for speaking loosely.
