ABP Building Products (ABP) was established to focus the manufacturing and engineering expertise of ABP Multi Styrene (Pty) Ltd, on the developing uses of expanded polystyrene (EPS) in the construction industry.

Expanded polystyrene (EPS) building systems are commonplace in the rest of the world and are gaining increasing acceptance in South Africa.

Issues of global warming and, in South Africa, concerns over power supply are driving the building industry to more energy efficient product solutions.

Currently South Africa rates very poorly when buildings are graded on their energy efficiency primarily because the climate here has always been considered temperate and sources of energy have been inexpensive.

Labour has also always been regarded as cheap.

The requirement criteria for building materials have therefore not been based on either labour or energy efficiency.

Expanded polystyrene offers a viable alternative for building products due primarily to its thermal insulation, lightweight and decorative properties.
