Summary
Global Geofoams Market-Segmented by Type , Application , and Geography-Trends and Forecasts ( 2017-2022 ). Geofoam is vulnerable to damage when exposed to certain petroleum solvents which has to be taken care during construction . If needed , the geofoam can be blanketed with hydrocarbonresistant geomembranes for protection .
Description
The global Geofoams market is valued at xx USD million in 2015 and is expected to grow at a CAGR of 10 % during the forecast period .
Geofoams are used to provide a lightweight void fill below a highway , bridge or parking lot . Geofoams are also used in much broader applications , including lightweight fill for construction on soft ground , slope stabilization compressible inclusions , thermal insulation and drainage .
The Geofoams market in the North American region is growing fast due to the evolving environmental regulations . The Asia-Pacific region is also expected to generate huge demand for geofoams in the coming years as developing countries in the region are planning to undertake large scale infrastructure projects and other development projects which is expected to be a key driver for geofoams in this region .

DRIVERS
One of the key drivers for the geofoam industry is the low density of geofoams which is approximately 1 to 2 percent of the weight of soil . The typical densities for EPS fill are approximately 0.7 and 2.85 pounds per cubic foot which helps in maintaining a predictable compressive strength that is suitable for many structural applications .
