The GREENZONE® Team Is Growing!

GREENZONE® is an insect and termite barrier technology which integrates a compressible foam substrate with bifenthrin (see picture below) creating significant savings in labour and materials to install a combined termite repellent and compressible foam layer.  The core innovation is the integration of a termite repellent into expansion joint foam which can be applied to all elements of construction that require a termite barrier in order to comply with the Building Code of Australia.GREENZONE® is a polyethylene expansion gap flexible foam containing Bifenthrin to act as a barrier to termites, black ant and cockroaches. Bifenthrin is a pyrethroid insecticide and termiticide, a 4th generation pyrethroid, which is virtually insoluble in water (with a solubility of only 0.1 mg/l) and the longest residual termiticide currently registered on the market. Bifenthrin is a product used worldwide and is common in pesticides and termiticides – safety data is readily available (see SDS/MSDS for further information)Application:1. PENETRATION (PIPE) WRAP APPLICATION GREENZONE® is used as an expansion foam around pipe penetration in concrete slab construction. By using GREENZONE® in this manner, the need to install a secondary termite collar barrier is removed. As GREENZONE® provides both termite protection and addresses the expansion/contraction of concrete around penetrations in one-step.2. CONTROL JOINT APPLICATION GREENZONE® is used as an expansion foam in control joints required in concrete slab construction. By using GREENZONE® in this manner, the need to install a secondary termite fabric barrier is removed. As GREENZONE® provides both termite protection and addresses the expansion/contraction of concrete slabs in one-step.3. CONCRETE INFILL SLAB APPLICATIONS GREENZONE® is used as an expansion foam in control joints required where concrete infill slabs abut a concrete or brick wall. By using GREENZONE®, the need to install a secondary termite fabric barrier is removed. GREENZONE® provides both termite protection and addresses the expansion and contraction of concrete infill slabs.Benefit:- Reduces complexity - expansion joint foam (EJF) incorporating termite barrier - 2-in-1 product- Speed of install - far speedier to install than legacy termite systems- Patented product - GREENZONE is the only EJF with termite barrier on the market- Support and education - GREENZONE provides CPD and technical support for all productsGREENZONE products are Australian developed for Australian conditions. GREENZONE was established in 2010 and caters to the Australia and International building and construction markets.
