• Icynene is a remarkable spray-in-place soft foam insulation that not only insulates, it air seals.  Available for spray application or as a pourable foam, Icynene expands and cures in minutes.  As it expands, it forces its way into every corner and crevice completely filling the cavity to create its own continuous air barrier.



• Icynene offers the ability to completely seal the building envelope.  By eliminating random air leakage, the penetration of dust, allergens and pollutants can be significantly reduced.  It allows you to develop a controlled indoor environment so you can design your heating and cooling equipment to maximize air quality.



• Icynene foam is inert.  It does not shrink, sag, settle, slip, turn to dust or decline in R-value over time.  It offers no food value to bacteria, fungus, termites, carpenter ants or rodents.



• Icynene's unique air sealing qualities will also have a significant effect on reducing the air borne sound penetrating your home.



• In commercial buildings, Icynene is the one-application, permanent solution to corrosion problems and temperature control.

Icynene is the only insulation product certified by the Envirodesic™ program for maximizing indoor air quality.  It contains no formaldehyde and does not emit any detectable emissions after you move into your new home.  Icynene's foam technology for expansion is water based.  It uses no HCFCs which are harmful to our environment.  It has the look and feel of angel food cake.
