About Our Sustainable Insulation Products

Insulation products go through rigorous assessments and tests, which compares their strengths and weaknesses across a variety of factors. Some of these are their thermal resistance, sound absorption, water permeability and much more. Insulants are also analysed under two environmentally friendly tests which tests for their Global Warming Potential (GWP) and their Ozone Depletion Potential (ODP). These two tests can show the impact that an insulation product can have on the environment and judging insulation material against these tests can provide insights into their eco-friendliness. Additionally, the means and method of insulation application can also provide key information as to how environmentally friendly it is.

Our foam insulation products meet and exceed these criteria’s. Firstly, our products are without the use of HFC and PBDE blowing agent, and instead, use a 100% water-blown formula. The GWP is measured by the blowing agent and assessing the damage potential. Our foam products without HFC and PBDE have a GWP of only 1, proving it to be the most sustainable insulation product on the market. Furthermore, the ODP of Icynene spray foam is 0, which conveys the product lets off no toxic emission into the atmosphere.

About Icynene Spray Foam Insulation

Spray foam insulation products can come in many shapes and sizes, however, not all of them have the environmental benefits that Icynene does. A reason why we use Icynene’s insulation is because of their superior environmental factors, over many other foam insulations. Icynene has received various certificates that supports its eco-friendliness, one of which is AMICA, which is a certificate issued by the European Association for Chronic Toxic Injury, strengthening the fact that Icynene lets of zero toxic emissions.

The Icynene insulation company also supports the fight against deforestation by planting 5 trees in national forests for every purchase of their product in the EU. In fact, every closed-cell foam insulation drum provided by Icynene, actually contains an average of 3,000 recycled plastic bottles.
