Why Use Spray Foam Insulation

About Icynene

Are you in the research stages of finding insulation that’s right for your project? Read our guide on why you should use spray foam insulation and why Icynene® is best for you.

Why Use Spray Foam Insulation?

Spray foam was invented in the 1940’s, originally used in military operations before it became a staple insulation for homes in the 1950’s. The invention of the advanced spray nozzle meant that it could be quickly and easily applied, making it one of the quickest insulation techniques around.

Icynene spray foam insulation is popular due to it’s expanding action; it automatically fills any nook and cranny for a completely insulated solution. Other classic forms of insulation are rigid and only create a singular barrier, such as insulation board and earth wool. Spray foam insulation also provides a double whammy of benefits, as its strength provides structural support. Best of all, it lasts indefinitely!
