Foam-in-Place Polyurethane Insulation

Among the many insulation materials we can choose from are foam-in-place products for filling cavities or creating a continuous layer on a wall or roof system. The most common of these is spray polyurethane foam, referred to in the industry as SPF.

There are two types of polyurethane foam: closed-cell and open-cell, both of which must be installed by trained insulation contractors.
