Icynene, is a spray-in-place, expanding soft foam insulation and air barrier system is 100% water-blown and contains no harmful emissions. Applied as a liquid, Icynene expands to 100 times its volume in seconds to fill every crack and crevice while remaining flexible so that the integrity of the building envelope seal remains intact over time.

"As proven technology, Icynene® delivers multiple benefits including superior thermal performance with up to 50 percent in energy savings, healthier indoor air by reducing condensation-related mold and mildew and reduced sound transmission, explained Mick Morris. “It can be used in residential, commercial, and industrial applications involving all types of construction materials and offers significant increases in energy efficiency, increasing air tightness and reducing CO2 emissions.

"Icynene is also popular with design professionals as it enables them to explore geometry and space without compromising building envelope performance. As an air barrier, Icynene will meet or exceed the air tightness performance standards set out by the Code for Sustainable Homes," added Mr Morris.
