Closed Cell Spray Foam Insulation
HEATLOK SOY®
A closed cell Spray Polyurethane Foam Insulation, is an environmentally-friendly foam developed from recycled plastic materials, renewable soy oils, and possesses the zero ozone depletion potential blowing agent HFC 245FA, which is approved by EPA for the protection of the environment. It is one of the most effective insulating materials available today.
Environmentally-safe and non-toxic insulation is safe for chemically-sensitive persons and can be used for residential and commercial projects in all types of construction (wood, masonry, and steel). Because it completely air-seals the building envelope, moisture problems are eliminated, and energy efficiency and air quality are improved. Combined with proper mechanical ventilation, it is the answer to improving indoor air quality and creating a healthy clean environment by reducing the infiltration of dust, allergens, odors, and pollutants.
This helps to more efficiently utilize the world's non renewable resources. HEATLOK SOY® can reduce excess waste and energy consumption in buildings by up to 50%. By using HEATLOK SOY® it is possible to reduce the size of the HVAC equipment.
HEATLOK SOY® is a two-component spray-applied rigid polyurethane closed cell spray foam, green in color, having a nominal density 2 lbs/ft³. It is used primarily as an air barrier and vapor barrier, while using minimum material acting as insulation.
