WE'LL CHANGE THE WAY YOU THINK
ABOUT INSULATION

Today it’s almost impossible to think of any type of building material that hasn’t been improved upon over time. Insulation is no exception.

What is The Icynene Insulation System®?
It is a superior insulation that weds building science technology with design performance.

Some Fast Facts About Icynene®, Our insulation:

• is a soft, spray-in-place, light density, expanding foam insulation
• acts as both an insulation and air barrier
• provides superior control of air leakage
• provides a custom fit every time it is installed because it expands 100x its initial volume
• is environmentally-friendly, non-toxic, odorless, and formaldehyde free
• delivers improved sound control
• provides an ideal base for a healthy home

A Healthier Home
More important to a growing number of homeowners, Icynene® is a healthier alternative to conventional insulation. By completely sealing
the building envelope, Icynene® provides a protective barrier preventing allergens, dust and mold spores from entering the home. It is
a water-based product containing none of the harmful chemicals and gasses often associated with other insulations.

By minimizing air infiltration, Icynene® also reduces the amount of airborne moisture that can result in condensation and mold.

A Quieter Home
Traffic, neighborhood activities, and plumbing runs can be the sources of annoying sounds – the unwanted noises that can invade living spaces, hindering comfort and enjoyment. These sounds most commonly travel through the air. By sealing the building envelope, Icynene® effectively minimizes airborne sounds in the mid-range frequencies.

Icynene® is perfect for limiting noises from plumbing runs, roads, home theaters and playrooms.

A More Energy Efficient Home
With Icynene®, energy costs are reduced by up to 50% versus conventional insulation. And the savings don’t stop there. The elimination of random air leakage (which is a common occurrence in many buildings) allows Icynene® homes to maintain the same heating and cooling performance with smaller, less expensive HVAC equipment. Labor and materials normally required to achieve a properly sealed building envelope are no longer necessary.

And Icynene® also significantly contributes to homeowners securing an energy efficient mortgage.

And A More Mold Resistant Home
Recently we've all read the numerous reports of dangerous molds growing in and on walls, crawlspaces, and attics. This can happen when warm moist air contacts cooler surfaces and generates condensation. Because Icynene®
completely seals the building envelope, it can be an effective component in a mold prevention program.

In addition, testing by Texas Tech University confirmed that Icynene® is not a food source for mold.
