SPRAY APPLIED POLYURETHANE INSULATION (Feb 2007)
Spray applied polyurethane (PUR) products offer a unique combination of features and benefits that cannot be matched by any other insulation solution. It is an extremely versatile and robust method of improving the insulation and energy efficiency of buildings whilst offering stabilisation to existing roofs without the need for disruptive re-roofing projects. The spray applied PUR product gives a continuous layer of insulating foam which bonds onto any type of surface. It also has the benefit of being able to form itself to any shape or profile of surface meaning that it a very practical way of insulating all types of buildings.
Roofs, walls and floors, of domestic, industrial, commercial and agricultural buildings are all commonly insulated using internally applied sprayed applied PUR and PIR to the internal surfaces.
The work is carried out by experienced contractors who work to the BBA Accreditation scheme and to British Standard Codes of Practice.
