Experience the benefits of polyurethane foam
Unmatched thermal performance
Polyurethane foam excels in thermal insulation, keeping your building warm in winter and cool in summer. With one of the highest R-values available, it’s the go-to choice for energy efficiency, ensuring comfort year-round while slashing energy costs.
Noise control
Polyurethane foam doesn’t just insulate against temperature—it’s also a powerful sound barrier. Whether for residential or commercial use, it effectively reduces noise transmission, creating quieter, more peaceful spaces.
Built to last
Durable and resilient, polyurethane foam stands the test of time. It strengthens the structural integrity of buildings and requires minimal maintenance, offering long-term value. While the initial investment may be higher, the savings on energy bills and reduced upkeep make it a smart, cost-effective choice.
Moisture and chemical resistance
Polyurethane foam is naturally resistant to moisture and chemicals, making it ideal for environments where these factors are a concern. In industrial settings, it protects metal structures like pipes and tanks from corrosion, extending their lifespan.
Excellent energy efficiency
With its superior R-value per inch, polyurethane foam delivers strong thermal performance. It’s ideal for both new constructions and retrofit projects, significantly reducing energy consumption and costs.
Versatile applications
Polyurethane insulation adapts to your project’s needs. It’s suitable for everything from new builds to renovations, and even specialised industrial applications, making it a versatile and reliable choice.
Buy the right polyurethane insulation in Australia
When it comes to polyurethane foam insulation, picking the right product is crucial. For residential and commercial projects, focus on R-value, installation ease, and material thickness. In industrial settings, prioritise chemical and moisture resistance, along with the foam’s ability to maintain temperature under tough conditions.

Polyurethane insulation FAQs
What is polyurethane foam?
Polyurethane foam is a tough, lightweight polymer perfect for insulation in construction and industrial settings. It’s created by mixing polyols and diisocyanates, resulting in a foam that expands and solidifies.
Depending on its type, polyurethane foam can be open-cell or closed-cell, with closed-cell foam standing out for its top-tier thermal performance and moisture resistance.
What is the difference between open-cell and closed-cell polyurethane foam?
Open-cell polyurethane foam is lightweight and less dense, ideal for interiors where soundproofing and moderate insulation are needed. It’s softer, more affordable, and perfect for indoor use.
Closed-cell foam is denser, delivering superior insulation with a higher R-value and excellent moisture resistance, making it great for both indoor and outdoor applications, especially in demanding industrial environments.
How long does polyurethane foam last?
Polyurethane foam insulation is built to last. Properly installed, it can maintain its insulating power for 20 to 30 years or more.
Its resistance to moisture, pests, and settling ensures it stays effective, making it a long-term solution for energy efficiency and structural strength.
Is polyurethane foam good for noise control?
Absolutely. Polyurethane foam excels at acoustic insulation, helping to block sound waves and reduce noise transmission.
While closed-cell foam offers better thermal insulation, open-cell foam is especially good at soaking up sound, thanks to its softer, more porous structure.
Is polyurethane foam safe for indoor use?
Yes, when properly installed, polyurethane foam insulation is safe for indoor use. Once it cures, the foam becomes stable and doesn’t release harmful chemicals.
Proper ventilation during installation is crucial, but after that, the foam helps create a healthier indoor environment by improving insulation and air quality.
How do I choose the right thickness of polyurethane foam?
The right thickness of polyurethane foam depends on your project’s insulation needs and the R-value you’re targeting.
Generally, thicker foam layers offer better insulation, but the ideal thickness varies based on climate, building codes, and specific application areas.
Consult an insulation expert or check local regulations to determine the best thickness for your project.
