Product description Polyurethan solidifying foam is a chemically produced liquid mixture that forms a cell structure. It is the most advanced insulation material available today. A controlled reaction, which takes place within the compound, causes the foam to expand as soon as it is ejected from the spray gun. It solidifies immediately and amalgamates permanently with the treated surface. The effectiveness of Polyrethane foam is achieved by the trillions of air pockets, which make up this insulation material. PU-hardfoam should not be confused with ordinary insulation foams. Its hardness and durability are far superiour.
High temperature resistance Its high range of temperature resistance from minus 400 to plus 300 degrees Fahrenheit makes PU-foam a material for unlimited uses.
Watertight The extremely low permeability to humidity and steam render PU-foam waterproof. Resistance to chemicals
Polyurethane foam has an excellent resistance to chemicals and is virtually indestructible. Only very few acids can alter its properties.
Verminproof Since PU-foam has no nutritive value, it does not attract fungi, termites, rodents of insects.
Odourless Because PU-foam is completely odourless it is very well suited for insulating food outlets and cool rooms. PU-foam does neither create nor absorb odours. Fireproof PU-foam contains a fireretardent agent according to German specifications.
Non deteriorating In laboratory tests conducted by BASF, simulating the accelerated passage of time, it has been proven that PU-foam even after 80 years does not show any significant deterioration.
Environmentally friendly PU-foam does not create any dust and is completely free of toxins.
The transport area
PU-foam is used on all kinds of vehicles for the purpose of insulation, reenforcement, elimination of vibrations and soundproofing. For the insulation of refrigerator vans PU-foam is the ideal material.
Floating objects Due to its low weight PU-foam enhances buoyancy and stability while insulation boats, buoys and other folating objects. Properly insulated object of this nature becomes unsinkable. For this reason the Lloyd’s insurance company has issued a certificate for PU-foam to be used on all lifeboats. Protection against corrosion
PU-foam, when spayed on to iron beams, forms an airtight casing thus preventing corrosion. Soundproofing
PU-foam reduces the propagation of sound in many areas. Engine noises can be made tolerable by covering the unit with egg cartons which have been treated with PU-foam. The spread of other sounds such as in music and TV studios, discotheques, hobby workshops and such like can be greatly reduced.
Decoration
Interior designers find many uses for PU-foam: landscapes and figures of foam make shop windows, bars, restaurants, discos, sales departments and showrooms more attractive.
