With a combined experience of more than 60 years within the construction industry Gerry Sheridan and Paddy Leighton set up Greentherm Solutions Ltd to distribute and market the Icynene range of Spray foam Insulation products to the UK building and construction market. They have successfully identified a gap within the market for an innovative insulation product that could provide higher levels of insulation combined with improved air tightness in a single application. As you are probably aware conventional insulations are not capable of doing this and therefore have a detrimental effect on good basic construction practices and also energy efficiency measures. The range of soft, flexible Icynene Spray Foam Insulation products are a series of solutions that will deliver up to 50% greater energy savings when compared to other types of insulation products. Icynene is the ideal option for loft insulation, cavity wall insulation, drylining insulation, sound insulation and many more types of application. Icynene expands when sprayed into place completely filling all of the cavities and voids to create a sealed building envelope which will eliminate air leakage/infiltration. Air leakage/infiltration can often account for up to 50% of the heat loss from domestic or commercial building. Icynene is actually unlike other foams because it's unique polyicynene formulation is 100% water blown which contains no harmful agents, volatile organic chemicals, HCFCs, HFAs, HFCs or even formaldehyde. Icynene is highly regarded as the only foam on the market that has been successfully tested and certified for applications directly to the underside of breathable and non breathable roof membranes and felts and recently received BBA certification for this application. Also Icynene has been developed to absorb the lowest amount of moisture possible and has the highest level of vapour resistivity of any other soft foam product within the market place.
