Polyurethane foam is an excellent solution for the thermal and acoustic insulation of homes, leisure facilities and factories. It is a resource increasingly used in the sealing of doors, windows and sanitation, as well as walls and walls.
It has numerous advantages as an insulator because its technical properties are maintained, even in extreme temperatures between -50ºC and 110ºC. In addition, once cured, the foam can be cut, sanded or painted.

Thermal properties of polyurethane foam
Thermal insulation has direct consequences on the energy consumed by a building, the use of adequate thermal insulation is key to achieving energy efficiency in any location, home or office.
It is necessary to act on facades, doors, windows, roofs, etc. to improve its insulation and reduce energy losses due to infiltrations and thermal bridges. Through the polyurethane foam you can save energy.
The structure of the foam and its high crosslinking density leads to characteristics such as excellent insulation, good thermal stability properties and high compressive strength. For example, insulating windows with materials such as polyurethane can reduce heat loss by 50%.
Polyurethane has a very low thermal conductivity, which makes it one of the most effective insulation currently available for a wide range of applications. To this we must add the little space required, since the foam contains only a small part of the volume of solid matter.
Acoustic properties of polyurethane foam
In many homes they suffer from noise from outside or inside the homes themselves. The polyurethane foam is an excellent acoustic insulator and has a great effectiveness in noise absorption and soundproofing of the house.
This material has a great sealing capacity and can be used both in doors and windows, sanitation, walls and walls. Its acoustic properties are mainly due to its sealing capacity, which provides very good results in insulation against airborne noise.
In addition to isolating homes in urban areas or near noise sources, expanded polyurethane foam effectively insulates nightclubs, coffee shops, factories and other places where high noise levels are reached.
Blinker polyurethane foams achieve great results in thermal and acoustic insulation. At the time of applying the foam, it is advisable to protect nearby areas so that they do not stick when they come into contact with them.
