Insulation requires space. Just how much depends on the insulating performance of the material used. Rigid polyurethane (PU) foams insulate better than most other conventional insulating materials. That makes thinner solutions possible and creates more living space.

There are a number of common misunderstandings about polyurethane (PU) as an insulating material. The facts tell a different story, as the list shows.

We interviewed builders, architects and our customers what they think about polyurethanes in building and construction. See for yourself what they said.

If the sum of all properties is taken into account, the economic arguments speak for polyurethane (PU). Rigid PU foam – in the form of insulation boards, sandwich elements or other construction material – offers tailored, economical insulating solutions for almost every possible application. Four typical applications are detailed below.
