Sprayed polyurethane
Urethane is directly involved in the different cavities of all houses and buildings in liquid form that adheres directly to surfaces and forms a high performance insulating foam. A single application step provides the three essential properties of the building envelope: insulation, air barrier and vapor barrier.
In addition to having the highest heat resistance of the industry (R6 / inch), this foam control humidity of the walls and prevents the formation of mold even in a saturated environment of water (flood). If the foam has the ability to dry (ventilation, dehumidifier), the latter will resume its original properties.
Sprayed polyurethane is the only insulator for perfect continuity without mechanical nor fastening tape, eliminating heat loss and air infiltration.

Cellulose
Cellulose is made from recycled newspaper, is treated with natural products and has superior fire, moisture and vermin resistance. It provides an even coverage without joints or cracks, and provides a tight building envelope giving you natural comfort throughout the year. The high density and homogeneity of the cellulose also offer unmatched sound comfort.
