Reduce energy bills and make
your home warmer with breathable
spray-foam insulation from Icynene

the modern


way to


insulate


A


well-insulated house means a healthier, quieter
and more energy-efficient home with better
comfort levels and lower heating bills. And
nothing does a better job of insulation than Icynene.
Icynene is a spray-applied insulation foam that
expands 100-fold when applied, sealing all gaps,
service holes and hard-to-reach spaces — completely
eliminating cold bridging and helping to reduce your
winter fuel bills.

Developed for severe Canadian winters, Icynene is
suitable for all building types, from new builds to
heritage properties; from timber or steel frame to
all-masonry construction.
Icynene has also been approved by the Energy
Saving Trust for its outstanding insulation qualities.
The Energy Saving Trust is an independent and
impartial organisation, which promotes energy
efficiency across the domestic housing sector,
helping consumers to save energy in their homes.
If you are concerned about Icynene’s environmental
impact, you’ll be reassured to know that the
insulation has a Global Warming Potential [GWP] of
1 and an Ozone Depletion Potential [ODP] of 0.
Icynene gives off no hydrofluorocarbon [HFCs] or
harmful gasses, and its open-cell composition allows
the building to breathe naturally.
Icynene is professionally installed by trained and
approved contractors and comes with a
comprehensive, 25-year manufacturer’s guarantee.
