Why is Spray Foam Superior for Under Slabs?
Closed-cell spray foam insulation is the best performing insulation because it sprays and sticks directly to the substrate giving you:
Complete air sealing,
Superior thermal value,
​
Moisture control,
​
Noise reduction, and
​
Structural support.
We Improve Your Homes Energy Efficiency With Spray Foam.
Using Closed Cell Spray Foam installed by our certified installers, we will maximise your homes energy efficiency by a further ~30%, saving you BIG on heating and cooling running costs.
What is Polyurethane Spray Foam?
Polyurethane Spray Foam is a type of insulation material that is commonly used in the construction industry for its insulating properties and ability to seal gaps, cracks, and voids in buildings. Here's a detailed breakdown:
-
Composition: Polyurethane foam is derived from a combination of two primary components: isocyanate and polyol. When these two components are mixed together in the presence of specific catalysts and blowing agents, they react chemically and expand, forming a foam.
-
Types: There are two main types of polyurethane spray foam:
-
Open-cell foam: This type has a lower density and is softer. It is more permeable to air and moisture. It's recommended for use in interior applications.
-
Closed-cell foam: This type has a higher density and is more rigid. It provides a higher R-value (thermal resistance) per inch than open-cell foam and acts as a moisture and vapor barrier. It's often used in exterior applications or areas where higher insulation values or strength are needed.
-
-
Applications: Polyurethane spray foam is widely used in a variety of applications, including:
-
Insulating walls, roofs, and floors
-
Sealing gaps and cracks to prevent drafts
-
Soundproofing
-
Enhancing structural integrity
-
Preventing moisture infiltration
-
Includes Fire Retardants meeting Building Code Australian requirements

Thermal & Structural
Performance
Closed-cell spray foam insulation has the highest R-value of any insulation material, providing excellent thermal insulation and reducing energy costs.
Closed-cell spray foam insulation can increase the structural strength of a building by up to 300%, making it an excellent choice for areas prone to high winds, hurricanes, or earthquakes.
Air & Sound
Performance
Acts as a complete air barrier, which prevents air leakage and drafts, improving indoor air quality and reducing heating and cooling costs.
Reduces noise transmission by reducing vibrations making it an ideal choice for added soundproofing.
Water Barrier
Performance
Impermeable to water, which means it prevents mold and mildew growth.
It will also reduce the risk of water damage to the building structure.
Environmental & Sustainable
Closed-cell spray foam insulation is made with sustainable resources and is free of harmful chemicals such as formaldehyde and CFCs.
It also have certified VOC's with 100% off-gassing within 24 hrs.
Longevity & Integrity
Perfromance
Closed-cell spray foam insulation is long-lasting and doesn't degrade over time, unlike some other types of insulation.
