We offer a variety of rigid foam products to guarantee your construction project is insulated right.
Types of Rigid Foam Insulation
You can choose from three types of rigid foam board for your building project:
- Expanded Bead Board – Often used for insulated concrete forms or roof and wall panel insulation on commercial buildings, it’s made from foam akin to foam packing material, and is the least expensive of the rigid foam insulation options but has a lower insulation capacity per inch.
- Extruded Blue Board – It’s widely used in home insulation, especially basements, and provides stable, high quality thermal performance over time.
- Polyiso Foam Board – The most expensive rigid foam insulation product, it also comes with the highest insulation capacity. Reflective foil facing polyisocyanurate adds to its thermal capacity when used in buildings with radiant heat.
