Polyurethane spray foam insulation is one of the most versatile forms of insulation available. Spray foam can be used for many different types of applications including boats and buildings. It has a continuous membrane that can bond to almost any structure and can cling to voids and curves unattainable to other forms of insulation. Spray foam provides the most efficient insulating available. It weatherproofs and stabilises structures thereby extending the life of the unit being sprayed.

Applied in liquid form, the material expands to the required thickness then sets in a rigid foam, giving a continuous, thermal barrier, which eliminates draughts and condensation problems, saving energy and costs. Just 30mm of spray foam will reduce all condensation and cold spots, It has the most efficient insulation ratings of any insulation on the market.

Spray on polyurethane foam is an ideal way to insulate narrow boats and buildings. Spray foam boat insulation can offer boat owners, builders and enthusiasts many benefits including:

• Keeping boats warmer in winter and cooler in summer
• Eliminating and preventing condensation
• No cutting or fixing required – foam adheres directly to the surface
• Reduces external and vibration noise
• Water resistance 

Polyurethane Spray foam is different to traditional rock wool and boarded insulation as, the foam is sprayed directly onto the inside of the hull and adheres to most surfaces. The advantage of this is that there is no air gap between the metal/wooden shell and the insulation. This means that condensation cannot form behind the insulation and erode the metal or rot the wood.
As the foam is sprayed, it expands which makes it perfect for getting into voids, curves and under battens forming a superior adhesive barrier of insulation. The sprayed foam cures within minutes as it contains separate pockets of gas which slows down the movement of heat through the foam, as well as creating a continuous rigid foam, `moisture free` closed cell structure.
Foam insulation has a major advantage, as it can achieve maximum coverage on all surfaces, as the foam expands and fills gaps not usually accessible by traditional insulation methods, such as sheet insulation and rock wool. Spray foam is sprayed onto the inside of the surface whereas sheet insulation and rock wool must be accurately cut to size and fitted, leaving gaps and joins in the insulation. The thickness depends on the level of insulation required, and for most applications, 30mm sprayed on to the inside of the boat or building allows, the foam to fit neatly between the battens and deliver valuable space savings required in most boats, while also being sufficient to insulate your boat throughout.
