Ceiling and underground garage insulation
The insulation of the floors that cool from below is extremely important, since the ceiling insulation stops the draft and solves the problems caused by the cold floor. Garage insulation, basement insulation with PU foam: you will feel the difference!

Slab insulation cooling from below, ceiling insulation
If there are unheated rooms below the residential level of the building, the floor is insulated from below. If there is an unheated living space, basement or underground garage under your apartment, or if the floor protrudes from the building and is in contact with the open air, purfoam is the perfect solution for you.

We insulate wooden, concrete and steel slabs with closed-cell polyurethane foam, because the material provides excellent thermal insulation and 100% air sealing. Not only the cold floor and heat loss will be remedied, but also the air currents and thermal bridges caused by gaps and cracks, so the insulation provides not only heat, but also excellent sound insulation, and prevents moisture and musty smells.
Polyurethane foam insulation, unlike traditional materials, does not require any fixing technique, as it adheres perfectly to wooden or concrete surfaces. The sprayed foam is applied as a liquid, which expands into foam and hardens in seconds, so it does not have time to drip back. This makes it a complete seal and won't budge, so there are no gaps to allow for annoying drafts. Ceiling insulation made with polyurethane foam provides a perfect, fast and efficient solution that benefits property owners in every way.
Closed or open cell?
For wooden floors, we always prefer closed-cell insulation when it comes to ceiling insulation, because when using open-cell material, water vapor can penetrate the insulation more easily and therefore get trapped between the insulation and the base of the wooden floor. This situation can lead to rotting of the joists and subfloor, which in turn can cause moisture to penetrate, creating an ideal environment for mold to grow. In addition, the finished floor may swell and bow. For the above reasons, we always recommend closed-cell material for garage insulation and basement insulation projects, because effective moisture protection and long-term durability are also essential in these cases.
Scattered PU foam parking garage insulation
Closed-cell foam also optimally insulates the ceiling of parking garages, which is why more and more builders and property managers choose spray-on polyurethane for the insulation of underground garages. Condominium managers regularly complain that they have inherited parking garage problems with traditional insulation because traditional materials are complicated and expensive to attach, and these materials absorb moisture and are easily damaged. With board insulation, it is difficult, if not impossible, to ensure the absence of gaps, for example, around lighting fixtures, wires and plane transitions. Cellulose absorbs moisture, is easily damaged and falls onto the cars below, causing additional problems. Condensation collects on the ceilings of uninsulated garages and drips onto the cars below throughout the year, making it even more unpleasant that the floors of apartments above uninsulated garages become unbearably cold.
The solution is closed-cell foam insulation.
Closed-cell foam is energy-saving, prevents moisture and condensation, and is easy to apply, which is why it is superior to all other insulation. Fully closed, single-stage insulation that reduces the heat conduction of different materials into the heated space. It has a higher Lambda value than other traditional insulating materials, which is why a smaller thickness is sufficient, which is often a decisive factor in the case of underground garages with critical ceiling heights. Polyurethane is water and moisture resistant, ensuring that condensation, rain and humid environments do not damage the insulated areas. Scattered insulation is quick to install, so residents do not have to do without garage spaces for a long time: up to 1,000 m2 of insulation per day is possible.
Garage, basement, ceiling insulation with traditional materials
It is an almost impossible task to install board insulation perfectly and without gaps, because the insulation can break or crack due to the movement of the building, so the thermal seal is weakened and thermal bridges are formed. Through joints and cracks, cold can seep up from below, displacing the warm interior air, which can cause significant energy efficiency problems.
In addition, board insulation can be difficult and expensive to install, because when you add the costs of shipping, sizing, fixing, and cleaning to the cost of traditional materials, purfoam becomes a more than competitive solution. If you are not insulating a new slab, you will need to do a lot of preparation before installing the board insulation, such as moving the wires, removing the old insulation, and leveling the surface.
The construction is particularly time-consuming due to the complicated fastening, and traditional materials do not or only barely provide sound insulation and are not waterproof. A greater thickness will be required to achieve the same thermal insulation effect, so the advantages of the foam are clearly visible during thermal insulation projects.
Garage, basement, ceiling insulation with PU foam
Purfoam insulation provides better insulation than any other traditional insulation material, so you can expect lower cooling and heating costs. Your property will be cooler in summer and warmer in winter, resulting in a significant increase in comfort. Since it is a completely gap-free solution, the foam forms a perfect sealing layer and provides a continuous, waterproof layer.
Due to its vapor diffusion property, the house remains breathable, which is beneficial in maintaining a healthy microclimate in the building.
Purfoam adheres well and does not require complicated fixing, so installation is easier and faster.
Purfoam has a long life and does not shrink or settle over years. Unlike most traditional insulating materials, purfoam maintains its effectiveness for decades, thus offering a reliable solution in the long term.
You don't have to tear down or transport the old insulation, which makes the installation quick and clean. Thanks to the quick execution, the insulation of an average home takes about 1 day, so it causes minimal inconvenience to the residents.
