Aitight Foam Energy Solutions Product Description
Product Description
Airtight Foam Energy Solutions, (AFES), rigid polyurethane foams are technically advanced, low viscosity, two component systems specifically designed for spray operations to produce a rigid polyurethane foam insulation for use between studs in walls construction and surfaces requiring excellent thermal insulation properties. Properly installed, the finished foam insulation resits attack by moisture, crude oil, and most commonly used chemicals and solvents. AFES' A component is a polymeric isocyanate containing reactive isocyanate groups. The B component is a combination of polyols, catalytic agents, and blowing agents. It is then pumped in a 1 to 1 ratio by volume.

Credentials and Certifications
All of Airtight Foam Energy Solutions' systems satisfy the Class 1 flammability criteria, as set forth under Underwriter Laboratories ( UL 723, ASTM E-84-77A, UBC 42-1 ), and possess the flammability characteristics below:
  • Flame Spread            .....20
  • Smoke Development .....275
This numerical flame spread rating is not intended to reflect hazards presented by this or any other material under actual fire conditions. For proper use refer to the following codes or guides:
  • Southern Standard Building Code, Section 2603
  • BOCA Basic Building Code, Section 2603
  • ICBO Uniform Building Code, Section 2602
  • ICBO Uniform Building Code, Section 1712
  • Meets the requirements of the State of California Bureau of Home Furnishings and Thermal Insulation, Registration # CA-T352
