Foam Insulation Contractors
Although a fast and economical way to insulate, spray polyurethane foam (SPF), like most other organic materials, is combustible. SPFs will, when ignited, burn rapidly and produce intense heat, dense smoke and gasses which are irritating, flammable and/or toxic. As with other organic materials, the most significant gas is usually carbon monoxide.
Whether you are using closed cell or open cell SPF, you need a thermal barrier that is easy to apply, performs and fits in the budget. Contego intumescent paint is your thermal barrier solution.
Contego provides superior fire protection for foam insulation, applies with the spray equipment you already have, is completely non-toxic and can be top coated with acrylic enamel for special applications that require wash-down, such as coolers, produce facilities, slaughterhouses, and more. Contego has a pleasant scent, zero VOCs, and is completely non-toxic, both in the can and during a burn. Contego has no health risks and is completely inoffensive.
