Why our products are superior

Since water has a relatively high thermal conductivity, a key factor for insulation performance and durability is keeping the insulation dry. Closed cell elastomeric thermal insulation may look similar from one brand to another, but the differences between our EPDM-type foam rubber and our competitors' products become apparent soon after installation. EPDM is a non-polar material and it repels water at a molecular level, and therefore maintains superior insulating performance over the project lifetime. Our competitors' products utilize a polar form of rubber which over time will draw moisture into the insulation resulting in degraded insulation performance and often will ultimately require replacement.
