Polyurethane FoamView MSDS

Originally developed as a replacement for rubber, polyurethane dates back to the beginning of World War II. Today, polyurethanes can be found in virtually everything we touch, from footwear and clothes to upholstered furniture.

Polyurethane exists in a variety of forms including flexible foam, rigid foam, thermoplastic polyurethane and in coatings, adhesives, sealants and elastomers. EMERCOR products are made with rigid polyurethane foam, a high performance, energy efficient material used for the insulation of buildings.

Insulating Performance

As one of the most effective ways to cut fuel and construction costs, polyurethane used in building insulation delivers a structurally sound, yet lightweight building material solution.

Boasting one of the highest insulating values (R-values) per inch of all commercially available products on the market, polyurethane foams maximize efficiency, space usage and reduce heating and cooling costs by up to 50%.
