ICYNENE Classic (LD-C-50®) is the product that made the Icynene name synonymous with superior-quality spray foam insulation.

It has been used in thousands of residential and commercial projects since 1986, consistently outperforming traditional insulation types. Icynene Classic is a one-step performance material which both insulates and air seals a building for the lifetime of the structure. Icynene Classic is guaranteed to perform as specified for the life of the building.
  • Approved for commercial building types I, II, III, IV, and V construction
  • Light density, open-cell structure
  • R-Value = 3.7 per inch
  • Original Icynene formulation of 25+ years
  • Vapor permeable, supports bi-directional drying of assemblies
  • Not a food source for mold
  • Soft, flexible composition maintains an air seal even after seasonal expansion/contraction of building assembly
  • Air impermeable material resists convective heat and moisture flow
  • Suitable for interior cavity fill applications
  • Rejects bulk water
  • Lower cost compared to closed-cell products
  • Low global warming potential (GWP of 1)
  • Superior cold temperature adhesion to multiple substrates


Icynene Classic foam insulation is 100% water-blown meaning they use no synthetic blowing agents or ozone depleting substances. The reaction used to create these products generates Carbon Dioxide to expand the foam. Carbon Dioxide has the lowest Global Warming Potential (GWP of 1).

Protection against Extreme Weather Events Closed-cell spray foam like Icynene MD-C-200™ is approved as a flood resistant insulation material for coastal homes by the U.S. Federal Emergency Management Agency. This is critical for areas prone to hurricanes and flooding. For instance, Icynene MD-C-200™ spray foam can be used as a water-resistant barrier to help deflect moisture away during a hurricane or flooding.

ICYNENE’S COST-EFFECTIVE THERMAL BARRIER SOLUTION
The International Building Code (2006 IBC) requires the installation of an approved thermal barrier over all foam plastics (including spray foam insulation) separating the foam insulation from the interior space of the building. The IBC specifically lists 1/2" gypsum wallboard as an acceptable thermal barrier material. However, most recently new technology has emerged for more cost effective thermal barrier solutions such as a spray applied intumescent coating. Icynene has tested and qualified an intumescent coating, DC-315 as an approved spray applied thermal barrier over our open-cell LD-C-50® and closed-cell MD-C-200™. This provides architects, designers, and commercial building owners with a cost effective option for exposed applications such as acoustical ceiling plenums, exposed roof assemblies, and attics connected to habitable space. For immediate assistance on technical inquiries, contact Icynene at: 1-800-758-7325.

Icynene spray foam insulation can be installed in both new and existing buildings, and even in the most unusual designs. It adheres to wood and steel frames alike and is effective in any climate.

 
Designing without Compromise

Commercial design considerations come with very specific challenges that can’t be addressed with just any type of insulation. Intensive use, acoustic considerations, HVAC, and aesthetic qualities barely scratch the surface. What about concealed condensation, corrosion, moisture build-up, and inefficient heating and cooling systems?

Icynene® insulation products let you design without compromise. Ideal for both wood and steel-framed construction, Icynene delivers a perfect fit for any shaped cavity. Unlike batts, Icynene conforms to unusual geometry and provides a continuous, protective barrier that significantly reduces air leakage, minimizes airborne moisture transfer, and optimizes energy efficiency.

Icynene spray foam is sprayed into walls, ceilings, and floors, then expands up to100 times its initial volume and cures within seconds. Icynene’s Light Density products remain soft and flexible enough to move with the building substrate, leaving no gaps or seams that can compromise air-tightness.

An insulation material that fails to control air leakage will be inadequate in resolving the associated health and economic concerns. Thermal performance, air quality, energy consumption, sound attenuation, and building durability are all negatively affected by uncontrolled air leakage. Integrating Icynene as part of a sustainable design strategy has proven to be an effective tool that allows design professionals to provide their clients with the advantage that comes from a controlled environment.
