At Eco-Panels we use a closed cell foam. That is different than a normal SIP panel foams used by other companies. We use closed cell foam because it is denser.
More Details on the Close Cell Foam we use:
Popular spray foam products like Icynene or Insulstar are great products, make no mistake about it. But they have the same approximate R value per inch as fiberglass bat insulation (3.2-3.6). What these open cell petroleum based spray foams do very well is seal voids and cracks.
The foam inside of our panels is a closed cell foam – if you cut across it and pour water over it the water will literally bead off of the foam. It has a nominal R value of 7 per inch and because we do not have splines or other members cutting across the length of the panel (except for framing of windows and doors) there is no thermal wick to bring energy in from the outside. Because the panel is entirely filled with foam there is no opportunity for air penetration or circulation within the wall cavity – a VERY important concept, and our closed cell foam has significant structural strength – open celled foam products do not.
