Higher R-value per inch means thinner assemblies. Polyiso delivers this performance in larger, lighter-weight boards and can be attached with fewer, more efficient fastener options that preserve the thermal integrity of your wall system.

About us
The Polyisocyanurate Insulation Manufacturers Association (PIMA) is the national trade association representing Polyiso insulation manufacturers and suppliers to the Polyiso industry. PIMA advances the use of Polyiso insulation and is one of the nation’s foremost industry advocates for energy-efficient practices and policies. In addition, PIMA has been recognized by both the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the Sustainable Building Industries Council for advocacy and products. About Polyiso Insulation Polyiso is a closed-cell, rigid foam board insulation used in roof and wall assemblies within commercial and residential buildings of all types. Because of its high thermal performance, it is the product of choice for energy-aware architects, specifiers, builders, building owners, contractors and consumers. As one of North America’s most widely used, most readily available and most cost-effective insulation products, Polyiso has been cited by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency for its responsible impact on the environment. Whether for roof or wall, polyiso offers: - The highest R-value per inch of any rigid foam board insulation - An exclusive third-party thermal performance certification - Outstanding installed cost advantages and economical cost per R-value - The ability to achieve today’s code required R-values while minimizing space, material and labor requirements without breaking the bank - Superior performance in fire tests - Ease of use and peace of mind, as Polyiso products are designed for use in an expansive assortment of tested, approved, and code-compliant application. - Polyiso is stable over a large temperature range (-100°F to +250°F) and can be used as a component in roof systems utilizing hot asphalt. - Polyiso has low density, good adhesion to facers, low water absorption and low vapor transmission - Polyiso is not affected by oil-based waterproofing compounds, insecticides or fertilizers when properly protected

How does specifying polyiso as the continuous insulation layer in a rainscreen increase your options for water management strategies? 1️⃣ Install polyiso with taped or sealed joints and you have a primary control layer that is impervious to water intrusion. 2️⃣ Install polyiso with untreated joints, a drainage plane, and supplemental control later (behind the Polyiso) allows any fugitive water to escape. Whether your strategy is to prevent or drain/dry water within your rainscreen assembly, see how polyiso can simplify your specifications: https://lnkd.in/greTD9F7 See more in our latest video, “How Does Polyiso Improve Rainscreen Performance?” https://lnkd.in/gnqNbVaS
