What is Polyurethane Foam (PU)?

Polyurethane Foam is a chemical insulation material created by mixing two main components – Polyol (A) and Isocyanate (B). When combined, they expand to form a rigid, semi-rigid, or flexible foam, depending on the application.

In Rwanda, PU Foam is widely used as spray foam, foam sheets, pipe insulation, sealants, and adhesives because of its excellent thermal resistance, soundproofing, and durability.
