OEM-HVAC 35 years of component foam expertise for HVAC manufacturers Armacell elastomeric foams provide superior insulation for HVAC equipment and systems, including the component foam required for the completed manufacture of various types of HVAC equipment, such as air handlers. Armacell’s EnsoLite® component foam materials are widely used by HVAC manufacturers. Ensolite EF0 semi-open-cell soft foams and SF0 semi-closed-cell foams are extremely conformable, which makes them perfect for use inside air handlers or around chillers. Proper application of these materials enhances the efficiency of HVAC equipment while protecting surrounding spaces from noise and mechanical vibration. Armacell products are tested to applicable flame-resistance standards and meet an HVAC manufacturers’ specifications. Like all Armacell products, our component foam is fiber-free and easier to maintain than particulating or fibrous insulation materials. Attributes: Insulation – energy savings Flame resistance Fiber-free Sound isolation Check our Product Selector Tool to find products that meet your requirements.

Structural Foam Cores The lightweight core foams for strong structures Manufacturers that seek to compete globally in the medium and long term have to be open to new market opportunities and new materials. Armacell’s PET foams for composite applications are a material solution that might just give your products the competitive edge. Our rigid, engineered ArmaForm® structural foam is a lightweight core foam that is ideal for such weight-sensitive products as wind turbine blades. PET (Polyethylene-Terephthalate) is widely known and familiar to consumers in the form of PET bottles. Yet this is only one area of application for this lightweight recyclable thermoplast. PET foam has many more possibilities as a core material. It is a potential alternative to PVC, SAN, and PMI foams, as well as balsa and honeycombs. Like these more well-known materials, PET foam board has an impressive ratio of density to stability. It is lightweight and flexible, yet stable. It also offers excellent compressive strength and temperature resistance. Applications: Wind Energy Building & Construction Transport Marine General Industry For more information on PET structural foam, please visit our Core Foams website .
Solar High-temperature, closed-cell foam insulation for solar hot-water lines Armacell makes UT SolaFlex tube and roll insulation for high-temperature, UV-resistant and oil-resistant applications. The UL listed, flexible EPDM thermal insulation material is ideal for solar-panel installations with metal pipe or tubing that carries hot water.

It remains flexible at temperature up to +300°F (+150°C) for long life and dependable service -- with intermittent exposure to +350°F (+175°C). Fiber-free Flexible, closed-cell elastomeric insulation Protection against condensation, mold, energy loss Suitable for high-temperature applications (+300°F) Check our Product Selector Tool to find products that meet your high temperature insulation requirements.
Component Foam Construction Foam components used in the manufacture of construction materials and products When it comes to the construction industry, Armacell foam products are used for more than just insulation. Our component-foam division makes elastomeric and polyolefin material in sheets, rolls and buns (blocks) that is used in many construction applications and in the manufacture of various construction materials and products. We supply Monarch® and OleTex® materials for vibration isolation and dampening to prevent unwanted noise or loosening of equipment. Monarch foams are also excellent for joint seals or closure strips. Our foam products offer durability, excellent weathering, ozone resistance and heat resistance. ArmaComfort® MTD acoustical tape is a revolutionary new mechanical and thermal decoupling tape that’s fast and easy to install! Applying MTD tape directly to the stud in place of resilient channel or isolation clips, dramatically reduces pass through noise, making a quieter, more comfortable space. FillPro® Backer Rod products offer a range of joint filling backer rods for construction applications. Closed- or open-cell, firm or comformable, there are FillPro rods for every joint and sealant. Applications: Vibration isolation and dampening Expansion joints Joint seals Closure strips Check our Product Selector Tool to find products that meet your requirements.
