Applications

In early 2015, the product range of Finnfoam Oy was expanded to include FF-PIR polyurethane insulation products in addition to Finnfoam, FF-EPS, and the Tulppa wet room panels. This section provides information about the use of these products in different applications. The entire Finnfoam thermal insulation product range is suitable for use as frost insulation and for insulating floors, ceilings, and walls, as well as for various types of supplementary thermal insulation. As frost and floor insulation, Finnfoam is highly resistant to moisture, freezing, and load. After all, reliability is the most important property of frost insulation, and its insulating properties cannot be allowed to deteriorate over time. The freeze-thaw-resistance properties of frost insulation products should always be specified. 

FF-EPS is best suited for use as thermal insulation for walls and ceilings, where it provides a safe and highly cost-effective solution. It can also be used in floors that are not subjected to significant loads.

The applications of FF-PIR polyurethane insulation products include the thermal insulation of walls and ceilings as well as saunas. FF-PIR insulation products have a very high thermal insulation capacity, which allows for lower structural thickness.

The below table will also allow you to move directly to the desired application.
