Advantages

Why PU Foam?

Polyurethane (PUR)

Rigid Foam Sheets & Pipe Sections · 32–80 kg/m³
Manufactured by reacting a Polyol with a Di/Poly-Isocyanate. The closed-cell matrix resists moisture and water infiltration, maintaining high thermal and structural performance over time.
  • Excellent thermal performance
  • High compressive strength
  • Moisture and water resistant
  • Lightweight, easy to install
  • Compatible with metal facings
  • No sagging long-term
  • CNC-cut to any 2D shape
  • <24hr turnaround CT

Polyisocyanurate (PIR / PIC)

Sheets & Pipe Sections · 32 kg/m³
PIR/PIC foam offers superior fire resistance vs standard PU. The closed cellular matrix provides excellent compressive strength.
  • Superior fire performance
  • High thermal efficiency
  • Excellent compressive strength
  • Closed-cell, moisture resistant
  • Available as pipe sections
  • Cut to spec same day

Sandwich Panels

PUR/PIR Core with Metal Facings
Rigid polyurethane foam core with profiled metal facings. Particularly suited for roofing and wall applications in industrial halls and cold-storage units.

Block Foam

Custom Shapes for Sculpting, Moulding & Industrial Use

What is Hydroponics?

Soil-Free
Plant Growing

Hydroponics is growing plants in a water-based, nutrient-rich solution. The root system is supported using an inert medium such as Rockwool. 6 basic system types:

Wick
Passive, simple
Water Culture
Roots in solution
Ebb & Flow
Flood & drain
Drip
Recovery / non-recovery
N.F.T.
Nutrient Film
Aeroponic
Root mist system
Why Rockwool for Hydroponics?
  • Inert — does not interfere with nutrient solution
  • Sterile — no harmful bacteria or fungi
  • Excellent water retention and air porosity balance
  • Supports root systems across all 6 hydroponic types
  • Aerothane offers custom sizes not available elsewhere
  • Competitive pricing — South Africa's largest importer

How It Works

Application Methods

01

Two-Component System

Components meet at the spray gun tip, reacting to form expanding foam that bonds to the substrate instantly.

02

Spray Application

Foam sprayed directly onto roof tiles, concrete slabs, wall cavities — or through holes drilled into a finished cavity wall.

03

Hand Pour Method

Components mixed and applied by hand — no spray gun required. Ideal for smaller applications and DIY.

04

Cures In Place

Foam expands, fills all voids and cures to a rigid closed-cell structure creating a seamless barrier.

Benefits

What Spray Foam Delivers

Thermal Performance

Closed-cell spray foam has one of the highest R-values per inch. Fills all gaps and voids seamlessly — no cold bridging, no gaps around fixings.

Moisture & Mould Barrier

The closed-cell structure completely seals against water ingress. Eliminates the moisture that leads to mould and mildew — especially important in coastal South Africa.

Sound Barrier

Acts as a sound barrier to excessive noise. Widely used in residential and commercial noise control — especially in wall cavities between living spaces.

Structural Reinforcement

Rigid closed-cell foam adds structural rigidity to roofs and wall panels. Spray foam roof coatings can waterproof and insulate in a single application.
