Ground Floors
Ground Floor Insulation with Metropolitan Insulation
In the Netherlands over 15,000 tonnes of polyurethane spray foam is used in the construction of ground floors to meet required U-values.
Here in the UK, Metropolitan Insulation Services’s spray applied polyurethane foam is applied directly to the base concrete, just before the screed is laid.
It creates a seamless, gap-free layer and the depth of foam required can be easily adjusted to ensure you meet respective U-value requirements.
Inherently strong, the polyurethane foam can withstand design loads.
| Foam Depth | U-value |
|---|---|
| 50mm | 0.22W/m2K |
| 60mm | 0.20W/m2K |
| 70mm | 016W/m2K |
Metropolitan Insulation Services’s spray foam solution can help you attain U-value and SAP ratings.
Concrete soffits
Besides ground floor applications, our polyurethane foam may be sprayed to the underside of concrete soffit ceilings – i.e. in car parks or underground garaging. The above- mentioned U-values may be achieved with minimal loss of ceiling height.
- Twice the insulation value of glass fibre
- Expands to seal all gaps and provides its own vapour control layer
- Offers strength and sound-insulation and cuts out unwanted air leakage
- Complete design and installation service available
- All materials manufactured to ISO 9002
- 10 – 25 year guarantees

Though lightweight (2 kg per m2 at 25 mm) our sprayed polyurethane foam is very rigid and enhances durability to any structure.
From an insulation point of view it is the most efficient, commercial insulator available. Not only offering fast 'pay back', it dramatically reduces heat loss.
