Insulation Options for Commercial and Industrial Projects

Not all buildings are built the same—and neither is insulation. Whether you’re outfitting a storefront or a large facility, our solutions for walls and attics are designed to meet real performance needs and support long-term savings.

Explore the options below to see what fits your project best.

🧱 Wall Insulation Options

R-11 to R-49 depending on thickness

→ A cost-effective option for offices, retail spaces, and light commercial buildings. Works well in standard wall framing where quick installation is key.

R-15 to R-56 | 1.8–2.3 lbs/cubic ft.

→ Great for irregular cavities and hard-to-reach areas. Provides dense, even coverage—ideal for both commercial remodels and industrial applications requiring better thermal control.

Open-cell: Up to R-3.6 per inch | 0.4–0.6 lbs/cubic ft.

Closed-cell: Up to R-7 per inch | 1.7–2.3 lbs/cubic ft.

→ Our industrial spray foam insulation is the go-to solution for warehouses, plants, and spaces needing advanced air sealing, moisture control, and high R-value performance.

🏠 Attic & Overhead Insulation Options

Up to R-2.7 per inch

→ Lightweight and budget-friendly. Often used in accessible attic spaces across office buildings, storefronts, and similar structures.

Up to R-3.3 per inch

→ A denser material that offers higher R-values per inch. Helps dampen noise and works well in busy or high-traffic industrial buildings.

→ Sealing leaks around penetrations and framing improves insulation performance across the board. This is especially valuable in older commercial buildings or industrial sites with inconsistent airflow.

  • Improved Air Quality:

    Insulation helps seal gaps, reducing drafts and airborne pollutants, contributing to healthier indoor air quality.

  • Compliance with Energy Standards:

    Well-insulated buildings help meet local and national energy efficiency regulations, which can reduce operational costs and improve sustainability.

This company is the best. Our home posed many challenges as it is 148 years old with additions of unknown ages. Mike K. and his team faced each challenge with grace and got the job done to perfection. Even with a 70 lb puppy, Milly bringing him toys all day. I highly recommend them!
