Where To Use Anti-Condensation Spray Foam
Nexseal LE Closed Cell Spray Foam can be used in a multitude of environments. During autumn and winter months, many metal, asbestos or cement fibre roofs tend to condensate due to the external cooler temperature versus the warmer internal temperature. A 20-25mm layer of Nexseal LE is usually more than sufficient to eliminate condensation.
Shipping Containers
An increasingly popular space for storage, shipping containers will almost certainly condensate during colder months, especially if there is any form of heat source within. The corrugated nature of the shipping container can make it difficult to insulate with traditional materials and condensation will almost certainly continue to form behind any insulation. With spray foam insulation, it bonds to the surface and follows the corrugates to ensure total coverage.
Warehouses & Industrial Buildings
If you have a warehouse or industrial building with a corrugated roof and you’re suffering condensation, Closed Cell Spray Foam Insulation is your solution. The strong adhesion of the foam to the substrate coupled with the seamless layer that follows the corrugates will lead to the total elimination of surface condensation. The bond of the foam and its high tensile strength can help to add structural stability to the roof and prevent its degradation.
Agricultural Barns
Traditionally cement fibre, asbestos or metal corrugated roofs and walls, agricultural barns are often subject to condensation forming during winter months, especially when livestock are inside. This can create an inhabitable environment for livestock and damage any other stock, plant or machinery within the building. A 20-25mm layer of Closed Cell Spray Foam Insulation will resolve any condensation issues for the life of the building, guaranteed for 25 years.

Check out our Gallery where you will find some photographs of installations we’ve completed in the past. Whilst spray foam is insulation and not decoration, our experienced installation teams will always endeavour to provide a neat and tidy finish to the insulation. Nexseal LE closed cell is easier to achieve a neater finish whereas Sucraseal Open Cell expands at a faster rate to leave an undulated finish.
FAQs
Pre-manufactured insulation materials need fixing into place and generally won’t follow the undulation of the corrugate. This can leave cold pockets behind the insulation and unless the materials used are airtight, warm air from inside the building could still escape through the insulation and cause condensation pockets. The closed cell spray foam will bond to the corrugated surface and provide a seamless layer of thermal performance that will completely eliminate surface condensation.
Yes, ideally. Firstly, we need as much floor space as possible to navigate a scaffold tower or cherry picker and secondly, there is often overspray particles that will fall from the roof during the spraying process and these particles can stick to machinery, stock and belongings inside. Whilst we will make every effort to cover items with protective sheeting, we cannot guarantee we won’t get overspray on items, therefore, where possible, its just best to empty the building. Due to health and safety regulations, we definitely can’t have the general public or employees in the building at the time unless they are in another zone.
Yes, typically it’s 4-5 times quicker than fitting pre-manufactured materials which can have a massive impact on how quickly you can use the building again. For businesses who rely on the space they are insulating, we can typically complete around 200-250m2 per day and for larger projects we can increase the number of installers on site to speed up the process. For most projects, we are generally in and out within a few days, leaving you fully insulated and your surface condensation issues resolved.
Our ThermoFoam Nexseal Closed Cell has been tested extensively with the BBA to ensure its suitability for bond strength, water vapour permeability and thermal conductivity. We’d always recommend using closed cell insulation to cement fibre, asbestos and metal surfaces due to its cohesive strength. Whilst some of our competitors may promote the use of open cell foam in these scenarios, it essentially has the density of a sponge, offers no structural stability and has a generally poor cohesion which could fail over time. Although we have our own ThermoFoam Sucraseal Open Cell Foam, we wouldn’t recommend its use direct to a corrugated surface
We don’t guarantee it against leaks. The negative pressure of the water from above will always find a way to penetrate through the smallest of crevices. The closed cell spray foam will, however, bond the roof sheets and any fixings which means if they are all in place before we spray, the foam will help to retain that structural stability. In high winds or stormy weather, the roof sheets are less susceptible to be damaged by wind and this should provide less tension on the fixings which means the roof will last for much longer as a result.
Our Nexseal LE achieves a British Class 1 surface spread of flame which is generally accepted by property insurers. The fire risk of spray foam insulation is very low provided there are no ignition sources within 500mm.
