Insulate and stop condensation on steel and GRP hulls and superstructures — spray foam bonds where the surface flexes and curves. Installed UK-wide.
Steel and GRP hulls, deckheads and bulkheads sit in a relentlessly damp marine environment. Cold metal surfaces below the waterline and under the deck sweat heavily, dripping onto cabins, machinery and cargo, breeding corrosion, mould and that persistent damp-boat smell. Bare steel in particular condenses constantly, accelerating rust in the very structure that keeps a commercial vessel seaworthy.
Enverge closed-cell spray foam is sprayed directly to hull plating, deckheads and bulkheads, self-bonding as it cures and following every curve, frame and stiffener without joints or fixings. It insulates and forms a vapour-resistant barrier that keeps internal surfaces above dew point, so condensation stops forming on the steel or GRP and the structure stays dry from the inside out.
Operators get drier, warmer, quieter accommodation and machinery spaces, with hull and deckhead steel protected from sweating and the corrosion it drives. Thermal comfort improves, cargo and equipment are shielded from damp, and the vessel's structure is better preserved — all from one seamless, contour-following application suited to the demanding geometry of marine interiors.
Keeps steel hull and deckhead surfaces above dew point, stopping the sweating that drives marine rust.
Vapour-resistant layer ends dripping onto cabins, machinery and cargo in damp, enclosed vessel spaces.
Self-bonds to steel or GRP hulls, deckheads and bulkheads without joints, fixings or panel gaps.
Seamlessly coats curved plating, frames and stiffeners that rigid board insulation cannot fit around.
Sprayed layer dampens hull noise and vibration, improving comfort in cabins and machinery compartments.
Nexseal LE carries a 25-year manufacturer-backed product warranty.
Closed-cell foam follows curved and ribbed surfaces, sealing out condensation and insulating the structure completely.
Enverge Nexseal LE closed-cell foam is spray-applied to hull plating, deckheads and bulkheads, self-bonding on cure and conforming to curved steel or GRP without joints. The low-permeability layer holds internal surfaces above dew point, controlling the condensation that drives hull corrosion and damp, while following the complex frames and stiffeners typical of commercial marine interiors.

Steel hulls sweat: warm cabin air meets cold plate and condenses, corroding the vessel from the inside and soaking fit-outs. Closed-cell foam sprayed at 25–75 mm bonds directly to the hull and deckhead, following every curve, rivet and weld — surfaces rigid boards simply can't follow — and carries its own vapour barrier, so no separate membrane is needed.
Most narrowboats, widebeams and workboats are completed in one to two days. The foam adds rigidity, keeps condensation off the steel permanently, and is backed by a 25-year manufacturer product warranty.

Cold hull steel in a damp marine environment falls below dew point, so warm internal air condenses on it. Closed-cell foam insulates the plating and holds its surface above dew point, stopping the sweating that drips into spaces and drives corrosion.
Yes. Spray foam self-bonds to the substrate as it cures, adhering to steel or GRP hulls, deckheads and bulkheads alike. It follows curved plating and framing seamlessly, suiting the complex geometry of commercial marine interiors.
By keeping the steel above dew point and forming a vapour-resistant barrier, the foam controls the condensation that drives internal hull corrosion. Keeping plating dry from the inside helps preserve structure critical to a vessel's seaworthiness.
Yes. As well as insulating, the sprayed layer dampens hull noise and vibration, making cabins and machinery spaces warmer, drier and quieter — a noticeable improvement in comfort for crew working in commercial marine environments.
Yes. Nexseal LE closed-cell foam carries a 25-year manufacturer-backed product warranty, giving marine operators long-term confidence in the insulation and condensation control across the vessel.
Most vessels are sprayed in 1–2 days depending on size and access — far faster than batten-and-board methods.
Yes — closed-cell foam seals the steel so warm cabin air never reaches a cold surface, stopping the sweating that drives corrosion.
Typically 25–75 mm depending on the vessel and how it's used — specified after survey.
