Dow Leads PU Roofing Market with Superior Insulation
Published on 05/02/2025

Metal roofs with sprayed-on PU (Polyurethane) foam insulation, or "PU roofs," have currently become more popular due to their insulation properties that help reduce heat within buildings compared to traditional metal roofs. This results in lower energy cost from air conditioning and reduced noise during rainfall. Apart from exceptional heat insulation advantages, PU roofing, which has further developed from refrigerator insulation technology, is also lightweight and does not excessively burden the roof structure. Additionally, it is easy to install and aesthetically pleasing. However, while PU foams used in roofing may appear similar, the quality and insulation performance can vary greatly between manufacturers.
