1 Spray Foam Exceptional Products for Exceptional Design
2 About Celebrating over 40 years of Foam Since One of the oldest spray foam suppliers in the construction industry. Quik-Shield Insulation and Roofing Products Quik-Shield is the best choice in roofing and insulation. It is a spray-applied foam that can be used as an air sealing barrier and continuous insulation in commercial, industrial, and residential buildings. Quik-Shield spray foam creates a completely seamless air barrier that is energy-efficient, sustainable, and environmentally friendly. Quik-Shield Roofing System Quik-Shield Wall System believes in creating strong partnerships. Unlike commodity suppliers, SWD will work with you to develop best-result solutions based on your specific needs. manufactures a wide product line including over 45 polyurethane foams and polyurea coatings. Quik-Shield Roof Coating Quik-Shield Spray Foam Roof Deck Steel Studs Quik-Shield Spray Foam Masonry Veneer is an AIA/CES registered provider. We can provide a full range of educational presentations for your architectural or design firm. is a member of the U.S. Green Building Council. Quik-Shield spray foam is a LEED qualified material and counts towards LEED points. Quik-Shield closed-cell insulation carries GREENGUARD GOLD certification, the highest certification level. Our product development team is committed to leading the industry with innovative and top performing products that deliver outstanding results. International Offices Form vs Function Spray Foam insulation allows form and function to work together. The expansion of the spray-applied foam means that unique shapes and designs can still be effectively insulated.
3 A properly designed building envelope needs to provide the highest performance possible against four elements: rain, air, vapor, and heat. Closed-cell spray foam is the only product that can provide all four barriers in a single, seamless material. Designing a Better Building Envelope Fire rated assemblies Concrete separators can be completely covered by foam, reducing thermal bridging Quik-Shield spray foam is self flashing and provides seamless coverage around HVAC curbs, vents, and skylights. 97.6% No Ponding Quik-Shield spray foam roofing systems provide proper slope to drain, with minimal cost of material and labor. 82% of spray foam roofing systems do not leak at an average of 10 years 3 of Solar Energy Reflected away 4 40% Savings Quik-Shield Spray Foam can decrease a building's heating and cooling costs by as much as 40% 6 No Seams or Fasteners hourly fire rated assemblies are available for quik-shield wall and roof products Vapor Retarder More to consider than just r-value Two insulation attributes affect energy consumption: thermal (r-value) and air Barriers. Of these factors, the air barrier typically plays a more significant role. spray foam supplies both a seamless air barrier and one of the highest r-values on the market today. Quik-Shield closedcell spray foams are effective vapor retarders at an installed depth of 1.2 inches or greater 1 Seamless Air Barrier Open Cell foam is very good at absorbing sound and can be used in accoustical wall assemblies Extreme heat and cold reduce fiberglass R-value by 50% or more 2 Typically, a building envelope runs about 10-20% of the cost of the building, but represents 70% of the liability costs 5 1 sq ft of Quik-shield slab insulation has a compressive strength greater than 5 tons 1 Intertek Research Report # Oakridge National Laboratories 3 Del E. Webb School of Construction at Arizona State University 4 Cool Roof Rating Council (CRRC) 5 Associated General Contractors of America, American Bar Association 6 National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) Quik-Shield spray foam creates a seamless air barrier per ASTM E-283

It is sprayed directly to engineered fill gravel, prior to slab pour. Unlike boardstock, spray foam provides a seamless and monolithic layer of insulation. Quik-Shield slab foam seals completely around plumbing and other penetrations, creating a superior vapor and water resistive barrier. This 4,000 sq ft home utilized 3 of Quik-Shield spray foam beneath the slab. Quik-Shield slab insulation is also completely compatible with radiant floor heating systems.

5 Walls Quik-Shield closed-cell spray foam is the best choice when insulating and protecting commercial and residential buildings. It creates a completely seamless air barrier that is energy-efficient, sustainable, and environmentally friendly. Closed-cell spray foam is the only product that functions as all four building envelope barriers- air barrier, thermal insulation, vapor retarder, and water resistive barrier. In addition to saving on heating and cooling costs, money is saved during construction because no additional building envelope barriers are needed. Save up to 40% Heating and Cooling No Additional Building Envelope Barriers Needed Prevents Mold and Moisture Damage Continuous Insulation Energy Efficient Increases Structural Racking Strength Environmentally Friendly INTTERIOR GYPSUM BOARD STUD WALL CONSTRUCTION (WOOD, STEEL) EXTERIOR WALL SHEATHING QUIK-SHIELD CLOSED-CELL SPRAYED POLYURETHANE FOAM 3.5 MINIMUM DRAINED CAVITY (AIR SPACE) BETWEEN SPRAY FOAM INSULATION AND EXTERIOR FINISH Quik-Shield 112 STEEL STRUCTURE TRANSITION MEMBRANE MASONRY VENEER (BRICK, STONE) MASONRY TIE Note: Vapor barrier to be placed per local code requirements.

When EMIT made plans to build a new manufacturing facility in Sheridan for a new product line, closed-cell spray foam was the only insulation product they would consider. EMIT has seen the structural and energy advantages of spray foam and has insulated over a dozen of their other buildings with it. Quik-Shield 112 closed-cell spray foam was applied at a thickness of 3 to the interior of the walls of their newest location. When their other facilities used conventional insulation materials, EMIT experienced extremely high energy bills and problems with air leakage. Sheridan experiences winter temperature averages at 9 F and yearly sees about 72 of snow. The Quik-Shield spray foam helps maintain a comfortable working environment, lowers energy bills, and serves as a vapor barrier to help control moisture issues.

SPRAY PO L Fasteners and seams on Single-Ply roofs allow heat to transfer, wasting energy and money 2014CORRECT ROOFING SYSTEM This award-winning project included a 22,500 sq ft building expansion and the retrofit of the existing 68,000 sq ft warehouse facility roof. Quik-Shield lb roofing spray foam was applied, with acrylic and cementitious top coats. This roof was a low slope, B metal deck and was covered with 560 photovoltaic panels and 76 skylights. TOMAR had previously experienced a lot of problems with leaking, due to the inability of the previous roofing product to properly seal all of the seams and penetrations. Spray foam is seamless and self-flashing, which solved the building s issues with leaks. The Quik-Shield roofing system is incredibly energy efficient. The Quik-Shield air barrier and the high solar reflectance of the acrylic coating helped make TOMAR one of the few manufacturing facilities in the U.S. to achieve a near net-zero energy rating.
