Radon is a radioactive gas that comes from the breakdown of uranium in soil and rock. In enclosed spaces such as your home, it can enter through your basement and accumulate to high levels. This could become a high risk to the health and safety of your family.
WALLTITE CM01 is the only spray foam that has been tested by the Canadian Construction Material Centre (CCMC). It is an effective barrier against radon into your home when applied under the concrete slab.
WALLTITE CM01 is ideal for new home builds. Ask your builder about using WALLTITE spray foam as a radon barrier.
The HP+ Wall System - XR Series is designed to deliver a new way to build affordable and high-performance homes - whether you want to achieve Net Zero, Net Zero Ready or just have a better built home. Beyond the durability that the system provides. It also controls heat, air and moisture allowing homeowners to enjoy the benefits of improved indoor air quality and lower energy use.
BASF's HP+ Wall System provides high-performance and easy-to-build assemblies that combine proven BASF products into a layered system. It's a new way to build homes and buildings, one that increases the durability and longevity of a house and makes economic sense for both builders and owners.

BASF’s WALLTITE is a closed-cell,
spray-applied, polyurethane foam insulation that delivers high
thermal resistance to improve the energy efficiency, cost
savings and comfort of your home. WALLTITE
adheres perfectly to almost every space and material to
deliver a gap-free and airtight building envelope. Our
technology reduces air leakage and the passage of moisture to
decrease the risk of condensation and mould making it ideal
for attics.

BASF and Great Northern Insulation teamed up to support affordable homeownership. Together they provided product and labour for two homes being built by Habitat for Humanity in London, Ontario.
Elastopor LF series of polyurethane foam systems is designed
for concrete lifting and leveling. The portfolio offers a
variety of density options from 2 to 6 lb/ft3 and is suited
for a variety of applications including residential, small
slab lifting, DOT, highway work, and heavy-duty foundation
repair. The product line includes hydro-insensitive systems.
These foam systems are formulated for fast reactivity
thereby
reducing time on the job site.

We asked our customers to help us recognize women who are making contributions to the spray foam industry. It was met with an enthusiastic response and over the next few weeks, we will be highlighting these women.
We are also excited to acknowledge women on our own BASF Construction team and share their stories.
Thank you to all the women who are redefining the roles in the construction industry.

With the goal of promoting energy efficient buildings, WALLTITE® has been used to meet the stringent energy performance requirements for a number of projects:
The Woodstock Tiny Homes Community is an initiative that aims to help bridge the housing gap for those experiencing homelessness in Woodstock, Ontario. The initiative provides urgently needed transitional housing that is insulated and safe, providing life-saving shelter for those in need until they can find a more permanent home. WALLTITE spray foam insulation was installed in the homes to provide added warmth and energy efficiency.
The Prince Albert (PA) Community Housing Society Inc’s mandate is to provide subsidized, affordable and transitional rental units for the Métis community. As part of their mandate, PA Housing Society constructed a 14 unit housing project. BASF’s HP+ Wall System – XR Series was selected to build efficient and affordable units.
How many engineering students does it take to rework an aging insulation system? The question may sound like the setup to a joke, but in lieu of a punchline, there’s a happy ending. The story involves five students, one spray foam insulation product, and hundreds of thousands of rare books that were saved by the students’ inventive approach to a serious condensation problem.
