Product Brochure

Insulation is a critical feature of any home impacting overall comfort by helping maintain a uniform temperature
throughout the house. Owens Corning provides home builders and home buyers with a number of insulation
solutions to meet their needs.
Every home is different though. Factors such as architecture, climate and building codes combine to create a
wide variety of needs which demand an equally wide range of high-performance insulation solutions.
The FOAMULAR
®
Extruded Polystyrene (XPS) Insulation family of rigid foam board products is here to offer
these solutions. Together with EcoTouch
®
insulation and housewrap, FOAMULAR
®
insulation is an integral part
of Owens Corning

Wall Systems.
*See actual warranty for complete details, limitations and requirements.
**R-value means resistance to heat ow. The higher the R-value the greater the insulating power.
†As manufactured, Fiberglas insulation is resistant to mold growth. However, mold growth can occur on building
materials, including insulation, when it becomes contaminated with organic material and when water is present.
To avoid mold growth on Fiberglas™ insulation, remove any water that has accumulated and correct or repair the
source of the water as soon as possible. Insulation that has become wet should be inspected for evidence of residual
moisture and contamination, and any insulation that is contaminated should be promptly removed and replaced.
