As a builder today, you face new challenges that didn't exist when conventional insulation was developed. Consumers are changing their purchasing decisions because they are aware that the choices they make will impact energy consumption, energy savings, and indoor environmental quality. They are also changing the way they think about insulation. New programs and incentives have been developed that reward homeowners who reduce their impact on energy reserves and our environment. As a result, they are looking for insulation and other building materials that will help them achieve a healthier and more energy efficient living environment.

Building Codes
The local building code official is responsible for approving construction materials and methods. Evaluating building products is a time-consuming process requiring vast technical expertise. Therefore, building departments and designers will usually rely on evaluation services that evaluate products' conformance with the building code. The evaluation services evaluate construction products and provide an evaluation report that can be used by building regulators, contractors, specifiers, architects, engineers, and anyone else with an interest in the building industry and construction. The evaluation services make these reports freely available to the public.

The evaluation report (NER-420) demonstrates Icynene®'s compliance with the ICC, IRC, IBC, BOCA, SBCCI, UBC and the International One and Two Family Dwelling Code. This evaluation is an ICC Evaluation Service legacy report. ICC-ES is a nonprofit, public-benefit corporation that does technical evaluations of building products, components, methods, and materials. The evaluation process culminates with the issuance of reports on code compliance, which are available upon request.
