From half a shed to finishing the whole thing! 🚜

This Perthshire farm originally had just half of the shed sprayed with 25mm closed cell spray foam, helping to prevent condensation in the area used for grain storage.

Fast forward a few years and the farm has expanded, so the whole shed is now needed for storage, so we were asked back to complete the job!

If you're wondering why the older foam looks darker... don’t worry, it hasn’t stopped working!

Like many of us this summer, it’s caught the sun ☀️ Exposure to UV light can cause spray foam to change colour over time. We like to call it foam sunburn! 🥵

It's completely normal and purely aesthetic, with no impact on the foam’s performance or effectiveness.

Our 25mm closed cell spray foam is the ideal solution for helping prevent condensation in agricultural sheds, workshops and containers.

Did you know? 👀

We offer a 25-year manufacturer's guarantee on all our spray foam insulation installs.

Now, we know what you're thinking… that's a long time. What if ScotFoam isn't trading in 10, 15 or 20 years?

Here's the thing, our guarantee is backed by the material manufacturer. This means your protection doesn't depend solely on us. If ScotFoam were ever to cease trading (hopefully not 🤞), your guarantee would still be honoured by the world's largest spray foam manufacturer.

So when you choose ScotFoam, you get two layers of security: a trusted, fully-certified installer on the ground and a global manufacturer standing behind the product for the long term.

That's proper peace of mind 🏠

Ever wondered what makes a good spray foam install? 🤔

Well we're here to clear it up. A good install should improve energy efficiency and thermal performance without creating hidden risks further down the line.

Here's the signs of a job well done:

✔ Even, consistent coverage across the entire area
✔ Roof ventilation is carefully considered: not accidentally blocked or sealed off
✔ Only applied to dry, sound timbers (never over hidden issues)
✔ Correct foam type selected for the specific property
✔ Clean, continuous finish with no gaps, voids or weak spots
✔ Full documentation, product info and certified installation details provided
✔ A proper explanation of moisture, airflow and suitability (not just potential energy savings)

⚠️ If no one talks about ventilation, condensation, or timber condition before spraying… that’s worth questioning.

🚜 Farmers, have you ever considered spray foam insulation for your buildings?

This week, we've been busy insulating an agricultural crop shed with 150mm of open-cell spray foam as it's converted into a cold store.

The result? Better temperature control, more efficient refrigeration and lower energy costs, helping the farmer keep produce at the right temperature without the refrigeration units working overtime.

Is your home roasting this summer? 🥵🏠

You’re not imagining it. A lot of homes across Scotland are struggling with overheating during these warmer spells, just like they struggle to stay warm in winter.

More often than not, the issue comes down to one thing. Insufficient or poor insulation.

When a property isn’t insulated properly, it doesn’t just lose heat in winter. It also lets heat build up and linger in summer, meaning your home ends up feeling uncomfortable all year round.

That’s where a lot of misconceptions around spray foam come in.

Many people don’t realise that open cell spray foam is 100 percent breathable. It allows your home to naturally regulate moisture by letting vapour move through the structure, rather than trapping it. This reduces the risk of damp, condensation, and timber issues like rot.

The confusion usually comes from closed cell systems, which are designed to stop air and water movement entirely. These are specialist products used in industrial applications, not standard domestic insulation.

At Scot Foam, we use the right system for your building type, ensuring your property's insulation performs. After all, good insulation is about keeping your home comfortable all year round 😎

Repeat after Barry: “Not every foam is the same.” 🙂‍↕️

There are distinct differences between open and closed cell spray foam insulation. They aren't interchangeable, and each type is designed to solve a different set of structural challenges, from managing moisture in homes to providing rigidity in agricultural and commercial spaces.

Here's a simple breakdown:

Open Cell

✅ Ideal for residential properties
✅ Breathable
✅ Protects your timber roof

Closed Cell

✅ Ideal for agricultural and commercial properties
✅ Suitable for steel or corrugated roof linings

“How do you know if it’s closed or open cell foam?” 🤔

This is a question we see popping up a lot online. Many property owners know they have spray foam insulation installed, but they aren't quite sure which type it is or how to actually tell the difference between the types available.

Luckily, there’s a really simple way to find out if you have closed or open cell foam insulation, and Barry is here to show you exactly how it's done.

Have you ever tried the "10-year-old" test? 👇 Watch the clip to see this straightforward trick in action!

As certified installers, the Scot Foam team is always here to help you get the best performance out of your insulation for a comfortable temperature all year round.

If you're building a new home, have you thought about the insulation you'll use? 🏠

Open-cell spray foam could be the perfect option for you. It is a fully breathable insulation that expands to create a seamless thermal blanket while still allowing moisture vapour to safely pass through. This helps to keep your timber frame healthy, dry, and rot-free.

🗑️ Less Waste: We only use the exact amount needed for your property, meaning there are no offcuts or leftover materials to dispose of.

⏩ Quicker Install: On average, we can insulate a space up to 5x faster than traditional rigid board installation.

✅ Airtight Compliant: Spray foam creates one continuous thermal layer that helps prevent unwanted air leakage and improves overall energy performance.

Building a home is one of the biggest investments you will ever make, so choosing the right insulation matters. The right system can improve comfort, reduce energy costs, and help protect your property for years to come.
