by AF 0816 f3 — August 21, 2009—Johns Manville (JM), a Berkshire Hathaway company and global building products manufacturer, has introduced JM Corbond III, a premium high-yield closed-cell spray foam insulation product that complements JM’s full line of Formaldehyde-free fiber glass building insulation.
This is a result of JM acquiring Corbond Corporation, a 26-year-old manufacturer of advanced spray foam insulation.
JM Corbond III, which is immediately available, is a spray-applied, medium-density closed-cell polyurethane foam plastic insulation that can be used alone or in hybrid systems with JM fiber glass to create custom insulation solutions for residential, commercial and industrial applications, says the company. JM Corbond III offers the highest yield of any closed-cell foam building insulation, providing 5,000 to 5,200 board feet of coverage per set. It also provides superior thermal, moisture and cold-temperature performance and dimensional stability. It sprays at 3 inches per pass, allowing for maximum productivity.
Corbond is now a wholly owned subsidiary of JM. Corbond employees will continue operating out of the company’s Belgrade, Montana, manufacturing facility, where JM plans to build a product demonstration and training facility.
