What Does UFFI Stand For?

UFFI stands for Urea Formaldehyde Foam Insulation

UFFI, or Urea Formaldehyde Foam Insulation, is a type of insulation material made from a combination of urea, formaldehyde, and other additives. It is utilized for its excellent thermal performance and ability to reduce energy costs in residential and commercial buildings. UFFI is injected as a liquid and expands upon application, filling gaps and providing an effective barrier against heat loss. While it has been popular for its insulating properties, its use has declined due to concerns about formaldehyde emissions and potential health impacts. Proper installation and ventilation are crucial to ensure safety and effectiveness.
