ARBOFOAM
ARBOSeal Pro® Range
Arbofoam is a one-part expanding Polyurethane Foam in a pressurised aerosol can. It is CFC free. When applied it expands initially as it is being expelled from the can and further expansion takes place during cure by absorption of moisture vapour from the atmosphere and substrate surface.
Arbofoam will expand up to 40 times its original volume after application. Cured Arbofoam has excellent adhesion to concrete and plaster, brick, cement, wood, many metals and plastics.

Excellent adhesion to concrete and plaster, brick, cement, wood, many metals and plastics
Application Instructions
Joint preparation
The joint surfaces must be clean and free from contamination. Apply a fine mist of clean water by spray into the gap prior to application to assist with the expansion and cure of the foam.
Application
Follow user instructions on the can.
All joint preparation, priming, and sealant application should be carried out in accordance with BS 8000 – 16: 1997 +A1:2010: the British Standard for the sealing of joints in buildings using sealants.
