According to Justin Koscher, president of the Polyisocyanurate Insulation Manufacturers Association (PIMA), rooftops are crucial for energy efficiency and can benefit from polyisocyanurate insulation, highlighting opportunities for roofing contractors to improve building performance.

PIMA recently published new and updated technical and performance bulletins that help increase the building industry’s understanding of polyiso insulation, its applications and its benefits.

PIMA's expanded program now includes third-party verification of thermal resistance values (R-values) for full thickness products independently selected from distribution locations.

The growth in polyiso shipments reflects the upward trajectory of investments into more energy-efficient commercial and residential buildings.

A new study shows code-compliant levels of roof insulation installed entirely above deck as part of a roof replacement project can achieve energy reduction goals and cut carbon emissions.

The most current Polyiso Environmental Product Declarations (EPDs) for roof, wall and cover board products are now available on PIMA's website.

Industry association leaders assess how the third quarter of 2020 compares to previous quarters while examining issues plaguing the roofing industry in the near future.
