Eco Friendly Siding Through Efficient Manufacturing

Fullback®V Siding Insulation Manufacturing

Manufacturing expanded polystyrene (EPS) insulation includes a combination of heat and pressure, utilizing clean technologies that minimize energy and water inputs used through closed loop energy recycling. No solid waste is created in production, and no generated waste goes to the landfill. During the production of EPS, all waste is fully captured and re-purposed.

From 2007 to 2009, Progressive Foam reduced their overall landfill waste by 47%. This was determined by completion of a Life Cycle Assessment (LCA).

It doesn't take long to repay the environment for the energy and carbon used to manufacture Fullback^®V siding insulation, due to it's energy efficiency and the natural resources it saves once installed on your home. When installed on a brand new home:

Insulated vinyl siding (vinyl siding with Fullback®V laminated behind) saves as much carbon as it takes to manufacture the insulating foam in 2.6 years or less! Insulated siding saves as much energy as it takes to manufacture the insulating foam in 50 days or less! These numbers are even more favorable when the eco friendly siding is installed on an older home.

Progressive Foam Technologies is committed to the responsible management of all water, electricity and other resources involved throughout our manufacturing processes. We are constantly continuing to improve our efficiencies and reduce our corporate carbon foot print by implementing eco friendly strategies. This not only helps us make a greener product, but it also ensures the long-term sustainability of our company and the environment.
