At SWD, we produce high-performance insulations that have contributed to a greener environment since 1972. Our foam improves home energy efficiency, contributing to as much as a 40% improvement in heating and cooling1 costs, a pivotal component to significant CO2 (Carbon Dioxide) reductions, one of the most critical greenhouse gases linked to global warming. Additionally, SWD’s production of high-performance insulations with high recycled content, such as that from PET plastic bottles, all align with our rigorous corporate sustainability policies as a responsible producer.
