Who they are
Carlisle Spray Foam Insulation sits inside Carlisle Weatherproofing Technologies and focuses on spray polyurethane foam systems for walls and roofs in residential and commercial builds. The lineup centers on SealTite PRO open‑cell and closed‑cell foams, plus roofing foams marketed historically as PremiSEAL and PremiR+.
What they sell, in plain English
Expect three main product families that specifiers actually buy: open‑cell SPF for interior cavities, closed‑cell SPF in HFO and HFC formulations, and higher‑density roofing SPF. Across those families, Carlisle lists multiple formulations such as High Yield, No Mix, No Trim 21, OCX, XTR, HFO closed‑cell, and branded roofing foams. That puts total individual SKUs comfortably in the dozens.
EPD coverage snapshot
Carlisle published a product‑specific, third‑party verified EPD covering its complete spray foam portfolio. The declaration lists open‑cell products, closed‑cell HFC and HFO variants, and roofing SPF made in Cartersville, Georgia, with a five‑year validity from December 1, 2022 to December 1, 2027 (UL Environment EPD, 2022) (UL Environment EPD, 2022). That single document means architects can specify most of Carlisle’s spray foams with clean paperwork.

Follow us for a product-by-product competitive analysis to understand which spray foam SKUs get spec'd, VE'd out, and how they stack against Huntsman and BASF.
How complete is “complete”
Coverage is strong across the core foam systems, including both blowing‑agent chemistries and the roofing grades called out in the EPD text (UL Environment EPD, 2022). Ancillary items like coatings or discontinued accessories sit outside the typical scope of SPF insulation EPDs, which is normal for the category.
Why this matters in specs
Many owners now weigh embodied‑carbon transparency alongside performance. When a foam lacks an EPD, project teams often default to conservative estimates that can push it out of contention. With a current, program‑operator EPD in hand, Carlisle’s foams avoid that penalty and stay credibly comparable on LEED v5‑aligned projects.
Competitive set and EPD context
Spray foam competitors likely to show up on the same bid lists include Huntsman Building Solutions, Johns Manville, BASF, SWD Urethane, and regional specialists. Huntsman provides a product‑specific EPD for its Heatlok HFO line, issued by UL and still within the typical 5‑year window through early 2026, so it is a viable EPD‑backed alternative on closed‑cell work (Huntsman Heatlok HFO EPD, 2021). BASF’s 2025 update for WALLTITE RSB highlights a manufacturer‑specific EPD as part of its sustainability claims, which signals more EPD‑active competition ahead (BASF, 2025).
Commercial read for product teams
If a portfolio is already mostly covered, the fastest wins come from two moves. First, keep the umbrella EPD current and aligned with the most common PCRs your competitors use. Second, identify any new formulations or plant changes that will need an addendum or refresh before the next selling season. The time saved avoiding last‑minute scramble is, frankly, huge.
Where to look on their site
Carlisle’s product pages call out EPD availability on specific formulations like SealTite PRO HFO and Open Cell High Yield, which makes submittal building straightforward (Carlisle product pages, 2025). For broader corporate goals and progress, see the company’s latest sustainability report summary, which frames the building‑envelope focus and targets (Carlisle 2024 Corporate Sustainability Report, 2025).
What we’d watch next
Foam chemistries and codes keep evolving, so keep an eye on HFO transitions, any new low‑VOC open‑cell lines, and refresh cycles for program‑operator rules. Also consider layering HPDs where customers ask for health transparency alongside carbon. Keeping these documents in lockstep is definately the easiest way to stay spec‑ready year round.
