Industry experts will give policymakers, staff, and media a firsthand look at how spray foam supports energy affordability and modern building performance for Minnesotans.
ST. PAUL, MN – The Spray Foam Coalition, alongside the Spray Polyurethane Foam Alliance, Spray Foam Worldwide and numerous MN based contractors, will spotlight the benefits of spray foam insulation and sealants during Spray Foam Day at the Minnesota Capitol on Thursday, April 23.
The event will convene manufacturers, distributors, contractors, policymakers, and legislative staff for an interactive showcase focused on how spray foam contributes to stronger building-envelope performance, lower energy use, improved resiliency, and long-term homeowner value rather than typical insulation.
Minnesota legislators can enact policies like tax credits and new standards tied to energy efficiency and building-code modernization, including specifically for unvented attic assemblies, to support the durability of homes and reduce utility costs.
“Spray Foam in the Minnesota Capitol Day is an opportunity to connect building science with public policy in a direct and tangible way,” said Stephen Wieroniey, President of the Spray Foam Coalition. “We want lawmakers to see how spray foam supports more affordable and efficient homes, stronger building performance, and practical solutions that benefit Minnesota families, businesses, and workers.”
Media will have the opportunity to gather background on how spray foam insulation fits into current conversations around home efficiency, affordability, and resilience.
