In 2004 URSA was officially born and since then it has not stopped expanding within Europe and overseas, launching innovative and award-winning insulation products.

For the past 70 years they have been offering excellent insulation materials while bettering the planet and the economy, a better future through building insulation. URSA insulation priorities as a company that is very close to their customer base. Insulation is one of the main contributors to maintaining a comfortable environment in a building all year round, enabling protection against the cold and heat. URSA has various products designed for each area allowing for a sustainable home/building.

Sustainability

URSA is at the forefront of sustainability and provides answers proven to work. URSA commit themselves to promoting and contributing to sustainable development and are active in all three pillars of sustainability. URSA high performing insulation products for the building sector offer enormous opportunities for energy and money savings and a drastic reduction in carbon dioxide emissions, while improving thermal and acoustic comfort.

Climate Change and Global Warming

Climate change is the most profound challenge of our time. Its effects are long lasting and so significant they even endanger humankind. Climate change is caused by increasing greenhouse gas emissions in the atmosphere as a result of high energy consumption, a great part of which can be easily prevented using thermal insulation. Thermal insulation offers great potential to reduce energy consumption in the biggest source of wasted energy – buildings. Less energy used means lower carbon dioxide emissions and a greener future. Energy efficiency in buildings thanks to thermal insulation offers huge potential to tackle climate change, improve energy security while reducing costs.

Products

URSA invests time and resources and uses state of the art technology to innovate and offer customers insulation solutions for buildings that work and last. One of the leading insulation companies in Europe. URSA core products, glass mineral wool and extruded polystyrene, cover all building applications in the areas of heat insulation and soundproofing.

Glass Mineral Wool

Glass mineral wool insulation is an insulator that is frequently used in the construction industry and piping industry. Mineral wool insulation is a poor thermal conductor, and it has excellent flame-resistant properties. Mineral wool insulation is also used as an acoustic dampener. Glass mineral wool insulation is used in buildings and structures for several reasons. First and foremost, mineral wool insulation does not conduct heat well. This is important when trying to keep a building warmer or cooler than the outside environment. Since fires are always a concern for buildings, the fact that mineral wool lacks flammability makes it an excellent option as an insulator. Also, glass mineral wool is an excellent acoustic dampener if noise is a concern when building a structure.

Extruded Polystyrene

Extruded Polystyrene is a high-performance insulation with a closed cell structure which makes it resistant to moisture. Extruded polystyrene is used to make a number of different products, including both household and industrial goods. Extremely resistant to moisture, Extruded Polystyrene is the perfect insulation material for inverted roofs. In addition, Extruded Polystyrene is an ideal insulation material for foundation walls. Moreover, Extruded Polystyrene is resistant to mould, lightweight and easy to apply without irritating the skin. Extruded Polystyrene is 100% recyclable as well.
