Raising the bar for polyiso

By The Coffee Shops™.  

A closer look at the genius behind the ImpactR-7™, a sustainable and hardy polyiso solution for the modern roof.   

Proper insulation is vital to completing a proper roofing installation, and many contractors turn to polyiso insulation panels as their go-to solution. In particular, looking at polyiso, contractors must keep in mind the best value and function that a product option provides; the higher the thermal value (R), the better. To provide contractors with a strong, reliable product, Versico Roofing Systems has introduced the ImpactR-7™, marking a leap in innovation and ingenuity.  

To discuss the features of ImpactR-7, Aparna Jaggi, innovation manager for Versico, joined Karen Edwards in an episode of Roofing Road Trips®. Tasked with bringing the next generation of revolutionary products to the market, Aparna is passionate about the benefits of polyiso solutions, and what the brand’s ImpactR-7 means for the industry. 

ImpactR-7 is the next generation polyiso board from Versico, offering next-level protection in a more sustainable way. The closed-cell polyisocyanurate insulation panels are designed to deliver the highest thermal value – R-7 per inch – which is a major jump from the standard polyiso product many contractors are used to, which typically yield around R-5 or R-6. 

Aparna shared, “It has the highest R-value per inch polyiso board that exists on the market. No one else has it. We even took home awards at the International Roofing Expo (IRE) this year after we debuted the product, landing the award for Expert Choice, too.”  

A significant part of the innovation process that leads to breakthroughs like the ImpactR-7, as Aparna explains, is thinking outside the box and striving to look beyond the limitations of what came before. “With the increasing regulations on building codes, larger quantities and values of insulation being necessary and even height restrictions, we knew there was a significant need in the market for a product that offered a higher R-value per inch. A bigger bang for your buck.”  

With a laser focus on innovating and engineering, there’s now a product available to bridge the gap that has existed on the market for years. Now, contractors look to Versico and the ImpactR-7 as a path toward a more efficient and sustainable tomorrow.
