Overview

COMPACFOAM GmbH is an Austrian company founded in 2007 that develops and produces the functional material COMPACFOAM, a lightweight construction and insulation material made from a single-grade raw material. The material combines high strength with excellent thermal insulation at very low weight, making it suitable both as a structural element and as a high-quality insulating material. According to the company, COMPACFOAM has established itself as a pioneer in high-performance insulation since its founding. The company operates a production area of 11,000 m² and maintains its own laboratories and testing facilities. Its product range includes standard boards, rods, profile bars and cubes, as well as custom-cut pieces made to customer specifications. The material can be processed with conventional woodworking machines — it can be screwed, drilled, sawn, thickness-calibrated and milled. Because of its ductile properties, it compensates for uneven substrates without damage, and it is resistant to moisture and frost, preventing swelling and shrinking. It is described as ageing-resistant, rot-resistant and non-decaying, as well as recyclable, single-grade, diffusion-open and biocide-free. The company offers material take-back and states that its products are listed with DGNB. COMPACFOAM is used in window construction, facade construction, metal construction, timber construction, yacht building, refrigeration technology, furniture construction, vehicle construction and sun shading. The company positions itself as a long-term partner from product development through practical application, with a team of experienced engineers supporting customers with dimensioning and mechanical calculations. What began as a small team with a big idea has, according to the company, become an internationally recognized partner for architects and engineers.
