Behind Wall Surfaces/in Exterior Foundations

Saving energy while improving indoor comfort and durability, these Dow Building Solutions products are used behind wall surfaces and on the exterior of foundations in multiple venues at the Games:

STYROFOAM™ Brand SM Insulation – foundations of the Vancouver Olympic & Paralympic Centre, the Whistler Olympic and Paralympic Park and The Whistler Sliding Centre
STYROFOAM™ Brand CAVITYMATE™ Ultra Insulation – in building walls at the Whistler Olympic and Paralympic Park
STYROFOAM™ Brand CT Insulation – on exterior foundation walls at the Whistler Olympic and Paralympic Park and The Whistler Sliding Centre

Taking Dow insulation science outdoors
As bobsleighers barrel down The Whistler Sliding Centre track at speeds exceeding 90 miles per hour, STYROFOAM™ Brand Spray Polyurethane Foam (SPF) Insulation (RS Series) and FROTH-PAK™ Foam Insulation on the exterior of the concrete sliding track will help maintain precise temperatures to optimize ice conditions.

One of the many ways Dow insulation products are helping bring out peak performance of 2010 Winter Games venues – and athletes.
