Our story
Scot Foam Ltd was founded in 2017 by Barry Masterton while serving as a firefighter with the Scottish Fire and Rescue Service. The company emerged from a vision to provide a faster, more efficient, and eco-friendly way of insulating and protecting homes, businesses, and industrial spaces. Recognizing the potential of innovative insulation materials, Barry initially partnered with Icynene to bring their fully accredited, breathable spray foam to the Scottish market. Icynene has since become part of HBS (Huntsman Building Solutions), one of the biggest players in worldwide spray foam.
As one of the pioneering spray foam contractors in the country, Scot Foam Ltd has successfully collaborated with major contractors and global brands. This growing demand led us to expand our portfolio, and we now offer a comprehensive range of insulation services across residential, commercial, and agricultural sectors.
Our latest addition is the Cavity Wall Insulation using Energystore Superbead, enhancing our ability to provide top-tier thermal efficiency solutions to domestic and commercial masonry cavity walls. Additionally, we offer an A1 Fireclass rated wool fibre cavity wall system for commercial applications that may require the non-combustible rating.
We are proud to have a team of highly qualified insulation technicians. All our installers are third-party accredited with KIWA, hold manufacturers’ accreditation for all install types, and possess relevant NVQs. They are also trained in all aspects of installation and hold accreditations in Asbestos Awareness, Working at Height, and valid CSCS cards.
As a business, we are third-party verified and accredited by KIWA and the Insulation Assurance Authority (The IAA). We are also part of the government’s Trustmark accreditation scheme. With the combined staff and business certifications, we are the most certified and accredited insulation contractor/installer in Scotland.
Our commitment to customer satisfaction is reflected in our over 100 five-star reviews on Trustpilot, showcasing our dedication to quality and service excellence.
Operating across Scotland, Scot Foam Ltd is a part of the Scottish Government’s ‘Warmer Homes Scheme,’ where we contribute to insulating communities and implementing energy-efficient measures. Our services also extend to private projects, including retrofits, conversions, new builds, and funded work through Home Energy Scotland.
At Scot Foam Ltd, we are committed to delivering exceptional insulation solutions that meet the highest standards of quality and sustainability.

Our core services
Thermal insulation
Insulation is your properties year-round armour against the elements, preserving the internal temperature and reducing the need for increasingly expensive heating systems.
A critical component of all new builds, insulation is also one of the most important upgrades you can make to an existing property, whether that’s residential, commercial or industrial.
The airtightness of your insulation impacts every other energy-saving improvement you’ll tackle. Traditional insulation methods leave cracks and gaps in between cavities and these can all add up to significant heat loss. Spray foam avoids these problems as it rapidly expands to fill all spaces, leaving no room for air to escape.
Fireproofing
We have extensive experience in fireproofing buildings, having previously worked with the fire service in the UK. One of our core products (Icynene Classic Plus “O”) is a class 0 fire rated spray foam insulation that has also achieved a best in class surface spread of flame of class 1 (test range class 1 best to class 4 worst). Utilising a special intumescent coating, Icynene has achieved certification to BS EN 476 Part 6 & 7 in addition to achieving Class 0 in accordance with approved Documents B “Fire Safety” to the Building Regulations 2000.
This allows the application of Icynene Classic Plus “O” to areas and buildings that require a Class 0 fire rated product and Class 1 Surface Spread of flame such as concrete Soffits and floor slabs. It also allows for the foam to be left exposed in many types of residential, commercial, industrial and agricultural buildings without the need for additional fire retardant measures.
Soundproofing
A common advantage of our Icynene spray foams is the high levels of sound insulation. By thoroughly filling the spaces within walls, floors and roofs through which sound travels, we’re able to virtually eliminate airborne sounds such as music, telephones, conversations and all mid to high range frequency noise.
We regularly use Icynene foam for applications such as offices, recording studios, spas, doctors surgeries and other environments in which it is important to control sound levels.
It is also proven to reduce mechanical noise in industrial settings and can even help to silence noisy drains and pipes.
