While studying Architecture and building construction, Bill Kloppingwas introduced to sprayed urethane foam in 1970. FoamationIncorporated was formed in 1971 to pursue everything that could bedone with spray foam, especially freeform building construction.This business grew as an insulation contractor working in both theprivate and public sectors, completing projects for majorcorporations, state and federal agencies, and all branches of themilitary. The early focus of the business was the insulation ofcontrolled atmosphere, refrigerated storage buildings and laterprojects including large scale spray foam roofing.Projects were completed in the US, Europe, the USSR and in Taiwan.Specialized coatings were also offered and in 1982, we installed theglass fiber reinforced cement / acrylic roofing system on theGeodesic, House of the Future for the World Fair in Knoxville,Tennessee.In 1981, Therma-Froth Systems created an isocyanurate based, cavitywall insulation system. This product allowed the insulation ofexisting cavity wall construction with a high “R” foam and was widelyspecified in the public and military markets. This product was alsoused to produce foam cored window closure panels used in energyconservation projects for public schools and government buildings.Beyond Design Inc. was formed in 1995 with the goal of providingsprayed foam and coating to the theater and display markets. Inaddition, the production of molded surfaces and objects became part ofthe product mix. Over the years, many products and processes haveadded to our collective capability. We have evolved relationships withmany supplier R&D departments because of the demanding requirements ofmany projects.Our current work is heading back toward the Architectural markets andpre-fabricated construction, this time bringing everything we havelearned in the theater and display markets with us.
