How delivery works
We work with a nationwide network of trusted suppliers. Items in your basket may be supplied by different suppliers and delivered separately. Where this applies, you will see delivery charges shown at checkout for each part of your order. We always aim to group products from the same supplier to keep delivery costs as low as possible.
Delivery areas
Delivery charges apply to mainland UK, excluding: AB, CA, CF, DD, DG, EH, EX, FK, KA, KW, KY, IV, LA, LD, LL, ML, NP, PA, PH, PL, SA, SY, TR, TQ and TD.
If your address is in one of these areas, we will contact you before processing your order to confirm any additional costs. We do not currently offer delivery outside the UK mainland.
What to expect on delivery day
- Deliveries are typically kerbside.
- Please ensure someone is on-site to accept delivery. For heavier items, help with offloading may be required.
- Many building materials arrive on large vehicles. If access is restricted, a specialist vehicle such as a HIAB may be required and could incur an additional charge.
Why delivery can cost more than typical parcel delivery
Building materials often travel on larger vehicles and usually carry fewer drops per run than parcel networks. That is why delivery charges can be higher than standard e-commerce shipping.
Returns
Returns depend on what you have bought and whether there is anything wrong with it. For full details on eligibility, timeframes, and exclusions, please see our full policy.

Product Overview
Soudal Genius Gun Gap Filling Expanding Foam in a 500ml aerosol can is a one-component, self-expanding polyurethane foam formulated for high filling capacity and precision application. The product incorporates the patented Genius Gun system - an integrated, reusable adaptor for controlled dosing and enhanced handling comfort.
This expanding foam delivers a stable, thixotropic consistency that cures by moisture to form a dense, elastic structure with minimal shrinkage or post-expansion. It adheres firmly to most construction materials, including masonry, concrete, wood, and metal, excluding polyethylene (PE), polypropylene (PP), and polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE).
With a cured density of approximately 25 kg/m³, the foam provides robust thermal and acoustic insulation, achieving a sound reduction value of 58 dB and a thermal conductivity of 37 mW/m·K. Once fully cured, it withstands temperatures from –40 °C to +90 °C, or up to +120 °C for short exposure.
Soudal Genius Gun Gap Filling Expanding Foam 500ml is ideal for controlled cavity filling, sealing, and bonding where a stable, elastic joint is required. Its precise application ensures clean, professional results in static and non-static installations.
Features & Benefits
- Patented Genius Gun System: Integrated ergonomic trigger and dosing adaptor for accurate, one-handed control and reusability.
- High Filling Capacity: Expands efficiently to fill voids and gaps while maintaining dimensional stability.
- Controlled Expansion: Expands approximately 117 % during curing with less than 1 % post-expansion for precise results.
- Thermal and Acoustic Insulation: Provides a 37 mW/m·K insulation factor and 58 dB sound insulation for improved building efficiency.
- Elastic and Compressible Formula: Ensures flexibility and reliable bonding under variable joint movement.
- Fast Curing: Forms a skin in approximately 7 minutes and can be cut after 25 minutes (EN 17333-3).
- Excellent Adhesion: Bonds to most common construction substrates excluding PE, PP, and PTFE.
- Freon-Free Composition: Uses propellants that are not harmful to the ozone layer or greenhouse effect.
- Temperature Resistance: Withstands continuous temperatures from –40 °C to +90 °C and short-term exposure up to +120 °C.
- Can Size – 500 ml: Produces approximately 19 litres of cured foam, suitable for around 17 metres of joint filling.
Applications
- Cavity Filling: Expands to fill and seal internal voids and irregular openings.
- Pipe and Cable Insulation: Provides thermal and acoustic isolation around plumbing and electrical installations.
- Roof Construction Sealing: Closes penetrations and gaps to prevent air leakage.
- Joint Filling: Suitable for both static and non-static joints requiring an elastic seal.
- Thermal Isolation in Cooling Systems: Enhances energy efficiency and prevents condensation formation.
- Soundproofing Layer: Forms a dense, absorptive layer for improved acoustic insulation.
Installation Guidance
- Surface Preparation: Ensure surfaces are clean, dry, and free from dust or grease; moisten slightly with water to optimise adhesion.
- Can Handling: Shake the can vigorously for at least 20 seconds before use and periodically during application.
- Application Method: Attach and open the Genius Gun trigger, applying foam to fill cavities by one-third of their depth to allow for expansion.
- Layering: When filling deep voids, apply in successive layers, moistening between each to accelerate curing.
- Cleaning: Remove uncured foam immediately with Soudal Gun & Foam Cleaner or acetone; cured foam must be removed mechanically or with PU-Remover.
- Storage: After use, close the nozzle with the supplied bung, replace the cap, and store the can upright between +5 °C and +25 °C.
Compliance & Performance
- Material Composition: One-component moisture-curing polyurethane foam with CFC- and HCFC-free propellants.
- Performance Standards: Tested in accordance with EN 17333 and EN ISO 717-1 for curing time, expansion, and sound insulation.
- Curing Characteristics: Skin formation in 7 minutes; cutting time 25 minutes; shrinkage < 3 %; expansion < 1 % post-curing.
- Strength Properties: Compressive strength ≈ 38 kPa; shear strength ≈ 54 kPa after full cure.
- Shelf Life: 12 months in unopened, upright storage at +5 °C – +25 °C in dry conditions.
- Important Note: Product is not UV resistant and should be covered or protected in exposed applications; always wear gloves and goggles during use and ensure adequate ventilation.
