Recently it’s been very difficult to acquire polyiso rigid foam board. That is true especially in larger thickness. How have builders been responding to this shortage?

I think we respond by waiting longer for our orders to show up. Project scheduling has been quite a bit more challenging this year with all the screwy supply shortages we've been seeing all over. I have noticed that even the reclaimers have been having a hard time getting product. Crazy times.

Well, that explains why nobody's returning my calls trying to source polyiso for my house.... hope I can get some on before winter!
I spoke with a representative at Rockwool today. They also have a 6 month wait period. Wow!
