O<<Whether or not a company has LEED ratings doesn't matter on the  
chemical make up of spray foam.  All spray foams that I know of  
(insert foot here) are petroleum based and have voc's as part of  
their make up.

Hi Sam,

Thanks for the clarification on the LEED rating system, and the info.  
on the poly foams.

I'd just as soon avoid anything with VOCs, so maybe the foam isn't  
for us after all.
