Steve Jewell is a leading figure in the UK spray foam insulation industry and one of the country’s few remaining distributors after a sector-wide collapse. Starting his journey in 2012 through industrial coatings, Steve quickly recognised the potential of spray foam and built a nationwide contracting business from the ground up.
Through years of hands-on experience, he became a key voice in the industry, training contractors, supplying materials, and helping shape standards across the UK. At the peak, he was part of one of the fastest-growing construction sectors in the country.
But when negative press and misinformation triggered mortgage restrictions and public fear, the industry was nearly wiped out, dropping from around 80+ companies to fewer than 10. Instead of walking away, Steve stepped up, working with government bodies, certification boards, and competitors to fight back, rebuild trust, and restore an entire industry.
Today, he’s on the front line of that comeback—driving education, regulation, and innovation to bring spray foam back into the mainstream.
