Do they already have a foam that replaces backer rod and sealant?

Which foam is it? I talked to a salesperson before the vacation who said the new one was on the way. It shouldn't expand as much as a regular one, and should be in a cartridge?

I will contact the Essve salesperson on Monday and check if it will be available soon.
