REFLECTIVE INSULATION
TempShield™ Reflective Insulation Provides Multiple Benefits
TempShield™ insulation products consist of one or two layers of Barrier Bubble material laminated between layers of aluminum foil to provide excellent thermal resistance. The bubble contains an air retention layer designed to provide increased strength and puncture resistance.
Insulation is used to either contain heat for maintaining warmth, or to resist heat for maintaining cold. In many applications, radiation is the dominant mode of heat transfer. TempShield™ foil bubble is considerably more effective than conventional insulations in reducing radiant heat transfer.
TempShield™ foil bubble reflects up to 97% of radiant energy in addition to resisting other types of heat transfer thus providing effective insulation.
High-Efficiency Performance
Thin, lightweight material provides resistance against the three types of heat flow: conduction, convection and radiation. It forms an effective barrier against moisture, air currents and vapors, while resisting fungus, insects and nesting rodents.
Easy to Use
It’s lightweight, compact and pliable yet resistant to punctures, tears and cracking. Conforms easily to fit complex shapes. Installation is quick and simple.
Outstanding Safety, Health and Environmental Benefits
Clean, non-toxic, fire-retardant (Class A/Class 1) and made with 20% recycled plastic. No special clothing or protective equipment is necessary for handling or installation.
Cost-Effective and Versatile
An economical solution for a wide range of industrial, manufacturing and consumer applications.
Typical Applications for TempShield™ Reflective Insulation
- Original equipment manufacturers (OEM)
- Commercial and residential building
- Insulation for food and drug shipping
