A clean, non-toxic, easy to install, patented self-taping RADIANT BARRIERS that provides increased comfort, energy efficiency and savings, and lower heating and cooling costs.
REFLECTS HEAT
MicroFoil effectively reflects a heat source as opposed to absorbing and dissipating it as fiberglass insulations must do. This reflectivity works both ways: radiating summer heat outward and retaining winter heat inside.
EASY TO USE (New Patented Self-Taping)
Because MicroFoil is made with plies of MICROFOAM (an extremely low-density, flexible polypropylene foam), it is much lighter weight and easier to handle than other reflective or fiberglass insulation products.
SMOOTH FINISHED SURFACES
MicroFoil will provide equal or better insulation properties when compared to much thicker 2"-3" fiberglass insulation, but will not produce an "oilcan" effect like thicker insulation can, due to the nominal thickness of MicroFoil.
PRACTICALLY ELIMINATES
Bird and insect infestation.
CONDENSATION CONTROL
When installed correctly, MicroFoil provides an excellent thermal and vapor barrier, greatly reducing condensation buildup.
SIMPLE, SAFE INSTALLATION
MicroFoil requires only a pair of scissors or utility knife and a staple gun. It does not require masks or long clothing for installation.
MicroFoil rolls are available with foil on both sides, or with foil on one side and fire retardant white polypropylene backed foil on the other side. Rolls come in 48" or 72" widths.
