Description

Alucushion

AluCushion is a reflective foil-and-bubble roof insulation product designed to reduce radiant heat and improve thermal comfort in homes and commercial buildings. Its multi-layered bubble structure traps thousands of pockets of still, dry air, slowing heat transfer and reducing both convection and conduction through the roof. This makes it an effective addition to roof insulation systems, especially in hot South African climates.
