Scrim Foil
The product reflects heat away from buildings in warmer months and retains heat in cooler months, thus stabilizing temperatures. It can be used in walls, behind cladding, or under timber floors. Combining the product with glass wool, rock wool, or foam insulation, it becomes an excellent vapour barrier for airconditioning ducts, pipes, and vessels. The combination and composition of the product layers can be modified to suit specific customer needs for different applications.
Thermal Resistance
R-value measures the thermal resistance of heat transfer through the product. The higher the R-value, the less heat is transferred through the product and therefore exhibits greater insulation properties. This value is measured as a reciprocal of the rate of heat transfer in watts, through one square meter of structure, divided by the difference in temperature across the structure. It is expressed in watts per square meter Kelvin. A roofing system with Scrim Facing Insulation has an:
- R-value of between 1.45 and 1.6 (tested using standard ISO6946)
Storage Conditions
- Only remove the packaging shortly before the product is going to be applied.
- Do not expose to direct sunlight for extended periods of time before it is applied.
- Do not wet the product before application.
- Storage at relative humidity at temperatures between 18 to 25°C.
- Store upright with a shelf life of one year.
