Trade Grade 3mm Reflective Heat Insulation, 1.5m x 40m (60sqm)

3mm Reflective Heat Insulation

The Trade Grade 3mm Reflective Heat Insulation provides a high-performance thermal barrier for residential and industrial roofing projects. This double-sided aluminum foil material utilizes a polyethylene foam core to block radiant heat transfer and manage internal building temperatures. It serves as a critical component in modern climate control for steel-framed and timber-framed structures.

Built for the Job

This insulation roll is designed for rapid deployment across large roof surface areas. Contractors select the 3mm foam variant because it offers a balance between thermal resistance and ease of handling in tight attic spaces or high-pitched rafters. The material acts as both a heat shield and a secondary moisture barrier, preventing condensation drips that often occur under metal roofing sheets during temperature shifts. It is frequently specified for warehouses, poultry houses, and residential homes to reduce cooling costs.

• Installation under IBR, corrugated, or clay tile roofing systems.

• Application in wall cavities to prevent thermal bridging in steel buildings.

• Use as a vapor barrier in climate-controlled storage facilities.

Product Highlights

High Reflectivity Rating

The outer aluminum layers reflect up to 97% of radiant heat, significantly lowering the solar gain through the roof deck.

Closed-Cell Foam Core

• Provides a consistent thermal break to stop conductive heat flow.
• Resists moisture absorption and prevents the growth of mold or fungi.
• Offers minor acoustic dampening to reduce rain noise on metal sheets.

Technical Specifications

What’s Included

• 1 x 60sqm Roll of 3mm Thermal Insulation (1.5m Width)

On-Site & Workshop Notes

• Ensure a minimum overlap of 50mm at all joints to maintain the integrity of the vapor barrier.

• Seal all seams with high-tack reinforced aluminum foil tape for maximum thermal efficiency.

• Store rolls upright in a dry area to prevent edge damage or compression of the foam core before use.

• Avoid direct contact with wet concrete or highly alkaline cleaning agents to prevent foil oxidation.
