Thermal Insulation
The new choice for insulation
Theremal Insulation is a new super-efficient thermal insulation product that delivers outstanding insulation protection. It's tested! It's approved! And it works!
People believe that a well-insulated wall has to be a thick wall. With Thermal Insulation, that is no longer the case.
Instead of relying on thick layers of insulation to absorb heat and slow down thermal transfer, Thermal Insulation has combined the physics of thermal reflective technology with the insulating power of a dense EPS foam core (similar to the foam coffee cup you have trusted for years) to produce unparalleled insulating performance.
FACT: A simple foam coffee cup (1/8" thick) drastically reduces the heat transfer of 150° hot coffee to your hand.
FACT: A simple foam coffee cup (1/8" thick) drastically reduces the heat tranfer of -40° ice cubes in your soda to your hand.

Thermal Insulation comes in 3 finishes
and standard thicknesses of
3/8", 5/8" and 1".

Thermal Insulation has a dense, flexible
waterproof foam core.

Have you ever seen foam
flex like this?

Independent laboratory tests proved that 5/8" of Thermal Insualtion
outperforms 6" of fibreglass insulation plus vapour barrier.

Notice how the 1" Thermal Insulation stops the cold from transferring through the wall better than 6" fiberglass insulation. (The darker color on the wall indicates a colder area and the lighter colored areas indicate a warmer area.)

Actions speak louder than words!
Thermal Insulation shows its performance right up again fiberglass...
These pictures clearly show that the Thermal Insulation virtually STOPS the flow of heat. In this case the roof shows that snow on the roof remains UNMELTED everywhere there was a STRIP of Thermal Insulation installed in the roof to insulate in the areas where ductwork was installed. The rest of the structure was insulated with fiberglass. The outisde roof shows that enough heat still went through the 10" OF FIBERGLASS and escaped to melt away the snow on the roof. Not so with Thermal Insulation - which even had to insulate against the heat coming DIRECTLY from the ductwork!

What makes Thermal Insulation Different?
Thermal Insulation reflects up to 97% of radiant heat energy. The Mylar reflective surface combined with polystyrene filler has an unheard of performance rating. It drastically reduces the 3 forms of heat transfer which are:
1. Conductive Heat Transfer - Transfer of heat passing through an object due to direct contact. An electric range surface burner transfers heat when a pan makes contact with the heating element, or the smooth top surface.
2. Convection Heat Transfer - Transfer of heat passing through air. Heat coming form a furnace register/vent.
3. Radiant Heat Transfer - Transfer of energy (not heat) that becomes heat once obsorbed by objects - (sunclight is radiant energy). Radiant heat energy accounts for 50 - 75% of building heat loss in the winter heating season and up to 93% of heat gain the the summer (resulting in higher air conditioning costs).

Thermal Insulation Applications
Thermal Insulation can be used for many applications:
• New construction and renovation.
• Residential, commercial and agricultural buildings.
• Interior and exterior.
• Wood frame, steel, and concrete structures.
• Most any insulating project.
Here are but a few applications where Thermal Insulation has proven particularly effective:
Ceilings
• Excellent for vaulted ceilings.
• Easy application for new construction - insulation and vapour barrier in one.
• Easy retro-fit - apply over existing ceiling - strap (optional) - sheetrock.
Floors
• Under concrete radiant heat slabs and other radiant floor systems.
• Concrete basement floors (below or as part of sub-floor).
• Under crawl spaces.
• Ideal for mini/mobile home floors.
Walls
• Achieve R20+ performance in a 2" x 4" wall.
• Outside - apply under siding, brick, stucco, steel, etc.
• Inside - apply over studs or existing walls (Eg. Lathe & Plaster) without messy tear-out.
• Basement walls - applied directly to concrete.
Attics
• Apply under trusses or on underside of rafters.
• A quick efficient way to insulate.
Roofs
• Apply above or below roof framing (wood or steel) - with steel, aluminum, even asphalt shingles.
Plumbing & Ductwork
• Covering ductwork (to avoid formation of condensation).
• Insulate water heaters, pipes under floors, pump houses, etc.
Other Applications
• Cold storage - cold rooms, walk-in freezers.
• Agricultural & industrial buildings - white ceilings with Thermal Insulation applying sheathing, white finish, vapour barrier & insulation in one application.
• Removable insulation panels / to block off rooms, insulate windows.
