Silver Shield™
Go To Product Details PageFi-Foil’s Silver Shield is an insulation cover sheet composed of multiple layers of low emittance (low-e) materials designed to significantly reduce radiant heat transfer. The inside layer is a metalized polymer, while the outside layer is reinforced aluminum foil kraft paper, bonded with a fire retardant adhesive. The layers expand when installed to form a reflective roofing heat shield to provide enhanced thermal performance and protect the low-e surface from the performance reducing effects of dust accumulation. Since metalized and foil-based aluminum products have a near zero water vapor permeance, foil roof insulation Silver Shield is perforated to allow water vapor transmission.
