REFLECTIVE INSULATION & RADIANT BARRIERS

Silver Shield™

Go To Product Details Page

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

HY-Fi is a cutting edge hybrid insulation product that provides a very cost-effective approach to creating high R-value walls. The HY-Fi hybrid insulation system combines low emittance surfaces and enclosed air spaces. When used in combination with traditional insulation, such as fiberglass batts or spray foam, it creates a superior insulating system at an unmatched price point. HY-Fi is an especially attractive solution in areas with stringent building codes as it provides insulators and builders with a versatile, low cost, and easy to install hybrid system that achieves R-21 in small wall spaces.

VR Plus Shield™

Go To Product Details Page

VR Plus Shield is a multi-layer reflective insulation for use on furred-out masonry walls. This unique insulation has multiple layers that separate when installed to create three reflective air spaces, with R-values up to R-7.1 on 1.5” furring. VR Plus is available in both a standard, non-perforated version that functions as a vapor retarder, and Hi-Perm, a perforated version that allows vapor transmission depending on the design of the building envelope and climate zone requirements.  VR Plus is available with a staple tab for wood framing or with a tape tab for metal framing.

M-Shield™

Go To Product Details Page

An advanced insulation used on furred-out masonry walls, M-Shield™ is designed to resist mold growth by combining a synthetic polymer facing on premium grade aluminum foil. The synthetic polymers contain no cellulose and therefore reduce the risk of exposure to create safer and better air quality. When tested to ASTM standards, M-Shield™ exhibited zero growth of mold or mildew. Remarkably easy to install, Fi-Foil reflective insulation is one of the fastest growing technologies in the world—designed to get you more R-value for less, saving labor and material.

With third-party verified code compliance plus an industry leading 10-year transferrable warranty, in more humid climates, M-Shield™ is a smart choice to insulate all your masonry buildings.

AA2 Vapor Shield™
