Reflex Insulation ThermalFlex™ Thermal Insulation
This premium range of insulation products can be used for wall and ceiling insulation and offers the following advantages.
- Highly reflective foil: ThermalFlex has highly reflective foil (up to 97%) and will achieve superior thermal performance and top of the range R Values for these type of products.
- Extra strong: ThermalFlex has been tested and rated as Extra Heavy Duty. The products are non-tearable and amongst the most durable on the market.
- Higher density/higher acoustic: The ThermalFlex range of products can assist with sound reduction. The foam also allows for better rigidity, easier installation and less compressibility when installed. This means ThermalFlex 8 can provide the required ’Thermal Break’ even when compressed under roof or wall cladding.
- Better roll coverage: When using the ThermalFlex 8 products, the 8mm roll sizes are 1.35m x 22.25m, and feature an additional overlap piece. This ensures each roll will give a full 30m2 coverage per roll rather than losing coverage when overlapping actual product. Other products without this overlap will typically lose around 10% (3m2) due to overlapping product. In addition, the overlap piece will also give a better dust and moisture seal over the join between the insulation rolls, and provide a neater finish.
Bradford Anticon
Bradford Anticon combines two very effective forms of insulation into a single product to provide these benefits.
The reflective foil acts as a barrier, which reduces the radiant heat entering the roof space by up to 97% and also controls condensation, while the insulation blanket absorbs outside noise and dramatically slows the transfer of heat into and out of a home.
CSR Polyair Insulation
Bradford Polyair™ is a range of thermo reflective insulation products that reduce radiant heat gain in roofs and walls. The products can be used in a range of residential and shed applications.
Multitel BAL 12.5-40 Blanket
Bradford Multitel™ BAL 12.5-40 is used to seal off areas from potential ember ingress in bushfire prone areas.
Bradford Multitel™ is manufactured from an engineered glasswool insulation blanket. The blanket is manufactured by spinning molten glass, containing up to 80% recycled content, into fine wool like fibres.
These are bonded together using a thermosetting resin. The product can be identified by its golden appearance.
Insulation FAQs
How many different insulation types are there?
There are 2 main types of insulation products:
- bulk: which primarily affects conduction heat flow between objects that are touching
- reflective foil: which primarily affects radiation heat flow.
What is the best type of insulation?
The most effective type of insulation is bulk insulation. It works by capturing millions of tiny pockets of still air within its structure. These air pockets create resistance to heat flow, giving the material its insulating power. It’s essential not to compress bulk insulation, as this reduces the air pockets and diminishes its ability to insulate. Bulk insulation comes in forms such as batts, blankets, and boards, or as loose fill.
Insulation benefits
Insulation offers numerous benefits, enhancing comfort, energy efficiency, and sustainability in homes and buildings. Here are some key advantages:
- Improved Energy Efficiency
- Enhanced Comfort
- Noise ReductionEnvironmental Impact: Reduced energy usage lowers greenhouse gas emissions, making insulation a sustainable choice that contributes to environmental conservation.
- Condensation Control
- Increased Property Value
- Fire Protection
- Extended Lifespan of HVAC Systems
