The primary benefit is its ability to reflect up to 95% of heat, acting as both a radiant barrier and a vapor barrier to significantly reduce energy bills and improve home comfort year-round.
Installation is very straightforward. The material can be easily cut with standard kitchen scissors and affixed to surfaces, making it suitable for DIY projects.
Yes, the SuperFOIL SFTV FR is fully certified to meet relevant UK and EU building regulations.
This product functions as a radiant barrier. Its R-value contribution is dependent on the installation method, particularly the presence and size of air gaps, rather than an intrinsic material R-value.
Yes, it is designed to complement existing insulation by adding a radiant barrier and vapor barrier layer.
Yes, it is made with up to 40% recycled materials, making it an eco-friendly choice.
Seams should be overlapped by approximately 50mm and sealed using a compatible foil tape designed for insulation applications to maintain the integrity of the vapor barrier.
Verify that the required air gaps are maintained and that all seams are properly sealed with foil tape.
Ensure you are using sharp scissors. For thicker applications, a utility knife might be more effective but requires caution.
Check that the vapor barrier function is intact and that there are no breaches allowing moisture ingress. Ensure proper ventilation in the building structure.

Care:
Clean the surface of the membrane with a damp cloth if it becomes dirty. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or solvents. Handle the material carefully during installation to prevent punctures or tears.
