RadiantShield Premium 4

RadiantShield Premium

Our Premium range is suitable for large-scale building operations. RadiantShield Premium comprises a 4 mm XPE foam core. Although XPE and EPE may look similar, their construction has significant differences. Notably, with this product, we've achieved compliance with the flammability requirements for building materials as stipulated under the BCA. 

The outside surface is made of Polished aluminium, as usual. However, it's also reinforced with a woven mesh for severe strength and coated with a light green anti-glare finish to facilitate the trades' work on-site during installation. 

RadiantShield Premium has a 150 mm foil overlap flap, offering optimal coverage (the flap maximises the coverage area and minimises taping).

Specifications: 

• 1.35 m width (PLUS an additional 150 mm overlap of the woven silver face foil)
• Light-blue Anti-Glare Coating on one side
• Woven Reinforced on Anti-Glare side
• 4 mm XPE Foam
• Flammability Index 1
• Reflectivity 95-97%

Background

Solavis RadiantShield Premium Insulation has been developed as a vapour barrier and high-performance insulation. RadiantShield Premium is designed to combat heat gain and loss in all three forms (radiation, convection, and conduction), resulting in thermal performance superior to a considerable amount of traditional insulation.

RadiantShield Premium suits residential ceiling, roof, wall and underfloor applications. Solavis RadiantShield Premium insulation comprises a fire-retardant XPE foam sandwiched between two 99+% % pure aluminium foil. It reflects up to 96% of the radiant heat to achieve thermal comfort inside the home all year round.

Solavis RadiantShield Premium is a clean, safe and fibre-free insulation designed to replace conventional bulk insulation. It fully conforms with ASNZS 4859.1 and achieves over R3.0 for summer in residential ceiling applications.

Because our reflective insulation is foil-facing on both sides, it will benefit from reflecting heat in both summer and winter conditions (compared to single-sided foils, which only reflect heat in one direction).
