Commodity : 3 PLY FOIL LAMINATES is a three-layer lamination of 12μ white polyester film / 25μ aluminum foil /12μ clear polyester film vapor barrier membrane is an absolute barrier that provides maximum protection for all types of insulations used in below ambient, sub-freezing and cryogenic applications on duct, pipe, or vessel systems.
3 PLY FOIL LAMINATES combines the excellent vapor barrier properties of aluminum with the outstanding mechanical and thermal characteristics of polyester film, giving an ideal, flexible and efficient barrier material, suitable for outdoor use.
SunPro® vapor barrier is used on cold systems either between layers of insulation on sub-freezing projects like LNG piping, or as the outer vapor-barrier jacket on ammonia, brine or glycol systems under mechanical jacketing, either metal or PVC. Polyester reinforced aluminum foil can also be used on chilled water systems replacing ASJ and PVDC jacketing either left exposed or under a protective metal or PVC jacket.
