What is XPE Foam Insulation?

XPE Foam is a 3-in-1 solution providing a protective insulation barrier, a radiant barrier and a thermal barrier. It’s made from an advanced high-density closed-cell XPE foam core, sandwiched between two layers of reflective foil.

Advanced Benefits

• Made from cross-linked closed-cell XPE foam so it is non-irritant to skin and non-allergenic (easy for contractors to work with).
• Advanced thermal solution: protects against radiant heat in ceilings and walls.
• Guaranteed performance: durable, non-degrading product using a unique anti-tear material, woven into the aluminium foil
• No health or safety risk: contains no fibres making it non-allergenic, non-irritant and non-carcinogenic.
• Reduce utility bills: protects against summer heat gain and winter heat loss to reduce energy requirements.
• Rodent & insect deterrent: does not provide a food source or nesting grounds.
• Effective in dampening noise.
• Waterproof: protects walls and ceiling (sarking) from water damage and is ideal for humid climates.
• Fire retardant: complies to Australian fire standards AS1530.2 & AS1530.3.
• Environmentally friendly: no CFC’s are used in manufacture.
• 10-year warranty and manufactured under ISO 9001:2000 quality standards.
• Helps prevent condensation and moisture build-up.

Sizes

• Roll Dimensions: 1350mm (W) x 22.25m (L)
• FREE 50mm overlap flap
• Coverage: 30m² per roll
• The overlap flap helps maintain a seal without needing to overlap the XPE or tape the seal.

Uses & Features

• Our XPE 6mm replaces traditional foil sarking and can reduce reliance on bulk fibre, while helping with acoustic noise insulation.
• Ideal for sheds and timber framed construction.
• USED under metal roofs
• Suitable for domestic, commercial, horticultural and shed applications.
• Uses a bimetallic highly reflective aluminium film sandwiching a low conductive layer of XPE foam.
• Very low rate of conduction, reducing the amount of heat transmission into the building.
• Acts as a medium vapour barrier reducing moisture and dust particles into roof and wall cavities.
• Provides excellent thermal properties and reflectivity for roof, cavity, wall wrap and floor systems.
• Helps reduce thermal bridging between exterior cladding and structure.

Installation Tips (For Best R-Value)

• Install with at least a 25mm air space (60mm is best) adjacent to each side of the product.
• Shiny side to the sky.
