BayFoil™ Insulation
BayFoil™ is a high-quality, reflective insulation. Its unique manufacturing process enhances insulation performance and energy efficiency while also acting as a vapor retarder. It is ideal for post frame/pole barn and metal building construction.
BayFoil™ is a premium Reflective Insulation with a Lifetime Limited Warranty. R&D developed, tested, and manufactured in the U.S.A. to the highest quality standards. BayFoil consists of a premium reflective film and a blend of several compounds to ensure the surface won’t delaminate, crack, pit, chalk, peel or discolor. Formulated for greater strength and elasticity with an added blend of antioxidants, sunscreen, and color stabilizing compounds providing a premium quality white polymer surface that won’t fade over time.
BayFoil™ serves as a vapor retarder. A unique manufacturing process that bonds the polymer and reflective film together in one-step allows trapping and maintaining more air in each bubble for a higher quality insulation and improved energy efficiency year-round.
BayFoil is available as:
- Reflective Double Bubble Reflective
- Poly Double Bubble Reflective
- Reflective Single Bubble Reflective
