What is Reflective Insulation?

Aluminum reflective insulation is a innovative and functional heat insulator with its efficiency in reducing/minimizing energy consumption, especially when oil prices rising unprecedentedly.

It is known that there are three types of heat transfer : conduction, convection, and mostly radiant energy transfer. Traditional mass insulation only works as a retarder of conductive current partly.

However, reflective insulation not only resists conductive current, but provides and excellent barrier against radiant heat up to 97% which is most of heat transfer. Reflective insulation is the most effective way[product] of heat insulating.

Reflective Insulation Features

1. Preventing moisturized and condensation by moisture-proofing layer.
2. Remnants free, and lower waste costs.
3. Thin and compact size provides maximum use of indoor space.
4. More effective than 80mm styrofoam
5. Resisting radiant heat on the surface of aluminum up to 97%.
6. Semi-permanent durability by resisting physical variation caused by temperature change.

Product Introduction

1. Adhesive Reflective Insulation (PrimeTech 5000)
   Size 6T x 1m x50m (packed in a roll type box)
2. Non-Adhesive Reflective Insulation (PrimeTech 5000)
   Size 6T x 1m x 50m (packed in a roll type box)
3. Non-Adhesive Reflective Insulation (PrimeTech 6000)
   Size 13T x 1m x 25m (packed in a roll type box)

Composition

Adapting theories of capacity-, resistance-, and relective-type heat insulations, the insulation is of multi-layer structure as follows :

1. Highly purified AL heat reflecting layer
2. Polyester warm keeping layer
3. Moisture-proofing layer
4. Safety layer
5. Polyethylene heat insulating layer
   are laminated into semi-permanent highly-efficient functional reflective insulation which is soft and thin, but highly-effective in heat insulating and perfectly suitable for detailed construction.

Features

1. Using reflective insulation as main heat insulators, up to space of 95mm per 1m2 becomes available, otherwise not possible (you will get larger floor space index)
2. Reflective insulation is based on the capacity-, resistance-, and reflective-type heat insulating laws, and is manufactured by laminating multiple layers by each materials' features. These make PrimeTech 5000 the highst heat insulating effect with its thin size.
3. Moisture-proofing layer is installed to avoid lowering insulating function when moisture inflows into the insulators. This layer also prevent condensation, capacity-lowering, building's being blazed by moisture, and damages to finishing materials.
4. The aluminum layer on the surface has so highly efficient reflective capacity that warem keeping and reduction in heating costs are expected by not absorbing heat for a long time and reflecting radiant heat from outside in summer time, and by holding heat indoor in winter time.
5. Reflective insulation is a roll-mat type, which is flexible and suitable to be applied to joints of pillars and delicate molding parts. Much of energy in saved by detailed and close application.
6. It is easy to move and store due to the thin and light roll-type product. You can install by yourself easily just using a knife, scissors, a nail gun, adhesives, or an aluminum tape.
   Changes in heat resistance value is very rare so that long-time use is guaranteed without and deterioration in heat insulation capacity.

Uses

1. External heat insulation of buildings - finishing with marble, red bricks, siding, complex panel
2. Internal heat insulation of buildings - finishing with papering on gypsum boards, plywoods
3. Floor heat insulation of buildings - finishing with decomstipating on a concrete floor after construction. Aluminum layer enhances conductive current and maximizes heating effects.
4. Others and Keeping warm - unapplicable parts by traditional mass insulations (pillars, crossbeams, corners of in and outside) also can be covered. overlapping construction of joints also can prevent heat exchanges.

Reflective Insulation Method

Inner wall insulation construcing method

1. Cleansing and painting walls
2. Constructing reflective insulation
   Use a concrete nail gun to attach insulators to wall closely.
   Construct the joint of insulators in a overlapping manner more than 5cm, and taping that with a specialized tape for aluminum.
   Fold coner parts into inner wall to prevent heat exchange, and fold ceiling parts up to ceiling.
3. Constructing internal finishing materials
   Apply wood work (or steel stud) on the insulators which are already constructed, or construct gypsum boards on them.
   Construct gypsum boards or plywoods and apply finishing materials.

External wall insulation constructing method

1. Cleansing and painting walls
2. Constructing reflective insulation
   Use a concreted nail gun to attach insulators to wall closely.
   Construct the joint of insulators in a overlapping manner more than 5cm, and taping that with a specialized tape for aluminum.
   Roll around windows, pillars, or crossbeans in which heat exchange is suspected or construct insulators to be projected.
3. Constructing external finishing materials
   Install stone - fix anchors and steel-truss anchors on the insulators which are already constructed, and construct dry-type finishing materials such as stones, sidings, complex panels.
   When welding steel-truss for complex panels, suppliement to avoid damages on insulators (use a thin steel board and hand this on the back of welding angle).

Floor insulation constructing method

1. Cleansing floors
   Remove dusts and clean floors to which insulators are to be attached.
2. Constructing reflective insulation
   Use a concrete nail gun to attach insulators to floor closely.
   Construct the joint of insulators in a overlapping manner more than 5cm, and taping that with a specialized tape for aluminum.
   Fold the wall side up to the finishing line to ensure the resistance against moisture inflow.
3. Constructing floor finishing materials
   Construct cooling/heating pipes or pouring aerated cocreate on the constructed insulators. construct floor finishing materials.

Roof and ceiling insulation constructing method

1. Prepare and clean the roof side
   Clean the roof to which insulators are to be attached.
2. Constructing reflective insulation
   Use a concrete nail gun to attach insulators to roof closely. (use adhesive materials when installing on water-proof sheets)
