Foilboard Insulation Panel
The FOILBOARD Insulation Panel is an excellent alternative to traditional bulk insulation as it insulates the entire wall in one application. This creates a true thermal break around your home. New test results show that you can achieve an R2.8 in many wall cavities. Simply contact us here at Insul Fibre Insulation to find out more.
FOILBOARD Insulation Panel can also be used in many other residential and commercial applications. Be it for walls, underfloor or ceilings the Foilboard Insulation Panel is truly a smarter way to insulate.
INSTALLATION SUGGESTIONS - Installation of FOILBOARD Insulation Panel is best done after frame, bracing, roof, fascia, windows and plumbing rough-in are all complete and frame inspection is passed. Please note: for a proper fit, plumbing should be connected to floor joist or 400-500mm above bottom plate. Electrical wiring should be done after FOILBOARD Insulation Panel is installed. In windy conditions it is suggested that the windward side is sheeted first, thus sheltering the rest of the job. FOILBOARD Insulation Panel may be easily cut to size with a long snap blade knife, handsaw, or bread knife.
Fixed to the underside the floor joists FOILBOARD Insulation Panel greatly improves the thermal performance of the floor. There are many custom solutions available, for further information please contact us to find out more.
FOILBOARD Insulation Panel is more than just insulation - when used externally on framed walls it provides a weatherproof shield which enables internal trades to proceed without waiting for brickwork or cladding completion. Furthermore, it is one of only a few materials on the market that are best suited to brick cavity applications that meet the requirements of the Building Code of Australia (BCA).
Since no paper based products are used in its manufacture the FOILBOARD Insulation Panel will never delaminate in prolonged wet and windy conditions. The exclusive fasteners ensure that FOILBOARD Insulation Panel will remain in position thoughout the construction.
Without insulation a cavity brick wall has an "R" value of 0.5. The FOILBOARD Insulation Panel centred within the cavity using spacer blocks will achieve an already impressive R 2.3 with the SUPER 15 and R 1.9 with the STANDARD 10. Higher R Values are available upon request. The FOILBOARD Insulation Panel is easy to install during construction of cavity brick walls. Simply place the spacer blocks over the brick ties, then push the FOILBOARD Insulation Panel over the ties, tape up the joins to create a thermal break.

ACOUSTICS - Recent laboratory tests gave Foilboard the thumbs up for Acoustic performance, achieving an acoustic rating of STC 57 on a brick veneer wall. This is the equivalent of Rockwool batts in the wall, or a Double Brick wall.
FOILBOARD Insulation Panel is compliant to AS/NZS 4859.1 standards and meets the current requirements of the BCA.
