Insultec
Insultec Heat Re-radiating Membrane is highly durable and flexible, allowing it to move with the substrate. Insultec fills and bridges hairline cracks and can be applied to a wide variety of materials such as concrete, asphalt, timber, clean or primed fibro and properly primed metals. It is supplied in off-white colour with a matt finish to alleviate glare. The Insultec membrane application adds longer life to the substrates it is applied to, Its heat insulating abilities are remarkable with reports during excessive temperature periods of interior temperatures being lowered by 15 degrees Celsius and more.
• Insultec contains no ceramic based components
• Insultec is water-based and totally safe. It contains absolutely no harmful ingredients
• Insultec is water proof and has been used extensively over the last ten years in very aggressive climates
• Insultec has been vigorously tested by many leading world authorities over the years
• Insultec rejects and re-radiates 95% of all infra-red rays and 85% of all ultra-violet rays back into the atmosphere
• Organic compounds with Insultec absorb and trap the remainder of the heat which has not been re-radiated. Of the retained heat, 1% passes through to the structure
• Insultec is microporous, which allows the membrane to breath. This means that the inside air cools at the same rate as the outside ambient (i.e. no internal heat build up)
