Product Application
A commercial grade Foil-Scrim-Kraft Facing with 3-way scrim and 60gsm Kraft, mainly used as a facing & vapor barrier for glasswool / rockwool / mineral wool / foam duct wrap insulation, also suitable for other insulation applications where a general use vapor retarder is needed. It is also a good choice for radiant barrier applications because of its low emissivity.
