Introduction
Fire performance of SuperFOIL FR
The new SuperFOIL FR fire-rated multifoil insulation performs impressively in all fire tests. Each FR product achieves Class 0 Fire Propagation certification when combined with SuperFOIL Superior foil tape. This means that if a fire comes into contact with the product, it will not spread quickly and will not ignite quickly. It also has a Class 1 Spread of Flame certification, which means that flames cannot quickly spread across the surface. These certifications ensure that your building is safe from fire and that its spread is limited.

When To Use Foil Tape
When To Use Foil Tape
If you want to achieve airtightness and moisture resistance, you should use foil tapes. Because of their versatility and durability, they can be used in a wide range of applications. These include insulation, ventilation, and air conditioning projects.
Insulation
Eliminates air leakage. It is suitable for use with foil-faced PIR boards, multifoils, and vapour control layers. Some insulation products, however, require the use of specific foil tapes to ensure this. To ensure that SuperFOIL multifoil insulation performs to its full potential, the manufacturer recommends using SuperFOIL SUPERIOR foil tape. Foil tape can be used on the roof as well as the walls.
Foil tapes can be used to seal any edges of overlapping vapour control layers or damp proof membranes. NOVIA VCL foil tapes have a high tack and are easy to install in the walls and ceilings of insulated building structures.
Ventilation and Air Conditioning Systems
Leaks in a ducting system can result in wasted energy and higher bills. Using foil tape that adheres to ducts, seal any joints or gaps. This will aid in the reflection of heat and light while also providing excellent moisture resistance.
Before applying the foil tape, make sure the surfaces are clean and dry. This reduces the possibility of dirt or dust interfering with the application. Simply cut the required length of foil tape and smooth it over the seam.
