Reflectafoil Tape

Reflectafoil Tape – High-Performance Flame Retardant Aluminium Foil Tape

Size: 100mm x 45mm

Reflectafoil Tape is a specialized, flame-retardant aluminium foil tape designed for sealing joints, seams, and overlaps in insulation systems, HVAC ducts, and other reflective or vapor barrier applications. Its robust design and high-quality adhesive properties make it a top choice for professionals working in construction, insulation, and industrial applications, particularly where flame resistance and durability are crucial.

Key Features:

• Flame Retardant Aluminium Foil:
  Reflectafoil Tape is constructed from durable aluminium foil that provides excellent flame retardancy. The tape has been tested to EN 13501 standards and meets Class 0, which signifies the highest level of fire safety. This makes it particularly suitable for use in environments where fire resistance is critical, such as in ductwork, ventilation systems, and around insulation in buildings.

• Cold Weather Acrylic Adhesive:
  The tape features a water-based acrylic adhesive designed to perform reliably in a wide range of temperatures, including cold weather conditions. This ensures that the tape adheres well even in colder environments where standard adhesives may fail. Its strong bonding properties provide long-term security, even on uneven surfaces, making it ideal for outdoor or industrial applications.

• Release Paper Liner for Easy Application:
  The adhesive side of the tape is lined with release paper, protecting the adhesive until it is ready for use. This makes the installation process more efficient by preventing the tape from sticking to itself during handling and storage. The release paper allows for precise application, ensuring a clean and professional finish.

Standards and Certifications:

• Tested to EN 13501 Fire Standards:
  Reflectafoil Tape has undergone rigorous testing and meets Class 0, the highest standard of fire safety. This certification ensures the tape is suitable for use in environments where flame retardancy is required by building codes or safety regulations.

• Class 0 Rating:
  The Class 0 rating means that Reflectafoil Tape is non-combustible and will not contribute to the spread of fire, making it ideal for use in projects where safety is a priority, such as in hospitals, schools, or large commercial buildings.

Applications:

• Insulation Sealing:
  Reflectafoil Tape is commonly used to seal joints, seams, and overlaps in reflective insulation systems. It creates an airtight and moisture-resistant seal, enhancing the efficiency of insulation and preventing heat loss. It can be used in both residential and commercial insulation projects, particularly for insulating walls, roofs, and floors.

• HVAC and Ductwork:
  In HVAC applications, Reflectafoil Tape is ideal for sealing ducts and pipework, ensuring that the system is airtight and operates efficiently. Its flame-retardant properties also add an extra layer of safety, preventing the spread of fire through ventilation systems.

• Vapor Barrier and Moisture Protection:
  The tape creates an effective vapor barrier when applied to insulation materials, preventing moisture infiltration and condensation buildup. This helps protect the insulation from damage and ensures that it remains effective over time, particularly in environments prone to humidity or temperature fluctuations.

• Cold Weather Applications:
  Reflectafoil Tape's cold weather acrylic adhesive makes it suitable for use in environments where temperatures are lower than normal. It maintains strong adhesion even in cold climates, ensuring that the tape remains securely in place over time.

Benefits:

• High Flame Resistance:
  Reflectafoil Tape’s Class 0 fire rating ensures that it is a safe and reliable choice for any project where fire safety is a key concern.

• Durable Adhesion in Cold Weather:
  The specially formulated acrylic adhesive ensures that the tape adheres firmly in both cold and warm conditions, making it versatile and reliable for year-round use.

• Moisture and Vapor Barrier:
  Its ability to create an effective moisture and vapor barrier makes Reflectafoil Tape ideal for improving the performance of insulation systems and protecting buildings from damp and condensation-related issues.

• Easy to Apply and Handle:
  The release paper liner simplifies the installation process, preventing the adhesive from sticking prematurely and allowing for more accurate and precise placement.
