For effective steam and waterproofing, as well as for keeping heat and noise absorption, self-adhesive foil foam foil is increasingly being used today.
This is a special polished foil of two layers of pure aluminum, between which is a layer of self-extinguishing foamy polyethylene.
This insulating material has excellent thermal insulation and reflective properties - foam polyethylene has a low thermal conductivity, and the foil has considerable reflective properties, thereby complementing each other.
This material significantly increases the thermal protection of the structure.
Self-adhesive foamed penofol can be used both as an independent thermal insulation and combined with any other, massive insulation, significantly complementing their properties.
The use of foam foam gives a chance to reduce the size of building structures of floors, walls, and roofs, without losing performance.
In addition, the price of foamed penofol is not very high, which makes it one of the best building materials for these purposes.
Penofol is able to reflect 97% of the heat radiation, which is not available to any modern massive heat insulator.
In the summer days, the heat rays will reflect outside the building, and in the winter - the precious heat will reflect into the interior of the building.
Penofol does not contain harmful components and various carcinogens, so working with this material is absolutely safe.
A qualitative roll of foam foil should always have a protective brand name, as well as a factory label for the installation and installation of insulating material.

Penophil insulation
The areas of use of the Penofol insulating material are quite extensive. In construction, foam foil is used to insulate the roof, walls and ceilings.
Phenofol insulation of basement, attic and attic rooms, doors and sealing of double-glazed windows is successfully produced.
Self-adhesive foil foam foil can also be used to isolate pipelines in heating and water supply systems, space behind radiators.
Penofol is used to isolate process equipment in the gas producing, oil producing, food industries, for noise insulation and insulation of sewerage systems, air conditioning and ventilation, and even for noise insulation and car interior insulation.
In the defense industry, foam foil is used for the thermal insulation of military vehicles, packaging devices for navigation and ammunition.
This material can insulate and isolate any premises: hangars and warehouses, children's and medical institutions, cold stores, shops, baths, etc.
Characteristics of foam foam
With its small thickness, foam foil is easy to install and has unique characteristics:
- prevents heat loss
- provides 100% vapor barrier
- has excellent noise insulation and reflective properties
- has high resistance to heat transfer and low thermal conductivity
- environmentally friendly
- durable( can be 25years)
- provides good protection against moisture
- withstands temperature from -60 C to 100 C
- thin, lightweight and dbky.
Penofol is completely safe. It is used in the food and medical industry, without requiring any safety rules.
From the fire safety side, penofol refers to flammable substances that do not support combustion.
This material has all the necessary certificates of conformity, fire and hygienic safety certificates.
Installation of foam foam
The main rule in the construction of roofs: the roof should be so arranged that moisture does not penetrate the constituent elements either in the form of atmospheric precipitation - from above, or in the form of water vapor - from below.
If moisture has penetrated, and natural insulation does not cope with it, then in such cases, waterproofing with penofol is necessary.
Before installing foam foam, all joints should be glued with a special gluing aluminum tape( do not mix with tape).
Detailed scheme for installing penofol foil can be obtained from the technical support service "Penofol"
Wall insulation with foam foam is produced both internally and externally. To install from the outside use perforated penofol.
In addition to sound and heat insulation, it protects the building from rain, and also removes steam from the structure.
Penofol installed inside the building performs the functions of steam and sound insulation, and retains heat. Usually, foam polystyrene is insulated by the internal surfaces of the building.
In this case, significant savings are achieved, the possibility of condensation of moisture is eliminated, heat losses are reduced and in the building it is possible to work year-round, etc.

For the insulation of the cold underfloor or the base, penofol is installed without breaks, over the entire surface, over the lag with the foil side up.
Before the foil, an air gap of 20 mm in thickness should be created.
For floor insulation, usually, one-way foam foam is used in combination with conventional massive insulation.
