Thermo-Foil

 

In partnership with Ubbink (UK) Ltd, The Ventilation Specialists Ltd is pleased to offer Apollo Energy Research (click on the link for Apollo website), energy saving reflective foil based on ideas conceived by NASA space scientists to protect orbiting craft from solar radiation.

This heat control technology has spawned a variety of terrestrial applications.  These include ‘space’ blankets that keep athletes and accident victims warm, heat reflective sheaths for water tanks, air conditioning ducts, heat sensitive equipment and even formula one racing car components.

Thermo-Foil and other heat reflective systems from Apollo Energy Research are a further development where mass production techniques have provided tough, cost effective membranes for use within structures.

Installing a Heat Reflecting Membrane or a Risk Management system to control internal environments will substantially reduce a building’s energy requirement in three ways...

Radiant heat passing through roof, ceiling, wall and floor structures will be blocked

Air leakage and infiltration through the building’s envelope is virtually eliminated

The building’s other insulation layers will remain dry as the system acts as an excellent vapour barrier.
