Double Reflective Insulation
Product Description:
Aluminum Bubble is an insulation material that is coated with aluminum foil on both sides and has a balloon material in between.
The most important function of Aluminum Bubble Wrap is to provide heat insulation. The outer and inner foil layers act as reflectors, reflecting hot air in the summer and cold air in the winter. It also prevents insects from entering and breeding inside the vehicle.
In insulation applications in areas such as caravans, prefabricated structures and roofs, walls, garages and warehouses. Bizofol bubble aluminium foil is adhered to all surfaces without leaving any gaps by applying silicone, acrylic or water-based adhesive.
Double Reflective Insulation (0,375 lb.) Aluminum Bubble is an insulation material consisting of bubble nylon material coated with aluminum foil on both sides. This material acts as a reflector, reflecting hot air in summer and cold air in winter, preventing pest reproduction in vehicles and buildings.
This product consists of 3-layer bubble wrap with 1 layer of 0,17 lb. in the middle, laminated with 0.09 lb. aluminum foil on both sides.
Advantages
· It is long-lasting with its structure resistant to fungus, mold and moisture.
· Clean, light, easy to install.
· Convective and conductive heat insulation.
· It is effective against hot and cold insulation. It saves energy.
It can be used in tent manufacturing, roof insulation, Cold chain packaging and container insulation as well as automobile sunshade. Its application is extremely easy compared to similar products, its heat insulation values are high, and its cost is extremely economical in total costs.
Thermal Performance
Foil and reflective films have a low emissivity, meaning very little radiation passes through the surface material. The lower the emissivity of a reflective surface, the higher its reflection, blocking 94-97% of heat transfer to keep buildings cooler in summer and warmer in winter.

Double Reflective How does insulation provide thermal insulation?
1. Radiation - Foil coatings act as radiant shields.
2. Conduction - Air trapped in bubbles slows down transfer from molecule to molecule.
3. Convection - When installed with a ¾ inch air gap, convection currents are minimized, increasing total system R-value by 1-2 points.
Main areas of use
· Roofs : Staple to rafters, foil side down, leaving 1 inch of air space.
· Walls: Strips of fur create the necessary gap; finish with drywall or metal siding.
· Scanning spaces : The foil faces the living area; the seams are sealed to prevent moisture.
· HVAC Ducts : Wrap the outer section, overlapping seams 2 inches and taping.
Points to consider when using
· Use a sharp knife: scissors will crush the bubbles.
· Seal each seam with approved aluminum tape to maintain the vapor barrier. Ensuring overlaps and airtight seals are essential for both moisture control and maintaining a continuous reflective surface. For best results, it is recommended that seams overlap by at least 2 inches.
· In humid areas, install permeable house wrap on the exterior to manage condensation.
· With its low emissivity, the shiny side must face a closed air gap or adjacent air film to effectively reflect radiant heat.
· A minimum of 3/4 inch air space adjacent to the reflective surface is recommended for optimum performance.
