INSULATION FACING
 

Insulation LaminatorMetal building insulation is used for pole buildings and pre-engineered steel buildings.

Insulation is laminated with using an insulation laminator. The insulation laminator glues polypropylene facing on the insulation. When laminated R19, 6 inch insulation, is reduced in size. It is certified to go back to it's original size and R-Value.

Vapor Barrier Facings Available on APi Metal Building Insulation:

APi 2550 Vinyl insulation facingAPi 2550 Vinyl
A reasonable priced insulation facing with excellent handling characteristics. Vinyl is flexible enough to allow stretching during installation to avoid wavy appearance and wrinkles. This facing is recommended for installation when color and economy are desired. Vinyls are thermoplastic. They become more pliable as the temperature increases. The reverse is also true. Vinyl with a low work ability rang of 25 deg. F will be almost brittle and should be handled with extreme care.

APi 2550 facing is available with either one 6" or two 3" tabs.
