BlueTex™ Insulation for Metal Buildings
AtticFoil.com was started in 2006 as a solution for radiant heat problems in residential attics. What we found was that over time, as radiant barriers were found to be extremely effective at blocking radiant heat transfer, the scope and places it was used began to expand, and specifically in metal building applications. *BlueTex™ insulation is *not* intended for use in residential applications, including attic spaces.
BlueTex™ metal building insulation is available in 50″ wide for horizontal insulation installation and 62″ wide for vertical insulation installation in metal buildings.
So we set out to design a product that would still keep the radiant heat out, but also help to keep the interior surface temperature above the dew point (to prevent condensation). We found that with just a little bit of denser XPE foam insulation and the radiant barrier foil, we could create a high-quality product that we would be proud to stand behind. BlueTex™ Insulation is specifically designed for barns, sheds, storage facilities, airplane hangers, mini-storage units and poultry facilities. Just about any type of non-conditioned metal building insulation application is a suitable use for it. And that’s how BlueTex™ Insulation was brought to life. *BlueTex™ insulation is *not* intended for use in residential attic spaces.
2 Levels of Moisture Protection: Pro & Supreme
BlueTex™ is the best of two worlds, combining premium aluminum foil with high-quality EPE & XPE foam cores to work as a durable, all-in-one insulation for any metal building, whether it’s new construction or existing. After extensive research, we also decided to design it with a tape tabbed edge so it’s easy to install, we made it washable so you can clean it up if you’re using it in a professional setting, and we made it in our best-selling foil/white for commercial applications. BlueTex™ is available now in two different grades: Pro and Supreme.
BlueTex™ Pro
BlueTex™ Pro is available in a 2mm 62″ wide roll. For warm/mixed climates, we recommend the Pro series as a good insulation option. The Pro series of foil/foam products are great for heat rejection and light moisture control. You can use the BlueTex™ alone in a non-conditioned or semi-conditioned metal building, or combine it with traditional insulation for a conditioned space. Fasteners and matching seam tape is also available for purchase.
BlueTex™ Supreme
BlueTex™ Supreme 6mm comes in a 50″ wide roll (for horizontal installs) or a 62″ wide roll (for vertical installs). This is our top of the line foil/foam insulation. For the Supreme we combine an XPE (foam) with 97% reflective pure aluminum foil. Like our Pro series, the Supreme has foil on one side and a bright white glossy finish on the other side. BlueTex™ Supreme is an excellent choice for colder climates to reflect radiant heat and provide MAXIMUM moisture prevention. You can use the BlueTex™ alone in a non-conditioned or semi-conditioned metal building, or combine it with traditional insulation for a conditioned space. Fasteners and matching seam tape is also available for purchase.
