What Is an Insulon® Thermal Barrier?
It's a new kind of thermal insulation. An Insulon® Shaped-Vacuum™ Thermal Barrier uses a vacuum layer to form a virtually impenetrable barrier to the conductive transfer of thermal energy.

What Thickness of Thermal Insulation
Do I Need?
That question almost doesn't apply here. Look how effective an Insulon barrier is compared to conventional thermal insulation:

• An Insulon barrier allows 40 times less thermal conduction than fiberglass insulation.

• 30 times less conduction than expanded polystyrene.

• 25 times less conduction than a completely empty air gap.

Insulon barriers have already been designed and manufactured down to the width of a human hair – with no loss of their extraordinary insulating power – and even thinner applications are possible.
