BOOST'R HYBRID insulation

BOOST'R HYBRID is a reflective breathable membrane with a built-in thermal performance for use on the cold-side of the building fabric in roofs, walls and suspended floors. BOOST’R HYBRID provides dual properties within a single product : A breathable membrane and insulation, allowing a reduction in the number of installation steps whilst reducing the thickness of the main insulation to achieve the same required U-Value. It can be used in conjunction with any type of insulation. BOOST'R HYBRID is available in rolls of 10m2 (1500 mm wide), 35mm thick.

Specification

BOOST'R HYBRID is a thin multifoil insulation with built-in breather membrane function. The product is composed of 9 layers, including a watertight reflective breather membrane, polyester wadding layers and perforated coated metal polyolefin films. BOOST'R HYBRID is typically installed as a breathable membrane above rafters in a roof, on the outside face of walls and under suspended timber floor joists. The product should be installed in a continuous layer to guarantee contiguous insulation, airtightness and water tightness. BOOST’R HYBRID is not intended to be used alone without weather protection (e.g. roof tiles). Product features: - Thickness: 35mm - Weight: 650g/m² - Declared thermal performance: Core thermal resistance: 1.35 m²K/W Thermal resistance with 2 air cavities of 20mm (heat flow horizontal): 2.4 m²K/W Declared emissivity: 0.05 (inner layer) and 0.31 (outer layer) - Water vapour resistance: 0.55MNs/g (overall product) 0.25MNs/g (breather membrane component) - Water tightness: W1 - Air permeability: Airtight - Fire rating: NPD - Roll size: 1.5 x 6.70m - Area: 10m²/roll - Non-hazardous with no special requirements for installation or disposal of waste - Life expectancy: The product is expected to remain effective for the service life of the building provided that it is installed in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions and certification.
