non-conductive & non-corrosive Polastic Insulation System™ features dual reflective surfaces comprising ultra-thin technologically advanced film, similar to Mylar® which was developed by NASA. Polastic Insulation SystemTM is non-conductive and non-corrosive. Polastic Insulation SystemTM provides superior thermal performance and energy efficiency without compromising product integrity or health and safety.
PREVENTs thermal bridging & Condensation Polastic Insulation System™ is a 3-in-1 continuous cover insulation that protects against thermal bridging, condensation and air infiltration. Considered best practice by building scientists, continuous cover insulation moves the dew point location to outside the wall or roof cavity, reducing the potential for condensation to occur inside the building envelope where mould and mildew could otherwise accumulate.
for A healthy home OR BUILDING Polastic Insulation SystemTM has impressive eco and green credentials including internationally recognised and trusted Global GreenTagCertTM certification. Polastic Insulation System™ was specified on the University of Wollongong’s Sustainable Buildings Research Centre (SBRC) - the first ever Australian building targeting full accreditation in the internationally acclaimed Living Building Challenge™ - the pinnacle of green building standards and the most advanced measure of sustainability in the built environment.
100% non-conductive cfc/hcfc free No harmful carcinogens no off-gas chemicals Zero OZONE DEPLETION Potential fibre free insulation easy to install non-toxic

complies WITH NCC / BUILDING CODE OF AUSTRALIA CERTIFIED r-value solutions 3-in-1 Insulation | Thermal Break | Vapour Barrier Polastic Insulation System™ is a high performance 3-in-1 reflective insulation, thermal break and vapour barrier that effectively blocks all three types of heat transfer: radiant, convective and conductive. Designed as a total insulation solution, Polastic Insulation System™ is scientifically engineered to perform in real-life built environments in all weather conditions and locations throughout Australia.
innovative design & technology Polastic Insulation System™ comprises a specially engineered fire retardant expanded polystyrene (FR-EPS) core, together with the thermal blocking power of highly advanced, low emissivity reflective film facers on both sides, similar to Mylar® which was developed by NASA scientists to insulate space suits. This unique and innovative combination of design, technology and thermal performance make Polastic Insulation System™ the most effective, entirely nonconductive, 3-in-1 insulation solution available in Australia.
flexible, DURABLE & breathable

Polastic Insulation System™ is lightweight, flexible and durable - allowing for fast and easy installation with minimal labour required. Polastic Insulation SystemTM is a breathable, permeable insulation that also provides an air and vapour barrier, replacing the need for additional products such as building wrap or sarking. Polastic Insulation System™ is non-conductive and non-corrosive - it will not rust, erode, shrink, sag or delaminate. Polastic Insulation System™ is anti-bacterial, antifungal and resistant to vermin and insects.
