Metal Building Insulation: Thermax Heavy Duty
THERMAX Heavy Duty

A glass-fiber-reinforced polyisocyanurate foam core faced with nominal 4 mil embossed white acrylic-coated aluminum on one side and 1.25 mil embossed aluminum on the other side. Can be installed exposed to the interior without a thermal barrier.

Applications
THERMAX Heavy Duty is used for exposed wall and/or ceiling insulation in agricultural, commercial, and industrial buildings, such as factories, warehouses, farm buildings, retail establishments, cold storage structures, and similar facilities.

Not all sizes available for all applications.

Dow is transitioning to a new blowing agent. As a result, current R-values are changing. New R-values are referenced in the chart provided.
