Residential Commercial Metal Building Barndominium Wooden Structure

Polyfoam PX30

A reflective insulation built around a closed-cell foam core, giving it a thicker thermal break than our bubble-based products. Foil face reflects 95% of radiant heat and the heavy-duty white woven backing stays clean when left exposed. A good match for metal buildings, barndominiums, and carports.

Features & Benefits

What makes it work

  • 7-layer construction with a 0.12" closed-cell EPE foam core
  • Low-emittance metalized foil surface (E = 5%)
  • Reflects 95% of radiant heat
  • Corrosion-resistant metalized foil for long-term performance
  • Heavy-duty white woven reinforcement for added strength
  • Helps reduce heat transfer through metal framing by adding a thermal break
  • Strong, stable laminate that holds up well during handling and install
  • Works well as a liner in metal buildings, sheds, carports, barns, prefab structures, and more
  • Can be used on its own or paired with fiberglass or foam in hybrid assemblies
  • Clean white woven finish for a brighter, more finished interior appearance

  1. R-values represent estimated and potential heat resistance for our insulation in the proposed application.
  2. Actual performance depends on air film size, temperature, surface condition, and airflow direction (up, down, or horizontal).
  3. Calculations are based on RIMA, AIRAH, ASHRAE, and ISO 6946 standards, following ASTM procedures for air film resistance.
  4. When two air spaces are used, values assume still air conditions in both spaces.
  5. For a full R-value assessment, please contact us directly or your nearest dealer.
