Product Overview: Aluminum Foil Faced Glasswool Blanket & FSK Glass Wool Roll
Aluminum foil faced glasswool blanket (also known as FSK glass wool roll or foil faced glass wool insulation) represents a flexible, lightweight insulation material composed of fine glass fibers bonded with a thermosetting resin. Specifically, one side of the blanket is laminated with reinforced aluminum foil (FSK), creating a reflective vapor barrier. Consequently, this dual-layer structure delivers excellent thermal insulation, sound absorption, and moisture resistance.
TARCO Industry produces its aluminum foil faced glasswool blanket from high-quality quartz sand, limestone, dolomite, and recycled glass cullet. During production, we melt these raw materials at high temperatures and fiberize them into fine filaments. Ultimately, the aluminum foil facing is bonded to one side, providing a reflective surface that reduces radiant heat transfer.
Key Features & Benefits of FSK Faced Glasswool Blanket
Furthermore, the aluminum foil facing provides a reflective vapor barrier that significantly enhances thermal performance. Additionally, low thermal conductivity of 0.032–0.049 W/m·K effectively reduces heat loss and improves energy efficiency in HVAC systems and metal buildings. Moreover, the FSK facing acts as a radiant heat barrier, reflecting up to 95% of radiant heat. Consequently, water repellency greater than 98% prevents condensation and mold growth. Therefore, it is easy to cut, wrap, and install on irregular surfaces, reducing labor costs. In addition, it offers anti-corrosion, anti-aging, and resistance to microbial growth for long service life. Furthermore, it is available with low-VOC and formaldehyde-free binders for green building projects.
