AIR-CELL Insulation is Australia's leading thermo-reflective insulation brand. Its products significantly reduce your energy needs and impact on emissions by offering advanced thermal performance for all wall, roof, ceiling and underfloor applications in a fibre-free, non-allergenic and non-harmful medium. AIR-CELL uses no water in its production and is even more planet-friendly with their commitment to Carbon Neutral which offsets the CO₂ emissions from their vehicle fleet and flights with Verified Emissions Reduction units (VERs). AIR-CELL was the first insulation provider in Australia to achieve CodeMark certification, considered to be the building industry’s highest level of product conformance.

AIR-CELL Insulation

• is a clean, fibre-free alternative to conventional bulk fibre insulation.
• combines the technology of reflective air spaces with the conductional resistance of an encapsulated air cell structure or closed-cell foam structure, all in one ultra-thin sheet and one application.
• has tough moisture and impact resistant properties, which also produce a weather resistant barrier under roofs, protecting ceilings from roof leaks, storm and hail damage.

How it works

There are three types of heat that affect a building - radiation, convection, and conduction, with radiation being the most dominant form of heat loss or gain in summer or winter, occurring across wall cavities, roof spaces, and through floors.

• AIR-CELL's highly reflective foil first reflects up to 97% of radiant heat away from its surface. The small amount of heat absorbed is then further reduced by the conductional resistance of the polymer air cell structure, keeping you cool in summer and warm in winter.
• AIR-CELL's resistance to all forms of heat flow translates into energy cost saving of up to 50% for the building occupier and reduced greenhouse gas emissions for the environment.
• And because AIR-CELL^® is fibre-free, it is completely non-irritant, non-asthmatic, and non-allergenic, posing no health risks for the installer or home owner.
