Bubble Foam Barrier

High-Performance Multi-Layer Insulation for Roofs, Walls & Cold Storage Engineered for Maximum Thermal Efficiency and Structural Protection.

SmartBuild™ Bubble Foam Barrier is a heavy-duty reflective insulation material constructed from multiple layers of air bubble film and polyethylene foam, laminated with reflective MPET foil on both sides.

This advanced structure offers exceptional thermal resistance, moisture control, and impact cushioning, making it ideal for high-performance insulation in cold storage units, metal buildings, radiant floors, and roof/wall assemblies requiring superior R-value and durability.

Manufactured by Shish Industries Limited,
an ISO 9001:2015 and ISO 14001:2015 Certified Manufacturer, SmartBuild™ Bubble Foam Barrier combines engineering-grade materials, jobsite flexibility, and global private label support for diverse construction needs.

✅ Solid (Non-Breathable) Vapor Barrier
✅ MPET Foil Both Sides – Dual Reflectivity
✅ Sound Absorption + Thermal Shield
✅ Roll Format – 25 mm Thickness

Key Features

Reflects up to 97% of radiant heat, reducing heat gain and improving energy efficiency.

Superior Insulation Performance

Provides a high R-value (approx. 5.0–6.0) for excellent thermal resistance.

Effective Vapor Barrier

Blocks moisture intrusion to prevent mold, mildew, and condensation buildup.

Impact Protection

Features a compressible bubble and foam core that absorbs shocks and adds durability.

Dual-Sided Reflectivity

Reflective on both sides for flexible installation in various orientations.

Safe & Certified

Fire-rated, VOC-free, and odorless for safe use in indoor environments.

Versatile Compatibility

Ideal for use with metal roofs, radiant floor heating, wall panels, and cold storage rooms.

Installation Guide

General Handling Recommendations

Always lift and move rolls carefully — avoid dragging on rough or abrasive surfaces.
Cut insulation using clean utility blades or shears; use a firm, flat surface for stability.
Roll edges may be sharp due to foil — wear gloves to avoid minor abrasions.
Use knee pads or mats when working on large insulation areas for extended time.

Personal Protective Equipment (PPE)

Gloves: Recommended for roll handling and trimming.
Safety Eyewear: When using cutting tools or working above shoulder height.
Protective Clothing: Optional — no glass fibers or irritants present.
Footwear: Safety shoes for warehouse or rooftop installation.

Installation Surface Requirements

Ensure all surfaces are clean, dry, and dust-free before applying.
Avoid installation in direct rainfall, saturated areas, or windy rooftop conditions.
Use appropriate fasteners (e.g. foil tape, staple guns, adhesive, double-sided construction tape).

Storage & On-Site Safety

Store rolls in a cool, dry, covered area.
Do not expose to direct UV sunlight for extended periods prior to installation.
Avoid placing heavy objects on top of stored rolls — may cause deformation or edge crushing.
Ensure materials are secured on jobsite to prevent wind uplift.

Fire Safety

SmartBuild™ Foam and Bubble Foam Barriers are Class A fire rated (ASTM E84) under controlled test conditions.
Do not expose directly to open flame, welding sparks, or uncontrolled high heat sources.
Not intended for use in fire-rated wall assemblies unless tested with that system.

Vapor & Moisture Behavior

These products are solid vapor barriers — not breathable.
Do not use in applications where inward drying or permeability is required.
Always verify compatibility with local building codes and climate zone requirements.
