PolyShield™ PolyX80
Building Blanket
80mm spun glass fibre foil faced building blanket insulation with a laminate of reflective foil with an actual R-Value of 1.8
PolyShield™ PolyX80 Building Blanket combines the thermal efficiency of spun glass fibre with a laminate of reflective foil which not only further enhances the thermal efficiency of the system but also serves to act as a dust and moisture barrier. This 80mm foil faced blanket insulation provides an actual R-Value of 1.8.
PolyX 80 is intended for both thermal and acoustic applications. It is made from highly resilient, inorganic glass fibres manufactured by spinning molten glass, containing up to 80% recycled content and bonded together using a thermosetting resin.

F.A.Q.
Is PolyX 80 compliant in all states?
Yes, PolyX 80 meets all relevant Australian regulations and standards in all states. AS/NZS 4859.1: 2002 Materials used in the Thermal Insulation of Buildings and complies with the Building Code of Australia (BCA) requirements.
PolyX 80 Application
Designed for application under metal, fibre cement, and concrete roof cladding PolyX 80 blanket eliminates the problems associated with condensation build up on the underside of the roof cladding. The reflective foil face faces down toward the air space under the roof and prevents airborne moisture from reaching the surface of the roof cladding.
PolyX 80 also performs as an acoustic insulative barrier. It reduces noise from outside the home, such as rain and from within the home by absorbing reverberant noise. PolyX’s bulk insulation blanket is made from non-combustible fibres and meets the BAL requirement for metal clad roofs in bushfire areas.
What is the fire performance of PolyX 80?
PolyX80 has a Fire Assessment Classification
Group 1 Tested in accordance with AS/ISO 9705 & AS5637.1.
Bushfire Attack Level of PolyX 80 is suitable for BAL-40 as outlined in AS 3959 for metal roofs. The glasswool
component of PolyX 80 Blanket is classified as non-combustible in accordance with AS1530.1 and is suited for sealing ember entry points at ridges, valleys and fascias to meet NCC requirements for metal clad roofs in bushfire areas. The reflective foil facing component satisfies the NCC flammability index requirement of ≤5.
In areas where BAL-FZ is a requirement higher density glasswool or mineral wool is required and available upon request.
What is the thickness of PolyX 80?
Total thickness = 80mm.
What is the actual R-value of PolyX 80?
PX80 has an actual R-Value of 1.8.

PolyX 80 Installation Requirements
In the event of PolyX 80 Blanket becoming wet, it should be dried prior to installation to obtain maximum performance and prevent damage to other building elements. PolyX 80 absorbs less than <0.02% by volume (ASTM C1104 tested) when exposed to environmental conditions of 50°C and 95% relative humidity for four days.
