Products

What is the difference between SuperQuilt and EcoQuilt?

Both products can be used for the same applications, however SuperQuilt is thicker of the two and has 19 layers of True Aluminium and Wadding, and is therefore the higher performing product. EcoQuilt Expert is made up of 6 layers of Foil and Wadding. Both Products also have a built in Vapour Control Layer.

Is SuperQuilt Breathable?

SuperQuilt isn’t a breathable material, it instead works as a high performing vapour control layer, stopping any air and moisture from passing through the material. If you are after a Breathable Multifoil we would instead advise BreatherQuilt.

Can our products be installed directly under carpets or floorboards?

Our FloorFoam is a 4mm insulation material which is specifically designed to go underneath Carpets, Wood, Laminate and Vinyl. It significantly reduces draught and helps to reflect heat back into the room which would usually be lost.

SuperQuilt and EcoQuilt Expert would require air gaps, so therefore cannot be used directly between Carpet and Floorboards.

Can SuperQuilt be used Stand Alone to achieve Building Regulations?

SuperQuilt can achieve a majority of U-values without the requirement for additional insulation, especially in walls and floors. To find out if SuperQuilt can work for your project please use our free to use and user friendly Online U-value Calculator.

Can SuperQuilt be used on its own in a loft conversion?

Despite being the highest performing certified Multifoil on the market, SuperQuilt usually requires additional insulation if you are going through building control. See our Free to Use Online U-Value Calculator to find your best insulation method.

Which material is best to use in a conservatory?

The best material for this application would be our EcoQuilt Expert, due to the material being thinner, lighter and easier to install. SuperQuilt can also be used to installed under a conservatory roof.

Technical

What’s the thickness of our products?

SuperQuilt: 40mm, compresses to approx 10mm.

How do Multifoil products work?

MultiFoils work by reflecting cold away during Winter months and reflecting the heat into your home. In the Summer Months MultiFoils help reflect excess heat away, keeping your home at a comfortable temperature all year round.

What is a U-Value?

A U-value is a measure of the heat transition through a building part (e.g. a Wall) the lower the number, the better the thermal properties. If you are going through building control you will more than likely need to achieve a specific U-value.

What is an R-Value?

Thermal resistance is a heat property and a measurement of a temperature difference by which an object or material resists a heat flow. Thermal resistance is the reciprocal of thermal conductance.

How can I cut your products?

Our Multifoils can be cut simply with a sharp Stanley Knife, or a sharp pair of scissors. Please visit our complete fitting kit page to purchase these items.

Do I need an air gap either side of multifoils?

To gain optimum performance from our multifoils, it is essential to have an airspace either side of the product. If an airspace either side isn’t manageable, then at least one airspace is vital.
