Tuff-R™ PIR Insulation by Dynamic Composite Technologies


Featuring the highest insulation value of any foam sheathing currently available, Dow Tuff-R™ is a closed cell foam core sandwiched between two durable, aluminium foil exterior facers. The first is a continuous sheet of aluminium foil, the other is aluminium foil-Kraft paper-aluminium foil. Air cannot penetrate the facers, which also minimises water and water vapour intrusion into the polyisocyanurate foam insulation core, and allows the foam R-value to stabilise at a higher value. Tuff-R™ insulation can be easily applied to a variety of substrates.

Tuff-R™ is manufactured with a HFC blowing agent, which has zero ozone depletion potential (ODP) than standard CFC/HCFC blowing agents and is Green Star Compliant.
