Ducting Insulation   The functions of our ducting insulation, EncaSeal™ and EncaClad™ is to block at least 96% of infrared energy and virtually all UV energy that would otherwise be absorbed by the soft insulation. In a short period of time this energy will break down the surface of most foam insulation, shortening its life and increasing dust levels to unacceptable levels.   EncaSeal™ has been specifically developed by Apollo to completely encase most types of insulation used in the HVAC sector.  It is a tough 130 micron membrane with a low emissivity surface of only 0.048.  EncaSeal™ completely encase and seal carbon impregnated polyurethane and fibre insulation used on air conditioning ducts, pipe work and storage tanks plus transport, marine and OEM applications.  100% waterproof and bug proof, this Class 0 fire rated material has a Valéron® cross laminated high density polyethylene (HDPE) substrate core making it difficult to puncture or tear, properties essential for a long working life and keeping wastage to a minimum during installation.    EncaSeal™ 150PE holds the same reflectivity properties of EncaSeal™; it is however 150 micron membrane aluminium surface bonded to a tough layer of polyester.  These layers are in turn bonded to a 100 micron Polyethylene (PE) substrate core which then has the 20 micron self adhesive layer backed by a paper release liner.   Both EncaSeal™ and EncaSeal™ 150PE have a low moisture transmission rate of 0.021 g/m.  Acting as an excellent vapour and dust barrier, halting moisture migration into the soft insulation layers and sealing-in dust particles, this feature being desirable where ducting is associated with “clean rooms”. The system ensures existing and replaced foam or quilt insulation is sealed, kept dry and its performance maintained.   EncaClad™ is a durable 345 micron membrane designed to completely encase external insulated or un-insulated structures, pipelines and ducts. It can also be used to clad flat surfaces and large storage tanks. Other uses include transport, marine and OEM applications. EncaClad™ blocks 96% of infrared energy and virtually all UV energy that would otherwise be absorbed by any soft insulation. The aluminium surface of EncaClad has a special coating that ensures it’s UV resistant, bright surface never tarnishes; it is 100% waterproof and bug proof.   With a low moisture transmission rate of less than 0.020 g/m² EncaClad™ also act as an excellent vapour and dust barrier, halting moisture migration into any soft insulation layers and sealing-in dust particles.  The system ensures existing and replaced foam or quilt insulation is sealed, kept dry and its performance maintained.   Please click below to download product data sheets   EncaSeal™      EncaSeal™ 150PE        EncaClad™      Apollo Tape
