KOMEX Polyethylene Film 3mm 0.6m x 5m

The KOMEX polyethylene film is a high-quality insulation material designed for effective thermal management and surface protection. Measuring 0.6 meters in width and 5 meters in length, this 3mm thick sheet features a durable polyethylene foam structure reinforced with an integrated aluminium foil layer. This combination provides a robust barrier against moisture, dust, and heat loss, making it a versatile solution for various construction and renovation projects.

Advantages

This material offers excellent thermal insulation properties due to its specialized foam composition and reflective aluminium surface. The inclusion of the foil layer significantly enhances its ability to reflect heat, contributing to improved energy efficiency in insulated spaces. Its lightweight yet durable design ensures ease of handling during installation, while the 3mm thickness provides a reliable buffer against physical wear and environmental factors.

Suitable for

• Thermal insulation of walls and floors
• Reflective heat shielding behind radiators
• Temporary surface protection during renovation
• Moisture barrier for construction applications

When it may not be suitable

This product is not self-adhesive, which may require additional mounting materials such as tape or mechanical fasteners for installation. It is not intended for structural load-bearing applications or for use in environments exposed to extreme open flames or high-temperature industrial machinery.

Key specifications

• Material: Polyethylene foam with aluminium foil
• Thickness: 3mm
• Dimensions: 0.6m x 5m
• Total area: 3m²
• Thermal conductivity: 0.392 W/(m·K)
• Density: 25 kg/m³

How to use

To install the film, ensure the surface is clean, dry, and free of debris. Measure the area to be covered and cut the material to the required size using a utility knife or heavy-duty scissors. Position the film with the aluminium foil side facing the heat source or the area requiring reflection. Secure the edges using appropriate adhesive tape or staples, ensuring that joints are tightly sealed to maintain the integrity of the moisture and thermal barrier.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify the required surface area to ensure the 3m² coverage is sufficient for your project
• Ensure you have the necessary mounting accessories, as the film is not self-adhesive
• Confirm that the thermal conductivity rating meets your specific insulation requirements

For optimal thermal performance, ensure there is a small air gap between the aluminium foil surface and the heat source to allow for effective heat reflection.
