Insulation facings
are a vital part of the total insulation system. In particular,
vapor retarders must be used with proper building ventilation
to control concealed condensation. In addition, they contribute
aesthetic value to a construction project while meeting performance
standards such as moisture migration control, light reflectivity
and added material strength. Alpha Associates manufactures a full
range of high-quality facings for metal building insulation and
was the first to develop a paperless vapor retarder that meets
industry permeability standards.
NOTE: Alpha metal-building-insulation facings are produced with
plastic films containing ultraviolet (UV) inhibitors. However,
intense exposure to UV sources such as direct or indirect sunlight
and/or high-output UV lighting is not recommended. Intense UV
exposure will degrade the plastic film facing. The information
provided in this documentation corresponds to our knowledge on
