How Much Heat Can TIRI Reflective Bubble Wrap Insulation Block?
TIRI Reflective Bubble Wrap Insulation can reflect up to 95–97% of radiant heat when
installed correctly with the recommended air gap. This significantly reduces heat transfer through roofs
and walls, helping keep buildings cooler during summer while improving overall energy efficiency.
Unlike conventional insulation materials that primarily slow conductive heat transfer, reflective bubble
insulation works by reflecting radiant heat before it enters the building. This makes it an effective
solution for industrial, commercial, agricultural, and residential applications where roofs are exposed to
direct sunlight.
Whether you're managing a warehouse, factory, PEB structure, commercial building, or home, choosing the
right insulation can improve indoor comfort while reducing cooling costs throughout the year.
How Does TIRI Reflective Bubble Wrap Insulation Work?
TIRI Reflective Bubble Wrap Insulation combines high-reflectivity aluminum foil with an insulating air
bubble layer to minimize radiant heat entering the building.
Its multi-layer construction includes:
o High-reflectivity aluminum foil
o Air bubble insulation layer
o Durable protective laminates (depending on the product variant)
This layered design reflects most of the sun's radiant heat while helping reduce overall heat transfer,
creating a more comfortable indoor environment.
Can TIRI Reflective Bubble Wrap Insulation Block All Heat?
No insulation material can block 100% of heat.
TIRI Reflective Bubble Wrap Insulation is specifically engineered to reflect up to 95–97% of
radiant heat, which is one of the primary sources of heat gain through metal roofs exposed to
sunlight.
Actual thermal performance depends on:
o Proper installation
o Roof design
o Ventilation
o Local climate conditions
o Maintaining the recommended air gap
Benefits of Reflecting Up to 95–97% Radiant Heat
By minimizing radiant heat gain, TIRI Reflective Bubble Wrap Insulation helps improve thermal comfort
and energy performance in a wide range of buildings.
Key benefits include:
o Keeps warehouses and factories cooler
o Improves indoor comfort in homes
o Reduces air-conditioner workload

Common applications include:
o Industrial warehouses
o PEB structures
o Manufacturing plants
o Commercial buildings
o Residential roofs
o Agricultural buildings
o Cold storage support structures
o Logistics facilities
Frequently Asked Questions
How much radiant heat does TIRI Reflective Bubble Wrap Insulation reflect?
TIRI Reflective Bubble Wrap Insulation reflects up to 95–97% of radiant heat when installed
according to the recommended installation guidelines.
Does reflective insulation reduce room temperature?
Yes. By reflecting radiant heat before it enters the building, it helps maintain a cooler indoor
environment, especially beneath metal roofs.
Can reflective bubble wrap insulation help save electricity?
Yes. By reducing heat gain, cooling systems often operate more efficiently, which can contribute to
lower electricity consumption.
Does it perform well in Indian summers?
Yes. It is specifically suited for hot climates where buildings experience intense solar radiation and
roof heat gain.
Is reflective insulation enough on its own?
For many metal roofing applications, reflective insulation provides excellent thermal performance. For
projects with specialized insulation requirements, it can also be combined with other insulation systems
as recommended by building professionals.
TIRI Reflective Bubble Wrap Insulation is engineered to provide reliable thermal performance for
residential, commercial, and industrial buildings.
With the ability to reflect up to 95–97% of radiant heat, it helps improve indoor comfort,
enhance energy efficiency, reduce cooling loads, and support long-term building performance when
installed correctly.
Whether you're constructing a new building or upgrading an existing roof, TIRI insulation offers a
practical solution for creating cooler, more energy-efficient spaces.
