Armacell´s products significantly contribute to global energy efficiency. In line with the innovative product portfolio worldwide, Armacell India has recently launched 2 products with focus on various industries. Armaflex Alu E is the latest offering from Armacell India which combines excellent fire performance with superior aesthetics and forms a complete insulation solution for ducting.

Armaflex AluE: superior performance Insulation for ducting solutions across industries Armaflex AluE is a highly flexible, fibre free insulation laminated with an embossed silver-colour foil for enhanced aesthetic and mechanical protection.

The closed cell insulation material with superior performance in fire safety and maintenance is used for the protection of HVAC ducts, especially in the clean room conditions of pharmaceuticals industries.

Aesthetic insulation coupled with durability is one of the major industry requirements today. For example, clean rooms are one of the most demanding applications in pharmaceutical industry where hygiene becomes the most important aspect of clean room application. Similarly, in construction or process industries as well, the ducts and pipes are visible and hence insulation applied on them should be easy to clean and aesthetically appealing. It should not retain any moisture and prohibit any possibility of microbial growth, and of course, conserve energy with minimum heat loss or gain.

Key features
• Pre-covered insulation with excellent aesthetics
• Low Thermal Conductivity, 0°C = 0.035 W/(m·K)
• Excellent Water vapour Diffusion Resistance, µ = 60,000
• Easy to clean and maintain
• Class 0 fire classification to BS 476 part 6 and 7
• Durable and high resistance to mechanical abuse

High performance Insulation with aesthetic covering
The traditional Aluminium-clad insulation products have always faced an ever existing problem of ugly dents, wrinkles and pockets. Thanks to the unique surface pattern, the Armaflex Alu E cleverly disguises most of the imperfections that may occur during installation. The cladding is embossed with Armaflex brand to avoid any counterfeiting which also lends an overall premium feel to the cladding. It’s highly flexible nature further aids fast and easy installation in technical sections.

Water vapour and humidity are one of the biggest hindrances in enabling thermal insulation. With water vapour diffusion resistance (µ) of 60000, Armaflex Alu E ensures that the insulating properties are retained in the most adverse conditions. Moreover, the surface can be wiped clean effortlessly which helps in keeping the fungi and microbes at bay, resulting in increased hygiene in the applied area.

Insulation with superior fire performance
In the unfortunate event of a fire breakout, the last thing anybody would want is propagation of the fire to the other sections of the building. Insulation materials are mostly at the forefront and exposed to fire in its early stage. The responsibility to arrest fire propagation naturally comes to insulation.
With compliance to strict norms laid down by building regulations, Armaflex Alu E has a big ace up its sleeve. It passes all the requirements of Class 1 as per BS476 Part 7 for surface spread of flame and class 0 as per BS476 Part 6 and meets fire category as per 1991 building regulations (England and Wales) and the building standards (Scotland) regulations 1990. Armaflex Alu E is a non-fibrous, non-itchy, easy-to-clean product. Hence, there is no probability of air contamination due to degradation of the insulation material over a period of time.
