TUFF-R

Featuring the highest thermal insulation value of any foam sheathing currently available, Tuff-R™ distributed by DCTech is a closed cell polyisocyanurate (PIR) foam core sandwiched between two durable, aluminium foil exterior facers. The first is a continuous sheet of aluminium foil, the other is aluminium foil-Kraft paper-aluminium foil. Air cannot penetrate the facers, which also minimises water and water vapour intrusion into the polyisocyanurate foam insulation core, and allows the foam R-value to stabilise at a higher value. Tuff-R™ thermal insulation can be easily applied to a variety of substrates.

Tuff-R™ thermal insulation is a rigid board, manufactured with a HFC blowing agent, which has zero ozone depletion potential (ODP) than standard CFC/HCFC blowing agents and is Green Star Compliant.

Applications

  • Car park soffits (not exposed), concrete roofs
  • Tuff-R is not compliant in exposed applications where AS ISO 9705 determined group classification is required.  Examples are where required by Melbourne Fire Brigade or buildings approved under the NCC 2015.
  • Double brick wall, cavity wall, double cavity precast wall, masonry wall external
  • Underside of slab
