Insulax® PET, maximum insulation for roofs and chimneys

Manufactured in ALUCOAT, Insulax® PET is lacquered aluminum laminated to a layer of PET, intended for use on roofs and chimneys.

Its low thickness, from 20 microns in aluminum and 23 microns of PET, offers great flexibility and it adapts to any shape and design of roof or chimney, covering the entire surface and avoiding holes without insulation that can cause dampness and leaks. In order to avoid leaks, it becomes a high quality insulation with high resistance to exposure, weather and sunlight.

Insulax® PET is also an excellent barrier against moisture, vapors and UV rays, and against any type of element that can damage building structures. It therefore provides the necessary protection to prevent leakage and short-term damage to buildings as well as other applications in ventilation ducts.

With a wide range of types of lacquer to choose, we guarantee the fulfillment of the expectations of our customers, as well as the final consumers, offering the product that best suits each need.

Insulax® PET, a product of high quality and unmatched performance.

aluNID® to become part of Hyperloop Pod Competition

aluNID® has become to a collaboration agreement with Valencia’s Polytechnic University to build an Hyperloop,that is currently being developed in USA. It is a mode of passenger and freight transportation that would propel a pod-like vehicle through a reduced-pressure tube that could potentially exceed airliner speeds. This high speed transport offers protection from weather conditions, safe from collisions, low consumption and  accumulation of energy. For example, Hyperloop may connect Madrid with Tangier in only 42 min, reaching a speed of 1200 km/h. It’s a new and unique way of transportation.

Valencia’s University has been one of the 300 classified all over the world to take part of Hyperloop’s Pod Competition by SpaceX, where they are manufacturing a prototype that will be exhibited by the end of August in California, with the American Purdue University. The high qualities of our aluminium honeycomb core, its stiffness and lightness makes aluNID perfect for the manufacture of the first Spanish Hyperloop’s chassis, that will be shown in California.
