Bluedec

Bluedec is a flexible, nanoporous aerogel blanket insulation that reduces energy loss while conserving interior space in residential and commercial building applications. Its extremely low thermal conductivity, superior flexibility, compression resistance, hydrophobicity, and ease of use make it essential for those seeking the ultimate in thermal protection.

Using patented nanotechnology, Bluedec insulation combines a silica aerogel with reinforcing fibers to deliver industry-leading thermal performance in an easy-to-handle and environmentally safe product. It is a proven, effective insulator in building applications, providing the highest R-value of any insulation material for maximum energy efficiency in walls, floors, roofs, framing, and windows.

Bluedec insulates against heat and cold 2 to 8 times better than any other conventional insulation material. This means that much less material is needed to obtain the same insulation value. Because it is so thin, it can also be used in difficult places. Furthermore, it is flexible, making it extremely easy to use and it is additionally easy to cut or to trim.

Environmentally friendly, Bluedec is water repellent but also vapour permeable. This material is also durable over time, making it reusable. Thicknesses available are: 0.20 in (5 mm) and 0.40 in (10 mm). Its maximum use temperature is 390°F (200°C) and its colour is white. Bluedec has a density of 9.4 lb/ft3 and is available in widths of 1,450 mm.
