VIP - Vacuum Insulating
Panel
The Best Building Insulation Material on the Market
A super insulation material reaching R-30 per inch of thickness.
What is VIP?
Vacuum Insulating Panel (VIP) is a relatively new type of super insulation combining vacuum insulation technology and microporous insulation technology. The VIP consists of a porous nano-core material sealed in vacuum with a high-performance gas barrier skin. This construction dramatically reduces thermal conduction, convection and radiation, making it more efficient in insulative performance than nearly any other material. The finished product appearance is rectangular and flat, the outer skin feels slightly elastic and has a certain toughness, available with various barrier materials depending upon the end application.
