Celplast: A 2008 Vacuum Metallized Product
Winner -
AIMCAL |
|
| |
In the Industrial Category,
Celplast received the Technical Award for its Reflect-Met top-coated
metallized PET, which is used in AstroShield material, a low
emissivity product sold by Innovative Energy Inc., Lowell, Indiana,
for applications requiring reflective insulation or a radiant
barrier. Converted by Pregis Innovative Packaging Inc., Plymouth,
Indiana, and used primarily in building construction and remodeling,
the AstroShield options include
Reflect-Met/bubble/bubble/Reflect-Met, Reflect-Met/white bubble or
Reflect-Met/white bubble/white bubble. The coated metallized layer
helps the lamination meet water vapor transmission, strength,
thermal and fire performance requirements, while providing a
brightness similar to foil. In fact, the Reflect-Met layer meets
reflective insulation standards for moisture corrosion resistance
(ASTM D3310), vapor retarding (ASTM E-96), aged vapor retarding
(ASTM C1258) and emissivity less than or equal to 0.05 (ASTM C1371).
The coated metallized polyester also is significantly more
machinable than thin-gauge foil because its resists the tear-outs
and creasing that typically generate scrap rates ranging from 4% to
8% for foil laminations. Perhaps, most importantly, the Reflect-Met
metallized polyester meets pending changes to the ASTM E-84 flame
test, which will render laminations using an unprotected foil layer
unacceptable. Finally, the fiber-free lamination comes in
easy-to-handle rolls, requires no custom installation tools, and
eliminates the need for any special personal protection equipment.
Although insulation is a big market for metallized material, the
judges concluded, "We haven't seen anything like this with so many
technical attributes." The top coating is key because it protects
the metallization. The judges also viewed the material as safer in a
fire than foil laminations used for reflective insulation and
appreciated its proactive compliance with pending standards for
flame and smoke spread.
