Our take on the SmartSHIELD - 1/4 Inch Reflective Foam Insulation Roll - Foil / Foil

SmartSHIELD is a 6mm closed-cell polyethylene foam roll faced with foil on both sides. The foil surface reflects radiant heat while the foam slows conductive and convective transfer, and the closed cells make the roll waterproof and resistant to mold. It is aimed at DIYers insulating garages, attics, sheds, ducts and metal buildings, and it cuts with a utility knife and staples or glues in place. Against fiberglass batts it is thinner, cleaner to handle and vapor-tight, but it has no real mass, so it works best as a radiant barrier or in combination with other insulation rather than as the only layer in a cold climate.

Pros
  • Closed-cell foam is waterproof and resists mold
  • Foil on both faces reflects radiant heat
  • Class 1/Class A fire rating
  • Light and easy to cut, staple or glue
  • Comes in several roll widths and lengths
Cons
  • Thin foam adds little conductive R-value on its own
  • Foil faces tear and crease if handled roughly
  • Seams and edges need foil tape to stay vapor-tight
  • Not a substitute for bulk insulation in cold climates

What reviewers say

Owners use it mostly for garage doors, attics and outbuildings and report easier handling than fiberglass. Some find the stated R-value optimistic for their application and note the foil dents and tears during installation.

About the SmartSHIELD - 1/4 Inch Reflective Foam Insulation Roll - Foil / Foil

This is a 1/4 inch (6 mm) reflective foam insulation roll with foil on both sides. It has a closed-cell foam structure. It is waterproof and resists mold, so it keeps performing in moisture.

It is rated Class 1/Class A for fire resistance. Its R-value ranges from R-15.87 to R-21.50, which limits heat transfer and reduces heat loss from the interior.

Questions and answers

What R-value does this insulation give?
SmartSHIELD rates the 6mm roll at R-15.87 to R-21.50, which reflects radiant heat rather than bulk conductive resistance. Treat it as a radiant barrier and pair it with other insulation in cold climates.
Is it fire rated?
Yes. It carries a Class 1/Class A rating, with a flame index of 0 and smoke development of 15 under ASTM E-84.
Can it get wet?
The closed-cell foam is waterproof and does not promote fungal growth, so it suits damp sheds and metal buildings. Seal seams with foil tape to keep the barrier continuous.
How do I install it?
Cut it with a utility knife and staple, glue or tape it in place. Foil on both faces means either side can face the heat source.
What sizes does it come in?
Rolls come in 2ft, 3ft, 4ft and 6ft widths at 50ft long, plus a 4ft x 100ft roll.
Is it a substitute for fiberglass batts?
Not on its own. The foam is thin, so it works best as a radiant barrier over or behind bulk insulation rather than as the only layer.
