A vinyl film vapor barrier called UltrafilmTM, introduced by Stauffer Chemical Co., itARcH, t970 has been rated the lowest smoke generator of any industrial facing now on the market, according to combustion tests conducted by Underwriters' Labs., Inc.
Laminated to fiber glass batting, Ultrafilm forms the interior surface of insulating material used in pre-engineered metal buildings. The vapcr barrier prevents moisture from seeping into the insulating material and reducing its efficiency.
Besides its low rate of smoke generation, Ultrafilm has a low flame spread rating of 15 and a low propagation factor with no burning riroplets that would spread fire.
Ultrafilm performs well at low temperatures and, because of its layflat, can be faced more easily. Laminators can run their facing equipment at much higher speed with virtually no wrinkling of the film.
It is available in white, grey and green in widths of 40, 52, and, 76".
