Market Leading Performance
Our proprietary physical crosslinking technology creates finer, evenly distributed cellular structures. Cell structure directly impacts thermal conductivity and vapour permeability — the two core indicators that decide insulation efficiency.
CTF-Greenthermal maintains stable thermal performance for decades-long service life.
Thermal Conductivity
Boasting thermal conductivity of 0.032 W/mK (at average temperature 23°C), CTF-Greenthermal ranks among the highest-performance flexible insulation materials available.
At identical thickness, it delivers up to 20% superior insulation effect compared with conventional elastomeric foam and chemically crosslinked foam materials.
At identical thickness, it delivers up to 20% superior insulation effect compared with conventional elastomeric foam and chemically crosslinked foam materials.
Vapour Permeability
CTF-Greenthermal features nearly zero vapour permeability. This property stabilises its thermal conductivity for up to 10 years, greatly supporting sustainable building design and lowering long-term energy consumption.
Built for Durability
Multiple premium aluminium foil facings are available for CTF-Greenthermal, manufactured with top-quality raw materials to guarantee long-term reliable performance.
-
Pure Aluminium FoilIt serves as a reliable moisture barrier, stopping moisture intrusion to keep steady thermal performance. High surface reflectivity reduces thermal radiation and optimises energy efficiency.
-
Metalized Aluminium FoilLightweight with outstanding radiation reflection capability to limit heat transfer. Tear-resistant and robust, enabling convenient cutting and installation work.
-
Fiberglass-Reinforced Aluminium FoilFiberglass reinforcement greatly enhances tensile strength and structural stability. It withstands physical impact and retains form under diverse environments, fully protecting the insulation core and extending service life.thermal conductivity remains relatively consistent for 10 years. This characteristic significantly contributes to building sustainability and cuts down on energy costs.

XPE foam and EVA foam are both types of closed-cell foam materials commonly used in various industries.
Here are some differences between the two:
Fust, XPE foam and EVA foam can be visually distinguished by their appearance.
XPE foam has a more uniform, closed-cell structure with a smoother surface, while EVA foam has a more open-cell structure with a rougher surface. XPE foam is also typically thicker and denser than EVA foam.
Material Composition: XPE foam is made of cross-linked polyethylene foam, while EVA foam is made of ethylene vinyl acetate copolymer foam.
Density: XPE foam is generally denser and heavier than EVA foam.
Thickness: XPE foam is often thinner than EVA foam, but still provides good cushioning and shock absorption.
Water Absorption: XPE foam has low water absorption properties, while EVA foam can absorb water.
Durability: EVA foam is more durable than XPE foam, and is able to withstand repeated impacts and compression better.
Cost: XPE foam is usually more expensive than EVA foam due to its higher density and manufacturing process.
Both XPE foam and EVA foam can be recycled, but the recycling process may vary depending on the specific type and manufacturer.
In terms of being non-toxic and odorless, both XPE foam and EVA foam are generally considered safe for use. However, it’s important to note that some EVA manufacturers may use chemicals or additives in their foam production process that could potentially be harmful.
When it comes to environmental friendliness, XPE foam is generally considered more eco-friendly because it requires less energy to produce than EVA foam. XPE foam is also more resistant to moisture and temperature changes, which can make it last longer and reduce waste over time, further reducing its environmental impact.
Overall, both XPE foam and EVA foam have their own unique properties and benefits, and the choice between them may depend on the specific application and use case.
