As a multi-layer reflective wall insulation, VR Plus Shield™ enhances enclosed cavity air space, stopping up to 97% of radiant heat transfer. This unique insulation has multiple Low-e layers that expand within the cavity to create three (3) reflective air spaces. Gain up to R-7.1 on minimum 1-1/2″ framing for a higher-performance wall system.

An easy upgrade from R-4.1 insulation to help builders qualify for DOE New Energy Efficient Home Tax Credits. Cost-effective and remarkably easy to install, this powerful multi-layer Low-e technology boosts R-value by utilizing less cavity air space—allowing for a slimmer wall system to provide you with more sellable square footage in zones 1 & 2.
