Appliance
Bonded Logic Natural Fiber Appliance Insulation is made from post-consumer recycled denim that is thermally bonded to create a high-performance insulation. Natural Fiber Appliance Insulation offers superior sound absorption and thermal performance. It is treated with a non-toxic solution that actively inhibits the growth of mold, mildew, bacteria and fungi. This same treatment also acts as an excellent fire retardant, giving Bonded Logic's Natural Fiber Appliance Insulation a Class-A Fire Rating.
Uses
UltraTouch Natural Fiber Appliance Insulation is used primarily as an acoustical and thermal treatment for appliances to absorb unwanted noise from multiple sources and reduce heat gain or loss. This insulation can be used in but is not limited to large appliances such as dishwashers, clothes washers/dryers and refrigerators.
Product Features
- Excellent Noise Absorption
- Strong Thermal Protection
- No Itch or Skin Irritation
- Resists Microbial Growth
- Class-A Fire Rating
Adhesive Option
Bonded Logic Natural Appliance Insulation can be laminated with a PSA (Pressure Sensitive Adhesive) to one side of the insulation. The PSA has a clear plastic release liner that can be easily removed so the insulation can be securely adhered to most any surface eliminating the need for fasteners and spray adhesives.
