Aluminium Foil Glass Cloth
Textile Technologies Europe Ltd supplies Aluminium Foil Glass Cloth manufactured from woven glass fibre fabric laminated with aluminium foil. This construction provides excellent radiant heat reflection whilst also creating an effective vapour barrier and thermal insulation facing.
Aluminium Foil Glass Cloth is widely used in removable insulation jackets, pipe insulation systems, thermal barriers, industrial heat shields and OEM thermal management applications where radiant heat reduction and energy efficiency are required.
Aluminised Film Glass Cloth
Textile Technologies Europe Ltd supplies Aluminised Film Glass Cloth engineered for applications requiring a lightweight and flexible reflective heat barrier. The aluminised film facing reflects a high percentage of radiant heat whilst maintaining good flexibility and ease of fabrication.
Aluminised Film Glass Cloth is commonly used in automotive heat shields, insulation systems, protective covers, thermal barriers and industrial equipment protection applications.
Steelshield®
Textile Technologies Europe Ltd supplies Steelshield®, a high performance heat reflective material designed for applications requiring both radiant heat protection and enhanced mechanical durability. Steelshield® combines reflective thermal barrier technology with robust reinforcement to provide long service life in demanding industrial environments.
Steelshield® is widely used in welding protection, industrial heat shielding, thermal barriers, equipment protection systems and environments exposed to sparks, abrasion and elevated temperatures.
ShieldTex®
Textile Technologies Europe Ltd supplies ShieldTex®, a specialist heat reflective textile developed for advanced thermal management applications. ShieldTex® provides excellent radiant heat reflection whilst remaining lightweight and flexible, making it suitable for applications where weight reduction and thermal performance are equally important.
ShieldTex® is commonly used in automotive heat management systems, aerospace applications, industrial insulation assemblies, thermal barriers and OEM thermal protection solutions.
Why Choose Heat Reflective Glass Cloth?
Heat reflective glass cloths are specifically engineered to reduce radiant heat transfer and improve thermal efficiency. By reflecting a significant proportion of radiant energy away from protected surfaces, these materials help lower surface temperatures, improve operator safety and extend the service life of surrounding components.
