SuperFOIL Insulation has secured its first British Board of Agrément (BBA) approval for the performance of its Multi Foil roof, wall and floor insulation products.

Its range of multifoil products landed the award following a rigorous two-year assessment.

The BBA is the UK's leading independent assessment body for the construction industry when it comes to third-party approvals, certification and test services.

SuperFOIL's insulation is produced from 40% recycled materials and has a life expectancy of more than 50 years with a GWP rating of 3.


All the Multi Foil range is 1200MNs/g vapour resistant. Recently, the company's SF40 Multi Foil insulation was chosen by Herefordshire Housing Association for a £3.5m project to improve the energy efficiency of around 5,800 homes and the insulation was used for the conversion of a Grade II listed police station and courthouse in Corwen, Wales.

The BBA accreditation means SuperFOIL customers can now get building regulation applications approved without delay for their Multi Foil products, avoiding potentially costly delays or missed deadlines on site.

Will Bown, managing director of SuperFOIL, said: "Getting this BBA has been a real test for every part of our business, but rightly so where building safety and performance is concerned. The expectation level for BBA is so high that it's impossible to achieve without passing the most stringent of standards at every stage.

"Now we're officially BBA-approved, our customers can feel confident that when they choose SuperFOIL, not only can they avoid delays and extra costs, but they get the most certified product on the market too."
