Polypropylene insulation cotton is an efficient thermal insulation material made of polypropylene fiber.
Key Features
Excellent Thermal Insulation: Effectively reduces building energy consumption and improves energy efficiency.
Lightweight & Soft: Lighter and softer than traditional insulation materials, easy to install, and saves labor costs.
High Durability: Offers anti-aging performance and long service life, resistant to deformation.
Sample Availability: Custom basis weight samples and third-party testing data available upon request.
Applications
Building Insulation: Suitable for exterior walls and roof insulation, significantly improving overall thermal performance.
Industrial Equipment: Applied in pipes, tanks, and other equipment for thermal protection and process stability.
Apparel Insulation: Soft, breathable, and hydrophobic, ideal as a thermal lining material for garments.

What are Clo and Rcf?
Clo (Clothing Insulation Value): A unit to measure thermal insulation. 1 Clo ≈ the insulation provided by a typical business suit at 21℃, 50% RH, with still air.
Higher Clo = better warmth retention.
Reference examples: A light summer outfit (short-sleeve shirt with shorts) typically provides about 0.3–0.4 Clo, while a thick winter down jacket usually falls between 0.5–0.7 Clo.
Rcf (Relative Clo Factor / Resistance per unit thickness): Indicates how effective the insulation is per unit thickness.
Helps compare materials of different thickness fairly.
Higher Rcf = more efficient insulation per cm thickness.
Interpretation: In the test results above, ACME Insulation shows Clo 0.52 and Rcf 0.081, while the competitor shows Clo 0.40 and Rcf 0.062. → This means ACME's insulation provides both better overall warmth and higher efficiency per thickness.
Technical Information
PP insulation cotton is made of high-quality polypropylene through melt-blown technology and fine structure design, ensuring stable and efficient thermal insulation. Current performance can reach up to Clo. 1.5 level.
