If you’re building or renovating a home or commercial space in Australia, sisalation insulation should be high on your list. At Flipside Insulation, we specialise in the professional supply and installation of sisalation wrap, helping protect your property from extreme temperatures, moisture, and dust—all while improving energy efficiency.
In this article, we’ll break down what sisalation is, how it works, and why Flipside Insulation is your trusted partner for sisalation insulation installation across Victoria.
What Is Sisalation Insulation?
Sisalation is a reflective foil insulation that acts as a radiant barrier. It is typically made from a layer of reflective foil bonded to kraft paper or woven fabric. This type of insulation is installed in walls, under roofs, and sometimes beneath floors to:
- Reflect radiant heat away during summer
- Help retain warmth during winter
- Minimise dust and moisture penetration
- Improve the performance of other insulation products
It’s an essential component in meeting Australian building insulation standards.
Why Professional Sisalation Installation Is Essential
Although sisalation might look straightforward to install, doing it right makes all the difference. Incorrect installation can lead to condensation build-up, gaps in thermal protection, and wasted energy costs.
At Flipside Insulation, we follow Australian building codes and manufacturer guidelines to ensure:
✅ Precise overlap and sealing
✅ Moisture barriers are intact
✅ No gaps or sagging
✅ Integration with other insulation layers
✅ Compliance certificates issued for every job
Where Is Sisalation Used?
We install sisalation foil insulation across both residential and commercial properties, including:
- Roof spaces (under metal and tile roofs)
- Wall cavities (particularly in timber or steel-framed buildings)
- Underfloor areas (for raised floors)
- Garages and sheds
It’s especially effective in hot climates like Melbourne’s summer, where radiant heat is a major concern.
