Melinex is available as a factory applied system. A dimensionally stable polyester film with high tensile strength. Melinex offers good resistance to tearing, temperature, and attack by most common chemicals and solvents, without greatly restricting the acoustic performance of the material which it encloses.
Used in facing of mineral fibre and foam insulations for a variety of reasons, e.g. Acoustic insulation above perforated and slotted ceiling, sound absorption in the air conditioning systems, various thermal insulation applications etc. Particularly good when a high degree of resistance to chemicals and/or solvents is required.
