Unlike glasswool products that can be itchy and irritating, polyester insulation is non-irritant, non-toxic and comfortable to handle, making installation an easy process. Polyester insulation is considered non-allergenic as it contains no breathable particles making it the perfect choice for home owners where asthma or other severe dust allergies are a concern.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003ePolymax™ Insulation Thermal Properties\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eBradford Polymax insulation batts provide thermal comfort to your home by minimising heat transfer through walls, ceiling and underfloor. Summer heat gains and winter heat losses can fluctuate temperatures within your home, thus increasing your energy usage as you rely solely on heating and air conditioning units to maintain the temperature within you home. By insulating your home with Bradford Polymax, you could cut your cooling and heating bills by up to half and enjoy excellent long-term thermal control.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003ePolymax Insulation Acoustic Properties\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eBradford Polymax acoustic batts can reduce noise transfer within the home by up to 40% and also provides thermal comfort. Bradford Polymax acoustic batts have a higher density which enables them to absorb and deflect sound to keep noise levels at an appropriate level within the home. Acoustic batts are ideal for use on external walls, to reduce noise upset from traffic, aircraft and neighbours and internal walls, to reduce noise from home theatres, noisy kids, and music playing etc. \u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eBradford Polymax range include;\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e• Bradford Polymax acoustic wall batts\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e• Bradford Polymax thermal wall batts\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e• Bradford Polymax ceiling batts\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"pw-cmedia\" style=\"display: grid; grid-template-columns: repeat(auto-fit,minmax(220px,1fr)); gap: 14px; margin: 22px 0;\"\u003e\n\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1073\/8070\/3564\/files\/buy-autex-greenstuf-polyester-insulation-batts-4.jpg?v=1788257363\" alt=\"buy autex greenstuf polyester insulation batts 4\" loading=\"lazy\" style=\"width: 100%; border-radius: 10px; display: block;\"\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1073\/8070\/3564\/files\/bradford-insulation-soundscreen-gold-batts-bradford-black-optimo.jpg?v=1788257362\" alt=\"bradford insulation soundscreen gold batts bradford black optimo\" loading=\"lazy\" style=\"width: 100%; border-radius: 10px; display: block;\"\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"bradford-polymax-wall-insulation","title":"Bradford Polymax Wall Insulation Batts","description":"\u003ch2\u003eBradford Polymax™ Polyester Thermal and Acoustic Wall Insulation by CSR Bradford\u003c\/h2\u003e \u003cp\u003eBradford Polymax \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/thermal-insulation\"\u003ethermal insulation\u003c\/a\u003e is designed to maximise comfort and lower energy bills. \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/polymax\"\u003eBradford Polymax\u003c\/a\u003e helps to reduce heat transfers through the \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/wall-insulation\"\u003ewalls\u003c\/a\u003e, \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/ceiling-insulation\"\u003eceiling\u003c\/a\u003e and \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/underfloor-insulation\"\u003efloor\u003c\/a\u003e or residential and commercial buildings and offices.

A key difference between glasswool and polyester is that polyester insulation contains no breathable fibres and is soft and easy to handle. Unlike glasswool which is cut with a knife, polyester insulation is often torn to size. Polyester is the preferred solution for allergy sufferers, although it comes at a much higher cost. Polymax is more expensive to manufacture and bulkier to transport, especially to regional areas in Australia. Check out our \u003ca href=\"\/pages\/warehouse-pickup\"\u003edelivery information\u003c\/a\u003e page for the latest prices.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch2\u003e100% Reusable Polyester Insulation\u003c\/h2\u003e \u003cp\u003eBradford Polymax is made from the same material as used in pillow and doonas, is low allergen and produces no VOC emissions.

The effectiveness of insulation is measured by the R-value not the thickness. The higher the R-value, the better the thermal performance of the insulation. Bradford Polymax Thermal Wall Batts are available in R2.0 and are designed to fit within the standard 90mm joists of Australian homes. To maximise the effectiveness of your insulation we recommend a holistic design approach.
