PRODUCT NAME: Nu-Age Films® 4+High Performance Vapor Retarder

ISI BUILDING PRODUCTS401 Truck Haven Road, East Peoria Illinois 61611Phone: 866.698.6562 / Fax: 309.698.0065 / www.isibp.com

3.1 BASIC USENu-Age Films are uniquely enhanced high performance vapor retarders that exceed performance properties of conventional single layer polyethylene sheeting. Nu-Age Films 4+ surpasses 4-mil polyethylene sheeting requirements outlined in ASTM D 4397. Nu-Age Films are used as multi-purpose high performance vapor retarders for numerous construction, industrial and agricultural applications. Nu-Age Films 4+ delivers excellent impact resistance, tensile strength and elongation for demanding vapor retarder and protective covering applications.

3.2 COMPOSITION & MATERIALSNu-Age Films are tri-layer extruded films manufactured and engineered using a distinct virgin resin formulation. The tri-layer extrusion uses separate extruders to produce different layers of polymers. The layers join together, in the liquid state, just before they are extruded. The tri-layer manufacturing is desirable as it takes the best properties of different resins and links them together. The film structure is then engineered to perform better than it’s individual parts.

Nu-Age Films 4+ is a lighter weight roll with increased product performance all while maintaining long term stability.

3.3 SIZENu-Age Films are available in roll sizes ranging from 8 to 20 feet wide by 100 feet in length. Special roll lengths are available upon request.

3.4 WEIGHTApproximately 6.24 lbs. per 1,000 sq. ft. at .0013 inches (33.02 μ) thick.

3.5 BENEFITS -Unrivaled material solution -Made from premium grade virgin resin -Enhanced performance -State-of-the-art one-of-a-kind technology -Lighter weight for ease of installation -Outperforms 4-mil poly per ASTM D 4397 -Multi-use for construction, industrial and agricultural applications -Superior value without forfeiting quality
