Product Features
Proven Performance
Delivering proven strength against air erosion testing at over 170 miles/hour — 15,000 ft./min. — for trusted temperature and sound control in metal ducts.
Quality Design
Built with a tough, tightly bonded mat facing, this liner is fire-resistant, non-corrosive, durable and resilient. Designed to withstand damage from normal handling and shop abuse.
ECOSE® Technology
Our patented, bio-based binder is a smarter alternative to using phenol formaldehyde. It’s been foundational in our commitment to sustainability.
