Griffolyn® VaporGuard® is a remarkable 3-ply laminate designed to provide robust protection in a lightweight package. Its unique composition consists of an aluminum core sandwiched between two layers of multi-axially oriented HDPE/LLDPE, offering exceptional strength and durability.
This refers to the construction of the material. "3-ply" means there are three layers stacked on top of each other. In the case of Griffolyn® VaporGuard®, these layers consist of:
So, when we say Griffolyn® VaporGuard® is a "3-ply laminate designed to provide robust protection in a lightweight package," we're saying it's made of three layers (aluminum and two types of plastic) that are put together in a way that makes them strong and durable, while still being lightweight. This makes it effective at protecting whatever it's used to cover, while also being easy to handle and work with.
