WMP-30 facing is often selected when the insulation may be exposed to additional wear and tear.
The WMP-30 is thicker and stiffer than the WMP-10; therefore, in tight or complex installations, it can be harder to work with.

WMP-50 vinyl-faced insulation is the ideal choice for high-abuse areas that require extra durability.
The metalized polyester back allows it to reflect some radiant heat away from the structure.
The WMP-50 is thicker and stiffer than the WMP-30; therefore, in tight or complex installations, it can be harder to work with.

Silver-Reinforced Facing – High Flame Resistance
FSO’s Silver-Reinforced facing is priced 7% higher than VR-R (plus). Please keep in mind that there is a “plain foil facer” available that we don’t sell. It’s more of a radiant barrier, not reinforced, and typically faces the outside environment. Our Silver-Reinforced facing faces the conditioned space (inside) just like VR-R (plus) would. Made in the same sizes/widths as VR-R (plus), so would have the same tab configuration options. It is used for higher flame resistance.
Standard Roll Dimensions
Standard Widths: 4′, 5′, and 6′. Length: 16′-100′. Standard Tabs: 2-3″ or 1-6″.
- Custom Widths: 2′ width, tabs will be 2-9″. For 3’width, 2-3″ tabs. There will be an added cut charge equivalent to approximately 1′ of wider insulation.
- Customer Width: 8′ width is available only with the WMP-30. There is an additional $0.04 per sq. ft above the listed WMP-30 posted pricing. 2-5″ tabs.

Tape and Banding for Vinyl faced Fiberglass Insulation
Tape, banding, and screws will match the color of the chosen insulation facing. List desired items on the order form.
Double-sided tape: This tape is typically used before the sheeting is installed. It temporarily secures the insulation until the sheeting is installed.
Path Tape: Is used to repair tears and to seal gaps, joints, and seams, ensuring a continuous thermal barrier.
Insul-Hold: These hangers will keep the heavier vinyl-faced insulation R-values from sagging in the cavity over time. In smaller spaces, fiberglass can friction fit, and sometimes tape is all that is needed…But we always recommend at least one tek screw with a washer through the facing and into the girt/purlin flange. Tape tends to attract dust and can reduce its grip over time; therefore, problems can arise if it’s the only means of holding
Banding: This is usually purchased when installing vinyl faced insulation in a retrofit application. It is used to prevent the insulation from sagging and shifting.
Band Screws: The Tek 3/4″ are used to secure the banding straps. Stretch banding across the vinyl faced insulation and attach it to the steel framing with screws. Washers are not included.
All insulation types have their market niche, as well as pros and cons. Factory Steel Overstock could offer every insulation type; however, it to offers what the most cost-effective insulation for metal buildings and pole barns, which in fiberglass vinyl faced insulation.
Fiberglass Vinyl faced Insulation vs Spray Foam
COST:
One of the most expensive insulation options on the market is Spray foam. Unlike fiberglass, which is a popular DIY material due to its ease of installation, spray foam is far more labor-intensive and usually requires professional application. With a metal building, a layman simply rolls the vinyl-faced insulation over the purlins and girts, then pins it down while installing the sheeting material. Although Spray Foam may offer a higher per square foot thermal efficiency than fiberglass viny faced, one has to consider the additional initial investment required.
HEALTH FACTORS:
One must also consider that the chemicals used in spray foam can release toxic gases if not installed properly. That is not an issue with fiberglass vinyl-faced insulation. It is imperative that one verifies that the space being insulated is well-ventilated and that all safety measures are implemented during installation.
EXPANSION:
Fiberglass Vinyl-faced insulation is not going to expand; however, the nature of spray foam is to expand as it cures. This can sometimes lead to unwanted pressure on drywall and framing if not closely watched during installation.
Fiberglass Vinyl-faced Insulation vs Reflective
Effectiveness in Cold Climates
Reflective insulation is designed to reflect radiant heat away from your metal building or pole barn; therefore, it is an ideal insulation type in hot climates. Its primary purpose is to keep your structure cool; however, most locations require insulation to address climate conditions for all seasons. In other words, an insulation that also deals with winter temperatures. Reflective insulation has a limited ability to resist heat flow, which makes it less effective in cold climates. For this reason, fiberglass vinyl-faced insulation is a more practical choice.
Airspace Installation Requirements
Simply put, reflective insulation requires a gap to be effective, and there are situations where this may be a challenge during installation. This is not a requirement with Fiberglass Vinyl-faced insulation.
Although all insulation types have their market niche, pros and cons, fiberglass vinyl-faced insulation is the most preferred type for DIY projects. Questions, call 1-888-512-1116.

Reflective “Barrier” Insulation
“I have been a part of two orders and now working on my third…” Dave Muniz
Although fiberglass insulation is overall a better thermally efficient insulation product for locations with cold and hot climate conditions, reflective insulation can be an effective radiant barrier in exclusively hot climates. Factory Steel Overstock offers a radiant, vapor, and air barrier reflective insulation that is far superior to bubble insulation.

What IF someone told you…
…there was a vinyl-faced insulation and metal building company that transparently disclosed its actual wholesale cost? Then it would let the general public determine the profit instead of relying on commission-based salespeople. Moreover, there would be “NO” additional costs beyond the selected profit amount plus applicable taxes. Furthermore, customers may pay the wholesale price directly to the certified manufacturer, with the seller receiving only the profit.
Would you believe them?
Factory Steel Overstock (FSO) has a 15-year track record of delivering everything listed above!
Its higher-conscious approach—empowering consumers with pricing power by entrusting them to determine a fair profit amount—was developed by a 40-year industry veteran and practicing Spiritual Practitioner.
In return, for treating the customer as it would itself, 100% of FSO’s new business comes from referrals, repeat customers, and organic searches.
That said, the cost-plus program was created for an informed, honest, and prepared buyer. Anyone who is dishonest or attempts to misuse the opportunity will be banned from ordering.
