Aluminized Structure Wrap
Save your house and car with FireGuard Aluminzed Structure Wrap
The use of fire-resistant fabric, known as Aluminized Structure Wrap (ASW) to shield against wildfires is a well proven and effective technique. The aluminum surface reflects more than 95% of radiant heat while the inflammable heat-resistant fabric provides thermal insulation. Therefore, the combined effect is to prevent the structure from reaching ignition temperature when exposed to intense external heat from a wildfire.
