Fiberglass & Glasswool Insulation
Fiber Glass Tissue / Reinforcement Protection Tissue
Fiber glass tissue is a lightweight fiberglass-based material used in suitable reinforcement, protection and insulation-system applications. Also known as Reinforcement Protection Tissue or RP Tissue, it can form part of selected composite and insulation constructions.
Product Overview
Fiber Glass Tissue for Reinforcement & Protection
Fiber glass tissue is a thin fiberglass-based material designed for applications where reinforcement, surface protection or a lightweight fibrous layer is required.
It is also referred to as Reinforcement Protection Tissue and RP Tissue in certain insulation and composite applications.
The material can be incorporated into selected insulation constructions, protective layers and composite systems depending on the required product specification and end use.

Understanding RP Tissue
What Is Reinforcement Protection Tissue?
Fiber glass tissue and RP tissue are terms used for fiberglass tissue materials selected for reinforcement and protective-layer applications.
Lightweight Fiberglass Layer
Fiber glass tissue provides a thin fibrous layer that can be incorporated into suitable insulation, reinforcement and composite constructions.
Reinforcement Protection Tissue
RP Tissue is commonly used as a product description where fiberglass tissue is intended to provide reinforcement or protection within a specified system.
Product Characteristics
Key Characteristics of Fiber Glass Tissue
Fiberglass Construction
Manufactured from fiberglass material in a lightweight tissue format.
Lightweight Format
The thin tissue structure can be suitable where a lightweight reinforcement layer is required.
Reinforcement
Can be incorporated into suitable systems where additional reinforcement is required.
Protection Layer
Can be used as part of selected protective-layer constructions and insulation systems.
Applications
Applications of Fiber Glass Tissue
The appropriate tissue specification depends on the intended application, construction method and performance requirements.
Insulation Systems
Used as part of selected insulation constructions and protective layers.
Reinforcement
Can be incorporated into suitable systems where lightweight fiberglass reinforcement is required.
Surface Protection
Suitable tissue products can be considered for selected protective-layer applications.
Composite Applications
Fiberglass tissue may form part of selected composite constructions.
Building Materials
Can be considered for suitable building-material and insulation-related applications.
Industrial Applications
Used in selected industrial systems where fiberglass tissue is specified.
Insulation Applications
Fiber Glass Tissue in Insulation Systems
Fiber glass tissue can be selected as a component of an insulation system rather than as the primary insulation material itself.
Select the Tissue for the System
The correct tissue should be matched to the material it will be combined with, the installation process and the required performance of the completed system.
Insulation Surface
Consider whether the tissue is being applied directly to an insulation surface or incorporated within a composite construction.
Reinforcement Requirement
Determine the level and type of reinforcement required by the final system.
Protective Requirement
Confirm whether the tissue is intended to provide a protective layer or support another surface treatment.
Compatibility
Confirm compatibility between the tissue, adhesive, coating, insulation or composite material used in the system.

Selection Guide
How to Select Fiber Glass Tissue
Start With the End Application
Fiber glass tissue selection should be based on the complete system rather than only the tissue name. Application, construction method and required specifications should be considered together.
Identify the End Use
Determine whether the tissue is required for insulation, reinforcement, protection or composite construction.
Confirm Dimensions
Specify the required roll width, length and quantity.
Confirm Tissue Specification
Provide the required basis weight and other relevant technical requirements.
Check Compatibility
Confirm compatibility with the insulation, adhesive, coating or composite system.
Confirm Project Quantity
Share the approximate quantity required for the application or project.
