Why choose OMEGA
- Engineered for comfort -
Our advanced multi-foil insulation reflects heat back into your home and blocks cold from entering, creating a stable, comfortable temperature all year round.
- Aerospace technology -
Multi-layer reflective insulation was first perfected for spacecraft and satellites, where thin, ultra-efficient thermal blankets protect against extreme temperatures.
Today, we bring that same principle into your loft and roof – quietly working in the background to keep your home in its ideal climate.

why choose OMEGA
Real people. Real results.
“The upstairs used to feel icy in the evenings. Since OMEGA installed the multi-foil in our loft, the bedrooms hold the heat and the draught around the loft hatch has completely gone. The team were polite, tidy and explained everything clearly.”
“We noticed the difference within days. The heating isn’t running as long, and the house just feels… calmer. Wish we’d done it years ago.”

FAQs
Multi-layer foil insulation (also called reflective or multifoil insulation) is a modern insulation material made from many thin layers of reflective foil and insulating wadding. Instead of just slowing down heat loss like traditional materials, it reflects radiant heat back into your home and helps reduce heat loss through radiation, conduction, and convection.
Most insulation simply traps air or resists heat passing through it. Multi-layer foil insulation goes one step further:
🔥 It reflects heat back into your home, keeping warm air inside.
🛡️ The layers of foil act as a radiant barrier — similar to technology once used in aerospace — reflecting heat instead of letting it escape.
💨 The insulation also traps tiny pockets of air, adding extra resistance against heat flow.
In simpler terms: heat bounces back where you want it, instead of slipping out into the roof or walls.
It’s very versatile. You can use it in:
✔ Lofts and roof spaces
✔ Walls
✔ Suspended floors
✔ Around rafters or studs
✔ Garage roofs or extensions
Because it’s thin and flexible, it works especially well in places where traditional insulation would take up too much space.
Yes — when installed correctly, multi-layer foil insulation reduces heat loss, meaning your heating system doesn’t need to work as hard to maintain comfort. That can lead to noticeable savings on energy bills, especially during colder months.
They all have their place — but multi-layer foil insulation has some special advantages:
✨ It’s much thinner, so it doesn’t use up valuable space.
✨ It reflects radiant heat, not just slowing conduction.
✨ It’s lightweight and flexible, making it easier to install in awkward spaces without dust or fibres.
✨ Many products also act as a vapour barrier, helping to manage moisture.
That said, in some homes it’s used with traditional materials to meet building standards or achieve specific U-value targets.
It is possible for keen DIYers to install multi-layer foil insulation — it’s lightweight and comes in rolls that are easy to handle. However, correct installation matters:
🔹 Seams and overlaps must be properly sealed with foil tape
🔹 It often requires an air gap to reflect heat effectively
🔹 Care must be taken around electrical and structural elements
Because of these details, many people choose professional installation for the best performance and peace of mind.
Yes! Many multi-layer foil products include a vapour control layer that resists moisture and condensation, which can help prevent dampness and mould in roof and wall spaces.
When properly installed, multi-layer foil insulation is very durable and doesn’t degrade like some traditional materials. It doesn’t absorb moisture, sag, or lose performance over time, so once it’s in place, it’s there to stay and help save energy for many years.
Yes — many multi-layer foil products are made with recycled materials and help reduce the energy your home needs for heating and cooling. By improving energy efficiency, they can lower your carbon footprint over time too.
Quite the opposite — because it reflects heat in both directions, multi-layer foil insulation also helps keep unwanted heat out in summer and keeps warmth in during winter. This makes your home more comfortable year-round.
