    Any views on both of these for use in attics/lofts or dormer partitions.
    Sprayfoam can be applied at various thicknesses, ie 100mm or 150mm.
    Superquilt is just approx. 10-12mm thick, consisting of multiple layers of tin foil with layers of insulation sandwiched in-between.
    Both very popular in USA/Canada but how they fare in the damp Irish climate.?

    Hi welcome to the C&P forum, This was covered to death a few years ago, just use the search function.

    There are inconsistencies in both products between what installers will tell you and what the product certification/testing data sheets state.

    I would stay clear of the foil based products and only use the foam of into rely necessary.
