Pink closed cell foam insulation?

[ElephantEgo]

I was recommended this type of material to insulate against condensation on walls which forms due to a temperature differential. Does anyone know about this type of material and where to get it?

You need Owens Corning fibre glass insulation. It is trademarked as pink. Since 1987.

Probably from someone not in Thailand? AFIK it is unobtainable here.

Owens Corning® FOAMULAR® & FOAMULAR® NGX™ THERMAPINK® Extruded Polystyrene (XPS) Insulation is a closed cell, moisture resistant
rigid foam board

When developpers and house builders have no idea or just don't care for a specific request, they plainly lie and say "not available in Thailand".

Fiberglass is the best but rarely used in Thailand.

Fibre glass is never foamed, and is not polystyrene 

 

while you may have butter fingered and messed up that is what you posted.

That is unbelievably wrong, this is the first product of hundreds of examples https://www.homepro.co.th/p/213895

Every store that sells insulation has it and it is probably the most used material.

Please read again, I said if its pink it will be Owens Corning. I mentioned the year the color pink was Trademarked.   Pink = Owens Corning was my point.

Re-read exactly what you said and not what you thought you said. What you seem to have meant was not what you wrote.

 

”You need Owens Corning fibre glass insulation. It is trademarked as pink”

 

in that sentence “It’ is referring to the subject you just referred to and that was “Owens Corning fibre glass insulation” that you also mentioned the trade mark date is an interesting titbit but adds little extra.

 

The question was asking about closed cell foam you suggested a totally different product, it is quite probable that fibre glass is a better product 
 

I have no idea if Owens Corning fibre glass insulation is actually trademarked as Pink and but that was your claim

Why do you post such completely inaccurate information and expect not to be called out on it?
