IMHO Posted February 18, 2015 Share Posted February 18, 2015 http://www.roseburg.com/Product/roseburg-radiant-barrier-plywood/ Have never seen this in TH, no. We don't do plywood and shingle roofs here - so no need for it I guess. There is a huge range of straight radiant barrier material available though, and you can get foil-backed gypsum. You're not really doing an American style roof in TH are you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
canopy Posted February 21, 2015 Share Posted February 21, 2015 It seems almost all roof types in Thailand are designed to go on battens. You can find some shingle types where you would be better off with plywood rather than battens like Ayara tiles, but Thai's will still use battens for them. If you do use plywood for anything, first think long and hard how you will deal with termites. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most of the suff sold here is only used for concrete forms, and delaminates pretty easily. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StefanBBK Posted February 22, 2015 Share Posted February 22, 2015 There is plenty of the radiant foil insulation about. Works well. Plywood is very risky for termites and as well extreme humidity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
