RIMA International to Offer Reflective Insulation Seminar at METALCON 35
Virginia Beach, VA – With
all the economic challenges that the world is facing, energy efficiency
is certainly a top priority. The challenge is, you don’t know what you
don’t know, right? That’s why the Reflective Insulation Manufacturers Association International is conducting an educational workshop at the
upcoming METALCON Conference being held October 7-9 at the Orange County
Convention Center in Orlando, Florida.
RIMA International is helping to kickstart the event on an educational note by offering an educational session titled “Reflective
Insulation & Radiant Barriers in Metal Building Design: Solving
Real-World Thermal, Moisture, and Energy Challenges.” This program will be held on Wednesday, October 7th at noon and is hosted by industry experts Dante Ferrari, Philip Ramstack and Kelly Myers.
Metal
buildings present unique thermal and moisture challenges due to highly
conductive assemblies, wide temperature swings, and increasing
energy-efficiency requirements. Traditional insulation strategies alone
often fall short in controlling radiant heat transfer, condensation
risk, and long-term operational costs. This session will explore how
reflective insulation and radiant barrier systems are successfully used
in metal building construction to address real-world performance
challenges. Attendees will gain a clear understanding of radiant heat
transfer, condensation control strategies, and how reflective insulation
systems complement mass insulation in metal roofs, walls, and HVAC
applications. This session combines building-science fundamentals,
code-recognized applications, and real-world project examples to help
architects, engineers, contractors, and metal building professionals
make informed design and insulation decisions.
This
session is a must for anyone actively involved in the metal construction industry. Full program details and registration information can be found here: https://metalcon26.mapyourshow.com/8_0/sessions/session-details.cfm?scheduleid=27.
