In 1984 we found that bubble pack
wrapping could be used for swimming
pool covers. We added special polymers
to our plastic for strength and durability
and Solar Blanket was born.
In 1997 our team added a layer of
aluminum to our Solar Blanket that
increased its reflective value, increasing
heat retention. The Space Age[]* Solar
Blanket was born.
In 1999 our team set out to improve our
Space Age❑* Solar Blanket. We
understood that by decreasing the
space between cells, we could increase
the insulation factor. New templates
were created and Diamond Bubble❑*
was born. Shaping the cells like
diamonds instead of circles decreased
the space between cells and increased
the insulating effectiveness. And after
all, diamonds are a girl❑s best friend.
