It is made from high density polyethylene fibres and has a similar feel to paper with a high strength to weight ratio. See www.bushwalk.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=53&t=23794&mobile=on for a discussion on the difference.

61g per square metre, white.
$20 per metre for BTF members.
$25 per metre for non-members.Technical data sheet available at https://insulation.com.au/data-sheet-download?pid=4459.
