Afghan Insulation Maker Buys 8011-O Aluminum Foil Roll 0.014x920mm from Our Factory
Henan Yongsheng Aluminum Industry Co., Ltd. supplies 8011-O aluminum foil roll, 0.014 mm × 920 mm, matte outside / bright inside, to a roofing waterproof insulation manufacturer in Afghanistan who laminates the foil into foil-faced waterproof membranes. The customer was referred by another Afghan buyer already running our foil: after seeing the quality his friend received, he placed a full 40 ft container order directly, and came to our plant for inspection once production was completed.
Client Background
The client produces roofing waterproof aluminum foil insulation for residential and industrial roofing in Afghanistan. Foil is laminated to foam or bitumen and formed into boards, so a pinhole, gauge drift or weight shortage only shows up after lamination, when the batch is committed. A landlocked route with long transit leaves little chance to inspect goods before arrival. This account came as a referral from an existing Afghan customer: after seeing the clean surface, accurate weight and stable roll build his friend received, the new buyer skipped the trial cycle and ordered a 40 ft container directly. Production was completed first; he then travelled to our factory to inspect the goods and weigh every roll himself before loading.

Key Quality Features
- Matte outside, bright inside: The matte face gives a high-surface-energy side for adhesive, bitumen and foam lamination, while the bright face gives the reflective look required on the exposed side.
- Stable 0.014 mm gauge: Thickness is held inside a narrow band across the full roll length, so laminating and slitting run without thin spots or scrap.
- Fully annealed O temper: Maximum ductility lets the foil pass through laminating, embossing, folding and forming at 14 micron without cracking or edge tearing.
- Pinhole-free, oil-free surface: Clean matte and bright faces without pinholes, stains or roll marks — essential for waterproof membranes, where one pinhole becomes a leak path.
- Stable roll build: Heavy-duty cores, uniform tension and straight edges keep 920 mm rolls stable at high unwinding speeds and prevent telescoping during sea transit.
- Black steel-strapped export packing: Rolls are wrapped and reinforced with black steel strapping on sturdy pallets, protecting the foil from crush, moisture and handling damage inland.
- Factory-direct cost advantage: Foil is cast-rolled, annealed and slit in our own plant and sold without middlemen, keeping landed cost competitive in Afghanistan.
Project Results
- The customer ordered a full 40 ft container of 0.014 × 920 mm 8011-O foil on the strength of the quality seen at a fellow Afghan buyer's plant, without a trial order.
- Once production was completed the customer came to our factory, where every roll was weighed individually in his presence — accurate net weight, no shortage on any roll.
- The visit also covered matte/bright surface checks, gauge verification, roll edges and steel-strapped packing.
Client Feedback
The client expressed strong satisfaction with both the quality and the price of our 8011-O aluminum foil roll. He highlighted the accurate net weight of every roll, the clean matte and bright surfaces, the consistent 0.014 mm gauge and the solid steel-strapped packing. Coming on a fellow Afghan buyer's recommendation, he confirmed the delivered quality matched what he had seen at his friend's plant, and said the open factory inspection and roll-by-roll weighing gave him confidence to place repeat orders. He also relies on per-batch PQC and TDS, third-party inspection (SGS, BV, Intertek) and live video audits.
