What type of underfloor insulation is this?

Someone said there is an insulation product that looks like bubble wrap with foil laminated both sides. It is stapled to the underside of the floor joists. Is there such a thing? Or have I been misinformed? cheers.

yes there is foil based insulation. some of it is like silver bubble wrap.
last time i looked at it it was expensive for very little insulation value.

We installed that foil bubble wrap under floor in our last house. I can't say that it made much difference, except perhaps a moisture barrier? Prefer the thick, dense woolly stuff any day.
