Abstract
A faced insulation assembly has a facing sheet with a central field portion that overlays and is bonded to a major surface of the insulation layer. The sheet has two lateral tabs that are joined to the central field portion of the sheet along fold lines. The tabs are folded back to overlay the central field portion of sheet. The fold lines may include score lines or weld lines to help maintain the tabs in the folded position for handling. The tabs have tab strips bonded thereto that may be bonded to the tabs by a pressure sensitive adhesive whereby the tabs may be left in the folded position, unfolded for stapling to framing members, or have the tab strips removed for bonding to framing members either in a folded or an unfolded position.
