Chris;

Do you mean something like "Thermax" -- rigid polyisocyanurate foam  
sandwiched between  shiny aluminum foil skins ?

http://www.dow.com/styrofoam/na/thermax/
(The last time I used this stuff it was made by a company called  
"Celotex". It now appears to be part of the Dow Chemical megalith.)

Or do you mean something like "Zero-Loc" -- rigid EPS or polyurethane foam  
sandwiched between sheet steel or sheet aluminum skins ?
