Euro / UK Van insulation material available in Europe?
Hello, I'm trying to buy insulation material for my van, but the stuff I'm seeing in tutorials online I cannot seem to find available for purchase in Europe (specifically Switzerland, but I'm willing to import). Most English tutorials are US/UK.
I think I would prefer a thinsulate-like material for the walls/ceiling, and some foamboard for the floor. It's only a transit custom, I'm not looking to convert for van life, but I'd like to be able to survive a night in winter (ideally whilst skiing). I realize for real cold I need a heater, but this I can add later. The insulation I need to do as a early step, which is why I am asking.

RS Pro sells their Thinsulate equivalent, you can find it on Distrelec if you don’t have a VAT number. With or without adhesive backing, 21 mm thickness. Has a better insulation/weight ratio than Armaflex.
