For sure, this is the product page.
1. Energy Saver FP™ - Silvercote

I decided I was probably going to hurt myself trying to install this stuff myself, or do it wrong. This would probably have gone a lot smoother non COVID, all of my building buddies are swamped with their own stuff this year.

Now that I've put up the building, I'd never put up another one. Insulating it and installing windows and doors is so much weirder than with wood frame buildings. At least with a steel Quonset it's just the two end walls you need to deal with.

Can't the vendor suggest an insulation contractor for their product?

All the Monnonites around here have steel clad buildings with internal block walls. Kind of strange. All heated floors using their generator waste heat. Maybe done for thermal mass.

If you had Mennonites around, my first choice would be to find an insulation contractor.
