Could be; I wish they had a better photo of the material itself. That on the web page does not really show enough detail of the material to verify.

And the material Centuri used varied a bit over the years also. Sometimes, the foil layer was the prominent layer visible and other times the material seemed to be predominated by the paper layer. But in each case it was a mixture of foil, paper, and filaments of what appeared to be Fiberglas threads or nylon threads.
