An insulation product may include an insulation material. The insulation material may include at least one material selected from the group consisting of nonwoven insulation, aerogel insulation, mineral insulation, and foam insulation. The insulation material may include a first end and a second end positioned opposite the first end. The first end may include a protrusion. At least a portion of the protrusion may widen in a direction opposite the second end. The second end may define a cutout that substantially matches a size and shape of the protrusion. The cutout and the protrusion may be aligned with one another along a length of the insulation material.

A system for splicing together multiple sheets of generally rigid material into a continuous sheet. The system includes a cart with a cutting mechanism and a sealing mechanism. The cutting mechanism is configured to cut a pattern of segments through the sheet materials that can be interlocked to form a seam. The interlocking segments may include asymmetrical features. The sealing mechanism can apply tape to the seal to secure it. The splicing system may be used while one of the multiple sheets of generally rigid material is concurrently in use by a packaging machine without interruption to the packaging machine.
