The linked material is 78 mils thick, which is good. The aluminum doesn't do anything, butyl without it will work just as well, but it seems that everyone uses aluminum. That's because people would be inclined to use aluminum layered rather than plain because they don't know any better.

Thanks for insightful response. Good to know that quality is OK, it’s the cheapest available locally.
Is it really a thing that these end up in the bottom of the door if on outer metal? I live in Scandinavia so ambient temperature is almost never above 25 degrees, I do however have a black car…
Floor carpet is quite think I would say, I don’t think I will bother pulling the carpet.
