Glasswool

Unlike other types of insulation, glasswool provides combined thermal and acoustic insulation along with unbeatable A1 Euroclass fire classification. Of course glasswool insulation enables energy savings which mean that the cost of installing glasswool in a building will usually pay for itself in 2 or 3 years - an unbeatable return on investment.

Knauf Insulation glasswool is rot-proof, odourless, nonhydroscopic, does not sustain vermin and will not encourage the growth of fungi, mould or bacteria. It is chemically neutral and does not contain impurities.

Glasswool is avaiable in:

• Rolls - Rolls are the most efficient method of transporting and storing glasswool.
• batts - are not as efficient to transport and store as rolls, they are slightly stiffer enabling easy 'friction-fitting' in some applications. The special characteristics of glasswool batts enable higher packaged compression (compared to stonewool batts) with guaranteed 'bouce back' to the required thickness when installed. The fibres of stonewool are easy to damage meaning that the product generally cannot be compressed. Up to 3 times as much glasswool can fit in the same size of package of stonewool reducing the time to move product.
