Knauf acoustic products can reduce noise in your home or office. There are several types of Knauf acoustic materials available. Some of these include Mineral wool insulation, ECOSE technology, and Earthwool insulation roll. This article will discuss some of the key features of these materials.
acoustic Knauf products
Designed for optimum sound absorption and acoustic performance, Acoustic Knauf products are soft to touch and easy to install. Made of glass mineral wool, they are non-combustible and lightweight. They are available in a wide variety of thicknesses and can be easily installed between floor joists and plasterboard partitions.
Knauf’s Earthwool Acoustic Roll is an excellent choice for internal wall and floor applications. It is non-combustible and sustainable, and is designed to meet New Zealand Building Code requirements. It’s also free of odour and vermin. It’s also a good choice for commercial buildings.
Acoustic Knauf products are available with asthma and allergy friendly (r) certifications. Asthma and allergy friendly (r) products meet strict criteria and are tested by independent third parties. For example, Knauf’s Performance+ Acoustic Panel has been tested to ensure that it meets all the criteria of an asthma and allergy-friendly panel.
Acoustic Knauf products can enhance the acoustic performance of a building by absorbing unwanted sound from external sources and between adjoining rooms. They are also super-soft to handle and are produced using ECOSE (r) Technology and up to 80% recycled glass. They are also CFC-free and ozone-friendly. They are also produced under ISO 9001:2008 and ISO 14001:2004 standards.
Mineral wool insulation
Mineral wool is a versatile and environmentally friendly sound absorber that can be used to insulate floors, walls, and ceilings. Its open and fibered structure helps it to have excellent sound absorbing properties. Sound absorption, also known as sound-absorption behaviour, depends on material thickness, weight, and surface treatment.
Knauf has introduced new technologies to further improve the performance of its mineral wool insulation. The new technology known as ECOSE(r) reduces embodied energy and is odourless. Moreover, it is eco-friendly as it is made from rapidly renewable materials.
Knauf also offers Acoustic Roll, a lightweight and flexible glass mineral wool quilt, suitable for internal wall and floor applications. Its high absorption properties prevent sound from entering the space, while improving thermal performance. Additionally, it is non-combustible and has the best Euroclass A1 reaction to fire classification. Knauf also offers Bio-Based Bender, which helps maintain the insulating properties of mineral wool.
Knauf Earthwool insulation is a versatile product suitable for a wide variety of applications. It is rot-proof and non-hygroscopic, preventing fungi and bacteria from growing. It is also lightweight and easy to handle. Its flexibility makes it easy to install and cut to size.
ECOSE technology
The ECOSE technology in Mineral Wool offers an efficient thermal and acoustic barrier while maintaining the benefits of Mineral Wool. This technology is widely used in a variety of applications and is certified to meet all European building regulations. This type of insulation material also produces low dust and is highly resilient. These qualities make it an ideal choice for upgrading the acoustic performance of your building. Glass Wool rolls can also help you achieve higher Rw ratings in buildings with metal or wood stud construction.
In addition, ECOSE Technology contains 70% fewer energy than conventional binders. It also contains no dyes or artificial colours. It is also odourless and easy to cut. In addition, the Knauf ECOSE insulation is more environmentally friendly than traditional mineral wool.
The ECOSE technology also has several other advantages. Its low embodied energy means less carbon is released during manufacturing. Furthermore, the natural brown colour eliminates the need for artificial colouring. The ECOSE technology is a great choice for buildings and homes with acoustic issues.
The ECOSE technology in Knauf’s Acoustic Insulation Boards helps to reduce noise and reverberation. These boards are ideal for bass traps and other acoustic applications. It also helps to improve the thermal efficiency of a building. The ECOSE technology is certified by UL Environment and GREENGUARD Gold. This material is a great option for building projects that wish to achieve LEED green building certification.
Earthwool insulation roll
Acoustic Knauf Earthwool insulation rolls are an excellent choice for upgrading the thermal and acoustic performance of masonry walls. They come in a variety of sizes and can be fitted to different wall types. These rolls also resist the growth of bacteria and mould. They are free of formaldehyde and phenol.
Knauf Earthwool insulation rolls are designed to be easy to handle, soft to touch, and offer enhanced acoustic performance. Each roll is 1200mm wide and features perforations, which make installation easier between plasterboard partitions and floor joists.
Acoustic Knauf Earthwool insulation rolls can be used in residential and commercial applications. They are non-combustible and manufactured using ECOSE(r) Technology. They are also easy to handle and are flexible. They can be easily fitted between 600mm centres. They are fire-rated Euroclass A1 and comply with BS EN 13501-1.
Earthwool Acoustic Rolls are available in a variety of sizes. The largest roll is 1200mm wide and comes in ready-cut rolls of two 600mm wide rolls. Its unique layered structure provides high levels of sound absorption, while simultaneously improving thermal performance and preventing fire. The roll’s density of 10kg/m3 is ideal for friction fitting between studs or resilient timber battens. It provides a continuous layer of absorbent material between the layers of masonry and timber.
