Rock wool insulation is an eco-friendly insulant, safe for both humans and the environment. Furthermore, it does not emit an unpleasant odour and is rotproof – all features which help ensure its safe use in any setting.
This 50mm rockwool insulation roll delivers thermal, acoustic, and fire protection properties for families. Rated Euroclass A1 non-combustible to protect them against fire hazards, while being water repellent preventing moisture buildup that causes damp and rot problems.
Thermal Insulation
ROCKWOOL thermal insulation delivers superb acoustic and fire performance while being extremely energy efficient, saving both you and your building significant money on energy consumption. By choosing ROCKWOOL insulation in either your home or commercial building you’ll greatly decrease energy consumption costs and have greater peace of mind knowing your heating costs have been cut significantly.
Simple installation via friction fit between timber or metal frame constructions saves both time and money for customers, as it’s easily installed between joists and studs – saving both on-site time and customer bills! Can also be used in roof, walls and floors of framed buildings.
50mm rockwool insulation rolls feature excellent acoustic properties and can be utilized in wooden-framed external walls, joist floors, timber suspended ground floors, partition walls and separating walls – as well as pitched roof structures – for effective thermal and acoustic insulation.
Rock wool differs from glass mineral wool in that it remains dimensionally stable over time and doesn’t settle over time, as well as having non-hygroscopic and water resistant properties that help prevent the build-up of moisture that could result in damp, rot or condensation.
Acoustic Insulation
Acoustic insulation can help minimize sound transmission between walls and floors, as well as unwanted noise from outside sources, such as traffic or neighbours. When used within buildings, acoustic insulation helps regulate temperatures while improving indoor air quality; in turn lowering energy consumption costs while protecting health through reduced carbon footprints and protecting occupants’ wellbeing.
Rockwool acoustic insulation can be utilized in various settings and applications. From retrofitting new builds and remodels, to slotting between spaces to reduce noise transmission between rooms or floors and even around electrical cables and sockets to prevent them from rattling against walls, its versatility allows it to meet multiple requirements.
Before insulating your home, it’s essential to consult a building professional and select an insulation product that complies with building regulations – this can save time and money in repairs down the line.
Fire Resistance
Rock wool insulation is a highly fire-retardant material, capable of withstanding extreme temperatures without melting, burning, or smoking – an essential feature when used for commercial buildings where fire safety is of the utmost concern. As such, rock wool makes for the ideal material to insulate metal and timber framing systems in commercial properties with metal framing systems in which fire safety must be considered of primary concern.
Also, this material is moisture-resistant and will not absorb water, is odourless, nonhygroscopic and will not support mildew or mould growth in wall cavities, plus won’t support vermin infestations.
Choose a rockwool insulation roll that meets both the R-Value recommended for your location and thermal requirements for your building, as well as any acoustic or fire regulations, while being easy to install and suitable for your particular project. Consider any openings and fixing points which need to be accommodated within your insulation choice when choosing thickness for installation.
Environmentally Friendly
Rock wool insulation is made of recycled and renewable materials, making it a sustainable solution. Installation generates minimal waste, making this an eco-friendly choice for construction projects.
Rockwool insulation rolls offer another advantage over their glass wool counterparts in that they do not absorb water, thereby maintaining thermal efficiency and providing greater R-value retention. Glass wool, on the other hand, absorbs rainwater over time, decreasing its R-value significantly over time.
Isover 50mm Acoustic Roll offers excellent acoustic properties to block out noise sources like traffic and aircraft noise, making it a fantastic choice for building and office applications. Additionally, its heat loss reducing properties help to keep spaces warmer during winter and cooler during summer. Furthermore, its easy installation makes it a cost-effective choice for use on walls, roof rafter insulation or loft and suspended floor insulation as well as noncombustibility with EuroClass A1 fire rating rating – providing peace of mind at affordable rates!
