The Benefits of Rockfloor Insulation

Rockwool insulation is an efficient way to help maintain an ideal temperature and cut energy costs, while being fireproof, water resistant and moldproof – three qualities essential when creating an inviting living environment. Plus it stands up well against everyday wear-and-tear.

This company also provides acoustic products designed to reduce impact noise from footsteps in homes with wooden floors. This insulation helps dampen sound waves and prevent them from propagating throughout your home.

Exceptional acoustic dampening properties

Insulation and soundproofing require numerous considerations when it comes to soundproofing a building, such as how sounds enter. How you route sound into your space will have a major bearing on how much noise is absorbed or reflected back by insulation materials.

If you want to reduce the level of noise transfer in a room, insulation of walls, ceilings and floors is critical to achieve effective noise abatement. Rockwool insulation’s outstanding acoustic dampening properties offer the ideal way to achieve this objective.

Rockwool offers many exciting products, but none quite so distinct as its Rockfloor Acoustic Floor Insulation Slab. This innovative insulation can be easily installed beneath or atop load bearing slabs for incredible acoustic dampening qualities.

Water-resistant

Waterproofing is essential in many building types. From swimming pools and spa facilities, to laundries, shower rooms and basements; any time water gets inside it can cause havoc!

Rockwool insulation products provide superior water-resistant protection, helping your floors remain dry and comfortable. With such products available on the market, finding suitable insulation solutions should not be an issue!

FOAMGLAS(r) cellular glass insulation is the ultimate water-resistant insulator, intended to be installed below any load bearing slab of your choice. Its resilient cellular design makes it highly resilient against pressure and weight while still delivering thermal performance even in the event of water ingress. Furthermore, its resistance against humic acids, chemicals, spores, rodents and insects as well as mold and mildew make it the smart choice for any building – in essence changing our understanding of flooring technology altogether!

Easy to install

Rockfloor insulation is an effortless product to install, requiring little or no special knowledge for setup. Its dual density design enables it to accommodate sub-floor imperfections on one side while simultaneously offering strong compressive strength on the other.

Therefore, this flooring option is ideal for ground floors, dividing floors and intermediate floors where space is at a premium. Furthermore, its excellent acoustic properties help reduce noise levels even further.

This material features a tissue face finish for greater compatibility across installation methods, making it suitable for meeting both Part E (Acoustic) and new Part L (2006) thermal regulations.

Euroclass A1 non-combustible, water repellent and rot-resistant product designed to create a comfortable indoor environment for its occupants. With its fire, acoustic, thermal properties ensuring an enjoyable living space; ROCKWOOL FLEXI(r) can also help provide fire stopping between floors when used to create compartment floors that provide fire stopping up to one hour fire resistance along with providing acoustic isolation properties.

Cost-effective

Insulating your ground floor can save money and increase efficiency, while making your home more comfortable at night.

Rockfloor insulation offers an economical solution for keeping heat inside and draughts outside, suitable for many different kinds of floors such as concrete slabs and suspended ones.

Combining thermal insulation and soundproofing, this solution offers dual density thermal and acoustic protection for ground floors or separating floors.

This approach can be especially advantageous in new build buildings.

Due to its excellent acoustic properties, Rockwool insulation can help mitigate impact noise caused by footsteps and other sounds.

Insulation in your crawl space can also provide an effective barrier against moisture entering. Furthermore, insulation will save money on energy costs by preventing heat loss through its insulation properties.
