Glass Wool Insulation

Glass wool insulation, manufactured by Knauf, is a category of insulation materials known for its exceptional thermal and acoustic properties. This category encompasses a variety of products, each designed to cater to specific insulation needs. The key products in this category are the Knauf DriTherm Cavity Slab, SteelTherm Roll, Acoustic Partition Roll, and Timber Frame Party Wall Slab. Below, we explore the uses and benefits of these different types of glass wool insulation products.

DriTherm Cavity Slab 37 and DriTherm 34

The Knauf DriTherm Cavity Slabs (37 and 34) are high-performance glass mineral wool insulation products. These slabs are specifically designed for use in cavity walls. Their primary function is to provide excellent thermal insulation, ensuring energy efficiency and comfort in buildings. The difference in the numerical designation (37 and 34) usually pertains to the density and thermal conductivity of the product, allowing customers to choose according to their specific thermal insulation requirements.

SteelTherm Roll 40

Knauf SteelTherm Roll 40 is a versatile glass wool insulation product, available in roll form. This product is particularly suited for applications in steel frame structures. It offers not only superior thermal insulation but also exceptional acoustic performance, making it ideal for environments where noise reduction is a priority. The roll form factor makes it easy to handle and install, especially in large or irregularly shaped spaces.

Acoustic Partition Roll

The Knauf Acoustic Partition Roll is available in different thicknesses (e.g., 100mm and 75mm) and is primarily used for acoustic insulation in partition walls. This product is essential in environments where sound insulation is crucial, such as in offices, residential buildings, and educational institutions. The varying thicknesses allow for flexibility in achieving desired sound insulation levels.

Timber Frame Party Wall Slab

Specifically designed for timber frame constructions, the Knauf Timber Frame Party Wall Slab is an ideal solution for thermal and acoustic insulation in party walls. This product is tailored to fit the unique requirements of timber constructions, ensuring both energy efficiency and effective noise reduction between adjoining units.

Selecting the Right Product

When choosing the appropriate glass wool insulation product, consider the following factors:

1. Application Area: Determine where the insulation will be installed (e.g., cavity walls, steel structures, partition walls, timber frames).
2. Insulation Needs: Decide whether thermal or acoustic insulation is the priority, or if both are required.

3. Thickness and Density: Consider the specific requirements for thickness and density based on the construction type and desired insulation performance.
