Why Mineral Wool?
-
Mineral wool contains a minimum of 70% recycled content, and it’s non-combustible, inorganic and mold-resistant. Thermafiber® is the #1 specified brand of commercial mineral wool. Mineral wool insulation conserves energy, controls sound, and provides fire protection.
-
Non-Combustible
Resists fire and temperatures in excess of 2,000˚F while also providing sound control and energy conservation.
-
Mold-Resistant
Resists mold, fungi, and is vermin proof due to its being an inorganic material.
-
Water-Resistance
Allows the vapor barrier to perform without creating additional traps for moisture in the wall cavity.
-
Sustainability
70% minimum Recycled Content contribute to LEED® building programs.
-
Ease of Installation
As a semi-rigid product that is easy to cut and install, its flexibility allows it to conform to building shapes and construction irregularities.
