Knauf Earthwool Partition Rolls enhance masonry walls and concrete tilt panels. The Earthwool® Acoustic Insulation Roll (OEM), weighing 24kg/m3, is an innovative and eco-friendly glass wool insulation option that is softer and safer to handle. It is conveniently compressed for efficient packaging, reducing handling time and on-site storage requirements. These partition rolls are free from odor, resistant to rot, non-hygroscopic, and do not attract vermin or promote the growth of fungi, mold, or bacteria. This resilient insulation quickly regains its full thickness, ensuring a snug fit and superior aesthetic finish. Earthwool Acoustic Partition Rolls offer a pleasant tactile experience, easy cutting, and swift installation. The low-dust nature of Earthwool contributes to easier handling and increased productivity.
The 24kg/m³ Earthwool Acoustic Insulation Roll can enhance Rw ratings by 3 to 5 decibels in wood stud construction and 8 to 10 decibels in metal stud construction, depending on wall complexity and thickness/density. This product is intended for light commercial applications and can be applied to interior and exterior walls.
Earthwool, produced by Knauf Insulation, is crafted from recycled glass using ECOSE® Technology, a groundbreaking binder derived from rapidly renewable materials rather than petrochemicals. It boasts reduced embodied energy and does not contain added phenol, formaldehyde, acrylics, or artificial colors. Earthwool Acoustic Insulation Rolls provide an economical solution for enhancing thermal and acoustic performance in energy-efficient construction projects. They are handy for upgrading masonry walls’ acoustic and thermal qualities in residential and commercial structures.
