18 cm mineral wool

Properties of 18 cm mineral wool

Mineral wool with a thickness of 18 cm offers excellent thermal insulation properties thanks to its low thermal conductivity (λ), ranging from 0.032 to 0.037 W/mK. Furthermore, it provides effective protection against heat loss, helping to significantly reduce the costs of heating buildings in winter and cooling them in summer. Knauf 18 cm mineral wool is also non-combustible (class A1), thereby enhancing fire safety in buildings. The fibres of the wool are water-repellent, so they do not absorb moisture and thus prevent the growth of mould and fungi. Furthermore, this material has excellent sound-absorbing properties – it can be an ideal material for acoustic insulation.
