Product Information

Knauf Insulation Acoustic Roll is a Glass Mineral Wool roll, designed for use in internal wall and floor applications, to offer sound absorption and noise reduction properties. Knauf glass wool insulation is non-combustible with the best possible Euroclass A1 reaction to fire classification and is manufactured using Knauf Insulation’s unique bio-based binder, ECOSE® Technology. Acoustic Roll is odourless, rot proof, non-hygroscopic, does not sustain vermin and will not encourage the growth of fungi, mould or bacteria.

Benefits

• Proven test results with all major brands of
  plasterboard to provide assured compliance with
  sound related building regulations.
• Manufactured density over 10kg/m³ meeting
  the requirements outlined within relevant sound related
  building regulations.
• Glass wool insulation rolls are designed to fit between studs to close
  joints, reducing the potential for unwanted gaps and
  ensuring high levels of sound insulation.
• Long roll lengths that are ready-cut allow for quick
  and easy installation.

Application

Acoustic Roll is specifically designed for friction fitting between joists and studs at 400mm and 600mm centres to improve the sound insulation of:

• separating walls and floors
• internal walls and floors
• timber and metal stud partitions

Acoustic Roll is also designed for friction fitting between resilient timber battens and timber studs in Robust Detail separating floors and walls. Acoustic Insulation Rolls provides a high level of sound absorption, whilst also improving the thermal and fire performance of the wall, floor or partition. Using Glass Mineral Wool as a sound absorbent layer in partitions and floors significantly improves their acoustic performance. In internal walls Glass Mineral Wool complements plasterboard linings by absorbing airborne sound, and reducing reverberation, and is particularly effective at preventing the hollow sound that can occur in partitions with unfilled cavities.
