EarthWool™ Foil Fenced Roof Rolls

Description

Knauf Insulation’s EarthWool™ Roof Rolls are intended for both thermal and acoustical applications, and have optional foil facing. They are made from highly resilient, inorganic glass fibres bonded by ECOSE® Technology, a revolutionary new binder based on rapidly renewable bio-based materials rather than non-renewable petroleum-based chemicals. ECOSE® Technology reduces Knauf Insulation
binder embodied energy and contains no phenol, formaldehyde, acrylics or artificial colours found in
traditional glasswool insulation.

Application

EarthWool™ Roof Rolls provide a cost-effective thermal and acoustical barrier for energy-efficient
construction.

Their consistent quality, low dust, and clean-cutting resilient fibres make fabrication easy and installation fast. EarthWool™ Roof Rolls can be used in new and retrofit applications in residential and commercial structures,
as well as in off or on-site manufactured housing. These applications include thermal and acoustical treatments
to metal and roof tile applications. The range of roof insulation can be faced with standard foil laminates or
they can be faced and cut to length according to your specification.

ECOSE® Technology

Knauf Insulation’s EarthWool products with ECOSE® Technology benefit from a formaldehyde-free binder
made from rapidly renewable bio-based materials instead of petroleum-based chemicals which is up to 70%
less energy intensive. The technology has been developed for Knauf Insulation’s glass and rock mineral
wool products, enhancing their environmental credentials without affecting the thermal, acoustic or fire
performance. EarthWool™ products made with ECOSE® Technology contain no dye or artificial colours–
the colour is completely natural.

Bio-solubility

Glasswool insulation fibres have been tested in laboratory studies according to EC protocols ECB/ TM27 REV. 7,
1998 and shown to be bio-soluable. KNS3 fibres comply with the short term biopersistence test and fulfill the
requirements of Australian and international authorities on biosolubility. EarthWool™ has BRANZ certification.
