Thermafiber batt insulation is one of the superior insulation products in the

market that provide the ultimate thermal insulation, sound proofing as well as

fire protection. They have a high melting point than its equivalent glass fiber

products. This make it one of the most preferred insulating material for

commercial and high rise building application. Furthermore its high density built

structure facilitates amazing sound-proofing qualities; yet it is flexible enough to

accommodate tight spaces. A 3.5 inch of Thermafiber batt for 2x4 walls has a

thermal resistance of R-15.

Thermafiber batts are made of 90% recycled material and post industrial recycled

content. It makes it the most recyclable insulating material and way better than

glass fiber or other mineral wool insulation. When fire proofing is concerned, it

can withstand up-to 2000 degrees Fahrenheit of temperature and still function in

its optimum efficiency. Other products from Thermafiber provide even better fire

protection.

Advantages of Thermafiber Batts:

Mineral wool material makes it a superior water repellent

It is non-combustible, making it perfect for commercial and industrial

application

Provides high thermal insulation i.e. R-4.2 per inch of thickness.

Higher sound attenuation than other insulation products

Wide range of applications:

Continuous exterior insulation in houses and industries

Interior wall partition insulation

Acoustical insulation in studios and business organization

Thermal protection in industries and factories

Fire containment systems and other industrial applications

Sound Attenuation properties increase when installed in stud cavities.

Furthermore they are much efficient in suppressing low-frequency sound that are

produced by machines and mechanical equipments. According to research it is

seen that installing Thermafiber insulation on any structure can increase sound

transmission class (STC) rating by 5 points. Efficiency retains from medium to high

frequency sound waves.

Such high-performance mineral wool insulation is extensively used in Europe,

whereas in US it is primarily used in industrial and commercial sectors. Hence

Thermafiber products are more cost-effective in commercial application than

residential. However, today more and more home owners are adopting

Thermafiber insulation, solely because of its fire-protection properties. When it

comes to safety, this is as best as any thermal insulator can get.
