Glass Wool Insulation
Glass wool insulation is known for its thermal benefits, fire resistance, and durability. Also known as fibreglass insulation, it has excellent thermal performance thanks to the way it’s made. The gaps between the tiny glass fibres create air pockets, which trap still air. Air is a poor conductor of heat, so this process means that heat will be retained inside during winter, and outside during summer – essentially preventing heat from passing through the surface of where the insulation is laid.
From maintaining warmth in winter to encouraging cooling of the property in summer, glass fibre insulation reduces the need for artificial heating and cooling. Not only does this help insulate you suitably in the different temperatures, but you're ultimately saving energy and reducing energy bills. We also offer fire protective fibreglass insulation if you need to meet specific fire standards.
Fiberglass insulation can be easily cut to size, making it suitable for a range of applications, including roofs, lofts, floors, walls, and ceilings. The lightweight and flexible design also ensures easy moulding to fit in complex spaces, ensuring every corner of your building is properly insulated.
Glass wool vs mineral wool – what’s the difference? Both of these types of insulation are made from porous, fibrous materials, but their functionality differs slightly, which can affect where they’re best suited when it comes to installation. Glass wool is lighter, more flexible, and slightly cheaper, so it is great for tight loft spaces and floors which can’t hold too much load-bearing weight. It is also more cost-effective if you need to cover a large surface area. Opt for mineral wool if you require something sturdier with ultimate fire resistance, as it can withstand temperatures of up to 1,000 degrees compared to 500 for fibreglass insulation.
