What you need to know to choose quality mineral wool

What kind of insulation to choose? And how to choose quality products? - these are, perhaps, the most popular questions asked by readers. And this is no accident, because the choice of insulation is an important point on which the thermal insulation properties and durability of future housing depend.

Today we will talk about mineral wool, and I will give some tips on how to choose quality mineral wool.

What is rock wool?

Mineral wool is a heater based on thin fibers of minerals based on basalt or quartz sand. These fibers are stacked with different densities, glued together with different compositions, which is why the range of mineral wool is quite wide, both in quality and in price range.

How to choose high quality mineral wool?

I will not tire of repeating: "Expensive does not mean good! Cheap doesn't mean bad! " When choosing materials, we look first of all not at the price, but at the characteristics.

• A high-quality and safe insulation should not contain phenol-formaldehyde and acrylic resins.
• Mineral wool should be elastic so that it can stand up and not slide down further.

• Modern technologies for processing insulation materials give it moisture resistance. This is an important indicator when choosing mineral wool.
• Storage conditions must meet the requirements. The material should not be stored under the influence of atmospheric precipitation or in a highly humid room.
• It is worth using products from trusted manufacturers.

In my work I use TeploKNAUF mineral wool. The products have already been tested by time and hundreds of satisfied customers. During the whole time of my work, there was not a single complaint. It costs a lot!

Mineral wool TeploKNAUF has all of the above characteristics:

• it is environmentally friendly, resilient and keeps its shape well.
• has a special Aquastatik impregnation to protect the fibers from moisture.

• it is convenient to work with it, it practically does not get dusty.
• compressed packaging is an additional plus, which is very important during transportation.
• the price-quality ratio, in my opinion, is decent.
• low thermal conductivity 0.036-0.037 W / (m. K), which means high efficiency of keeping heat inside the room.
