Application

FrameTherm Slab is for the thermal insulation of external walls and warm roofs in timber frame construction. FrameTherm Slab is friction fitted between studs and rafters and are 570mm wide to suit commonly used stud and rafter spacings.

FrameTherm Slab can also be used for acoustic insulation in timber framed separating walls.

Standards
FrameTherm Slab is non-combustible inorganic glass wool, defined as mineral wool in BS 3533: 1981 and are manufactured in accordance with BSI Quality Assurance Standard BS EN ISO 9001: 2000

Vapour resistance and condensation
FrameTherm Slab allows water vapour to pass freely through the insulation, therefore allowing the construction element to breathe.

Durability
FrameTherm Slab is rot proof, does not sustain vermin and will not encourage the growth of fungi, mould or bacteria. FrameTherm Slab is odourless and non-hygroscopic.

Knauf Insulation mineral wool products with ECOSE® Technology benefit from a revolutionary, bio-based, formaldehyde-free binder technology, based on rapidly renewable materials, instead of petro-based chemicals. It reduces embodied energy and delivers superior environmental sustainability.

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. Insulation products made with ECOSE® Technology contain no dye or artificial colours – the colour is completely natural.
