Timber Frame Walls:

• Thermal Insulation: Rockwool Timber Frame Slab provides effective thermal insulation, helping to reduce heat loss and improve energy efficiency in timber frame walls.
• Fire Protection: The slab offers robust fire resistance, enhancing the safety of timber frame buildings by helping to prevent the spread of fire.
• Acoustic Insulation: It improves acoustic performance, reducing noise transmission through timber frame walls and contributing to a quieter indoor environment.
• Moisture Management: The material is designed to manage moisture effectively, preventing water ingress and protecting the structural integrity of timber frame constructions.

Floors:

• Intermediate Floors: Ideal for insulating intermediate floors in timber frame buildings, providing thermal efficiency and reducing sound transmission between floors.

Roofs:

• Pitched Roofs: Suitable for insulating pitched roofs within timber frame structures, helping to maintain thermal performance and reduce energy consumption.

Ceilings:

• Suspended Ceilings: Effective for use in suspended ceilings within timber frame buildings, enhancing thermal and acoustic performance in interior spaces.
  

Rockwool Timber Frame Slab is also designed for quick and easy installation into standard 600mm (on centre) studs of external timber frame walls. This ensures faster installation, a reliable and long-lasting fit, and consistent performance throughout the building's lifetime.

What is Rockwool Timber Frame Slab?

Rockwool Timber Frame Slab is a semi-rigid stone wool insulation slab specifically designed for use in timber frame constructions. It provides excellent thermal and acoustic insulation, along with enhanced fire resistance, making it suitable for various building applications.

How is Rockwool Timber Frame Slab installed?

Installation of Rockwool Timber Frame Slab involves fitting the slabs snugly between timber studs in walls, floors, or roofs. The slabs can be friction-fitted without the need for additional fixings, ensuring a secure fit and optimal insulation performance.

Is Rockwool Timber Frame Slab environmentally friendly?

Yes, Rockwool Timber Frame Slab is manufactured from natural stone wool, which includes recycled content. It is free from environmentally harmful substances, supporting sustainable building practices, and is fully recyclable at the end of its life cycle.

What are the acoustic performance benefits of Rockwool Timber Frame Slab?

The insulation slab offers excellent acoustic absorption, reducing sound transmission through timber frame walls, floors, and roofs. This improves indoor acoustic comfort, making it particularly beneficial in noisy environments or multi-occupancy buildings.

Does Rockwool Timber Frame Slab require maintenance?

Once installed, Rockwool Timber Frame Slab requires minimal maintenance. It retains its insulating properties and does not degrade over time under normal conditions, ensuring long-term performance and durability in timber frame applications.
