Product Overview

Stone wool insulation slab, measuring 60mm in thickness, designed for use in internal partitions, floors, and roof applications.

Manufactured from high-density stone wool, the slab combines excellent acoustic absorption with reliable thermal insulation and inherent fire resistance. 

Its rigid composition allows a close friction fit between studs or joists, preventing gaps that could compromise performance.

Non-combustible and classified as Euroclass A1, the slab contributes to improved fire safety within the building fabric. Its fibre structure also provides effective sound reduction, limiting noise transfer between rooms and floors.

At 60mm thick, the slab offers enhanced acoustic and thermal performance compared to thinner options in the range. 

It is well suited to partitions, floors, and ceilings where stronger sound control and added fire resilience are required without moving up to the greater depth of 75mm or 100mm.

Features & Benefits

  • Euroclass A1 fire classification: Non-combustible in accordance with BS EN 13501-1.
  • Stone wool mineral slab: Naturally resistant to rot, fungal decay, and insect attack.
  • Square-cut edges: Butt together cleanly for continuous insulation layers.
  • Porous fibre structure: Absorbs sound energy, reducing noise transfer through walls and floors.
  • Semi-rigid slab: Simple to shape with a knife and friction-fit between studs or joists.
  • Thermal conductivity 0.035 W/m·K: Helps maintain building energy efficiency.
  • Sustainable manufacture: Made from natural volcanic rock, recyclable, zero ODP/GWP.
  • 60mm thickness: A mid-range option that delivers a strong mix of acoustic, thermal, and fire protection without the bulk of thicker slabs.

Applications

  • Separating partitions in dwellings: Delivers stronger acoustic performance.
  • Floor constructions between flats: Reduces airborne noise across shared levels.
  • Ceilings in high-traffic areas: Helps control noise in busy environments.
  • Internal wall upgrades: Provides enhanced acoustic and thermal performance.


Installation Guidance

  • Precision cutting: Use a sharp insulation saw or broad-bladed knife to cut slabs slightly oversized to ensure a compressed friction fit.
  • Seamless abutment: Butt all joints tightly together with no visible gaps to maintain the continuity of the fire and acoustic barrier.
  • Mechanical support: Secure with appropriate netting or insulation hangers when installing in overhead applications to prevent gravity-induced movement.
  • Environmental protection: Store slabs undercover and off the ground to ensure the material remains dry and free from contaminants prior to installation.
  • Personal protection: Wear loose-fitting clothing, gloves, and safety goggles to minimise skin and eye contact with mineral fibres.


Soundproofing Guidance

  • Mass Enhancement: Combine slabs with high-density soundproof plasterboard to significantly increase the total mass of the partition. 
  • Decoupling Strategy: Use resilient bars or independent stud frames in conjunction with the slabs to prevent mechanical vibration from traveling through the structure.
  • Acoustic Sealing: Apply acoustic sealant to the perimeter of the partition and around any penetrations to prevent "flanking" noise from bypassing the insulation.
  • Cavity Management: Ensure the slab fills at least 75% of the cavity depth to provide optimal sound absorption and prevent internal resonance.


Compliance & Performance

  • Thermal conductivity: Declared 0.035 W/m·K (EN 13162).
  • Fire performance: Euroclass A1 non-combustible (BS EN 13501-1).
  • Certification: CE and Key marked to BS EN 13162:2012 + A1:2015.
  • Acoustic standards: Supports compliance with Building Regulations Approved Document E (England & Wales), Section 5 (Scotland), and BB93 (schools) for acoustic performance in internal and separating walls/floors.
  • Sound Absorption Class: Achieves Sound Absorption Class A (aw 0.95). High-performance dampening that significantly exceeds Part E requirements for internal walls.
  • Marine/offshore certification: Lloyd’s Register approved as non-combustible.

How delivery works

We work with a nationwide network of trusted suppliers. Items in your basket may be supplied by different suppliers and delivered separately. Where this applies, you will see delivery charges shown at checkout for each part of your order. We always aim to group products from the same supplier to keep delivery costs as low as possible.

Delivery areas

Delivery charges apply to mainland UK, excluding: AB, CA, CF, DD, DG, EH, EX, FK, KA, KW, KY, IV, LA, LD, LL, ML, NP, PA, PH, PL, SA, SY, TR, TQ and TD.

If your address is in one of these areas, we will contact you before processing your order to confirm any additional costs. We do not currently offer delivery outside the UK mainland.

What to expect on delivery day

  • Deliveries are typically kerbside.
  • Please ensure someone is on-site to accept delivery. For heavier items, help with offloading may be required.
  • Many building materials arrive on large vehicles. If access is restricted, a specialist vehicle such as a HIAB may be required and could incur an additional charge.

Why delivery can cost more than typical parcel delivery

Building materials often travel on larger vehicles and usually carry fewer drops per run than parcel networks. That is why delivery charges can be higher than standard e-commerce shipping.

Returns

Returns depend on what you have bought and whether there is anything wrong with it. For full details on eligibility, timeframes, and exclusions, please see our full policy.
