Product Overview
Stone wool insulation slab, 30mm thick and cut to 1200 × 600mm, developed for demanding acoustic and fire-rated constructions.
With a density of 100 kg/m³, the slab offers a robust balance of rigidity and sound absorption. The added mass helps to block airborne noise transfer, while the dense fibre structure absorbs sound within the cavity, improving acoustic comfort across partitions, floors, and ceilings.
This higher density also gives the slab excellent dimensional stability, supporting structural integrity and ensuring it holds its shape once installed.
Its semi-rigid form allows for a friction fit that minimises air gaps and maintains consistent performance.
Classified as non-combustible, the slab provides reliable fire resistance, contributing to enhanced safety within the building fabric.
At 30mm thick, it provides effective airborne sound reduction and dependable fire resistance, making it well suited to lining partitions, ceilings, and floors where space is restricted.
Features & Benefits
- A1 non-combustible fire rating (BS EN 13501-1): Meets UK and Ireland Building Regulations for non-combustible materials.
- Stone wool material: Naturally resists rot, fungal decay, and insect attack for long-term durability.
- 100kg/m³ density: Rigid and stable, providing maximum sound absorption and secure fitting.
- Semi-rigid slab format: Installs neatly between studs, joists, and rafters.
- Open-fibre structure: Provides excellent sound absorption for reduced noise transfer.
- Easily cut to size: Allows straightforward installation around services and fixtures.
- Slab size 1200 x 600mm: Standard board dimensions suit common stud spacings.
- 30mm thickness: Slim profile for acoustic upgrades in walls and ceilings with tight voids.
Applications
- Stud partitions: Enhances acoustic separation between rooms to meet Approved Document E standards.
- Ceilings: Improves airborne sound insulation in shallow ceiling voids.
- Floors: Adds effective acoustic performance to timber floors.
- Separation walls: Provides fire safety and sound absorption in dividing walls.
Installation Guidance
- Friction fit between studs/joists: Ensures slabs stay securely in place without gaps.
- Cut with insulation saw or knife: Achieves accurate fitting around pipes, sockets, and structural details
- Protect from moisture during install: Maintain insulation performance by keeping slabs dry until enclosed.
Compliance & Performance
- Euroclass A1 non-combustible (BS EN 13501-1): Complies with Building Regulations requirements for non-combustible materials.
- CE marked to BS EN 13162: Factory-made mineral wool insulation, tested for thermal conductivity (0.034 W/mK) and acoustic absorption performance.
