Insulation Academy

With thermal, acoustic and fire regulations in buildings becoming increasingly stringent, the Insulation Academy has been established by Knauf Insulation to provide 'personal' support to your business in relation to insulation products and solutions.
Whether the support you require is a phone call to our Technical Support Team, a CPD presentation at your office by our specification team, or an 'in-house' training course for your staff at one of the Knauf Insulation demonstration and display areas, you can rely on us to not only provide industry leading technical expertise, but also 'tools' to enhance your business and service offer.
As the largest U.K. manufacturer of insulation with the broadest range of mineral wool and foam products, Knauf Insulation is in the unique position to provide you with genuinely impartial advice on the most appropriate insulation solution for any application or project. We take pride in being an 'insulation supplier' rather than a 'product supplier'.
Typical presentations and courses which are available at either your office or our Insulation Academy are:
 

For Architects and Specifiers

  • Continuing Professional Development courses (CPDs) - on Part L, Part E and the Code for Sustainable Homes, a variety of additional CPD`s are also being developed so register with our CPD Academy to be kept informed of release dates.
  • Specification Support - providing tools such as NBS Clauses, CAD files, 3D Heat Loss Calculations and SAP Calculation software

For Merchants and Distributors

  • An Introduction to Insulation - providing the 'basics of insulation' to enable new people to the industry to gain 'fast-track' knowledge on the principles of energy efficiency and acoustics

For Installers

  • A range of courses are offered for every building application including specialist training on 'blown' insulation into cavity walls
