GlassFactoryClad

For the thermal and acoustic insulation of roofs and walls in profiled metal clad and portable buildings.

Description

FactoryClad is a flexible, lightweight roll of resilient, non-combustible glass mineral wool with exceptionally high tear strength. It is produced in a range of four different thermal conductivities.

  • FactoryClad 40 has a thermal conductivity of 0.040 W/mK
  • FactoryClad 37 has a thermal conductivity of 0.037 W/mK
  • FactoryClad 35 has a thermal conductivity of 0.035 W/mK
  • FactoryClad 32 has a thermal conductivity of 0.032 W/mK

Application

FactoryClad is used for the thermal and acoustic insulation of roofs and walls in profiled metal clad buildings and portable buildings. With an A1 fire classification, its use can potentially reduce insurance premiums compared to foam composite panels.

FactoryClad is manufactured 1200mm wide to suit commonly used rail and bracket systems and in long lengths, making it particularly suitable for use in twin skin profiled metal cladding systems and standing seam roofs.

Durability

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

Standards

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

Environmental

ECOSE® Technology
ECOSE® Technology Logo
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.

FactoryClad is free from CFCs, HCFCs and any other material with ozone depletion potential in its manufacture and content and represents no known threat to the environment.

 FactoryClad's manufacture has a low impact on the environment and is classified as Zero ODP and Zero GWP.

Handling and Storage

FactoryClad is easy to handle and install, being lightweight and easily cut to size.

It is supplied in polythene packs which is designed for short term protection only. For longer term protection on site, the product should be stored either indoors, or under cover and off the ground.

FactoryClad should not be left permanently exposed to the elements.
