Commercial Stone Wool Batt
ROCKWOOL
AFB is a light-weight and semi-rigid stone wool batt insulation designed specifically for commercial green-building applications and industrial construction, where fire resistance and acoustic performance are required. For steel or wood stud interior wall and floor applications, the batt is water repellent, non-combustible, chemically inert and dimensionally stable. Easy to install, saving time on the job site, it is ideal for friction fit into wall partitions and system applications from party walls to plant/manufacturing walls. Resisting fire up to 2,150 degrees F, the stone wool insulation achieves its noncombustible properties without added chemical flame retardants and will not contribute to toxic smoke or promote flame spread in the event of a fire. This makes it ideal for use in high-occupancy buildings, such as offices, schools, high-rise residential buildings, seniors’ residences, hotels, or healthcare facilities.
