Glass wool insulation materials are a type of insulation made from interwoven and flexible glass fibers. The fibers are arranged using a binder into a texture similar to wool, and the process traps many small pockets of air between the glass. These air pockets result in high thermal insulation properties. Glass wool is produced in rolls or in slabs, with different thermal and mechanical properties. It may also be produced as a material that can be sprayed or applied in place, on the surface to be insulated.
Glass wool is a popular choice for insulation because it is:
- Effective at reducing heat loss and gain
- Non-combustible
- Moisture-resistant
- Sound-absorbing
- Relatively inexpensive
Glass wool is used in a variety of applications, including:
- Attics
- Walls
- Floors
- Ceilings
- Ductwork
- Pipes
- Other industrial and commercial applications
Fast wire foam contour cutting machine can CNC cut the glass wool insulation materials.
