  • Flexible
  • Lightweight
  • KwikStretch Markings on the FSK and PSK staple flanges.
  • Excellent acoustical properties.
  • Tough and resilient.

Duct Liner

KNAUF SONIC XP ECOSE FIBERGLASS DUCT LINER

DESCRIPTION:

Knauf Sonic XP Duct Liner with ECOSE Technology is a flexible, mat-faced insulation bonded with ECOSE Technology.

APPLICATIONS:

Specifically designed as an interior insulation material for sheet metal ducts used in heating, ventilating and air conditioning. Provides an optimum combination of efficient sound absorption, low thermal conductivity and minimal airstream surface friction.

BENEFITS:

  • Low thermal conductivity
  • Fire-resistant, non-corrosive, durable and resilient
  • Tough, tightly bonded mat facing
  • Excellent sound absorption
  • Greatly reduces noise from fans and mechanical equipment as well as cross-talk and air movement
  • Withstands damage from normal handling and shop abuse
  • Certified for indoor air quality as a low emitting product by The GREENGUARD Environmental Institute.

Plenum Board

KNAUF FIBERGLASS ECOSE RIGID PLENUM BOARD

DESCRIPTION:

Knauf Rigid Plenum Liner with ECOSE Technology is a heavy-density mat-faced fiber glass board insulation bonded with ECOSE Technology. Its base board is brown with a black mat facing to give the airstream a smooth, tough surface, that resists damage during installation and operation.

APPLICATIONS:

Knauf Rigid Plenum Liner with ECOSE Technology is specifically designed as an interior insulation material for heating, ventilating and air conditioning plenums and sheet metal ducts. It offers an optimum combination of efficient sound absorption, low thermal conductivity and minimal air surface friction.

BENEFITS:

Ecobatt Insulation

KNAUF ECOBATT FIBERGLASS BUILDING INSULATION

DESCRIPTION:

Knauf EcoBatt Insulation are thermal and acoustical products made from highly resilient, inorganic glass fibers bonded by a thermosetting resin. The products are available unfaced or with kraft, foil, or flame-rated FSK-25 (Foil-Scrim-Kraft) foil facings.

APPLICATIONS:

Knauf EcoBatt Insulation are cost-effective thermal and acoustical barriers for energy-efficient construction. Their consistent quality, low dust, and clean-cutting resilient fibers make fabrication easy and installation fast. The products can be used in new and retrofit wood and metal frame applications in residential and commercial structures, as well as in manufactured housing applications. These applications include thermal and acoustical treatments to walls, ceilings, and floors.

In addition, High Density (HD) batts are available where optimal thermal performance is required and space for insulation is limited. High Density Cathedral Ceiling Batts, for example, deliver greater R-value in less space, so builders can increase R-values and still maintain adequate space for ventilation.

Knauf EcoBatt QuietTherm Insulation's excellent acoustical properties reduce sound transmission when properly installed in partition walls, ceilings, and floor assemblies.

Knauf EcoBatt Staple-Free Batts are flange-less kraft-faced batts which friction fit between wood studs eliminating the need to staple in place. These batts are designed for use in standard 2" x 4" wood framed construction where the stud spacing is no more than 16" on center.
