Applications
Ceiling cavities in domestic dwellings, installed between standard timber or steel ceiling joists before internal linings are fixed. Suited to climate zones where a higher R-value is required to meet or exceed the energy efficiency provisions of the National Construction Code. Pre-stiffened batts hold their position without sagging and offer secondary acoustic benefit by absorbing airborne sound within the ceiling cavity.

Frequently asked questions
Does R5.0 provide acoustic benefits as well as thermal insulation?
Yes. Glasswool batts absorb airborne sound in addition to resisting heat transfer, contributing to both the thermal and acoustic comfort of the building occupants.
Can these batts be installed in an existing home?
Yes, where ceiling access permits. Batts should be installed before the internal lining is fixed in new builds, but can be placed in accessible existing ceiling cavities.
What is the difference between the 430 mm and 580 mm widths?
The 430 mm width suits 450 mm joist centres and the 580 mm width suits 600 mm joist centres, matching the two standard timber framing spacings used in Australian residential construction.
