EPD: Mineral wool Insulation, high density, R = 1 m2K/W, 33.8 mm, 3.49 kg/m2, 103 kg/m3, Thermafiber Mineral Wool (Owens Corning)

Thermafiber Mineral Wool Insulation products are comprised of semi- rigid and rigid boards and batts. Mineral wool resists mold, fungi, and is vermin proof due to its being an inorganic material. The R-value of Thermafiber Mineral Wool Insulation ranges from 3.7 - 4.3 per inch of thickness. It is available in multiple thicknesses, densities, and various facings by product type. Reflected by its R-value, mineral wool’s insulating performance is achieved by its densely packed fibers. Its high resistance to heat flow translates into year-round comfort and energy savings.
