How Superglass is using Glass Science to enhance the thermal and acoustic performance of their insulation products

Insulation may be a hidden component, but the contribution it can make to the efficiency and comfort of a building should never be underestimated. It is therefore critical in the design process to specify insulation which not just meets pre-determined performance standards but delivers a sustainable solution as well. Mineral wool has long been a popular choice, but with advancements in technology and manufacturing a new standard of Glass mineral wool is delivering superior performance, with a product made from up to 84% recycled consumer glass. 

As one of the UK's leading manufacturers of glass mineral wool insulation, Superglass' pioneering Glass Science has transformed the effect their products have in providing superior levels of acoustic and thermal performance to the building envelope. New, state of the art manufacturing and processing equipment is putting this theory into practice, with significantly increased capacity and a comprehensive range of insulation solutions which look better, compress better and most importantly help building designers to meet the increasingly stringent standards dictated by UK Building Regulations.
