Without a doubt, the name of this company is known to anyone who has ever been seriously involved in construction or finishing. In Russian construction market There is a very wide range of materials from the Knauf company, and all of them are in constant high demand, since they are, one can safely say, a kind of standard of quality.

However, in most cases, the Knauf brand is firmly associated with materials for finishing work - these are dry and ready-to-use building mixtures, primers, plasterboard systems with all the elements necessary for them, kits for “dry screeds” and other similar products. Meanwhile, the company also produces a very wide range of high-quality thermal insulation materials.

Find out about the new generation of thermal insulation boards from the new article -

Knauf insulation, technical characteristics and types of which will be discussed in this publication, is one of the most optimal options for the construction of private houses, since such thermal insulation is characterized by natural components and an increased degree of safety for human health. And, of course, when choosing any building materials, an important criterion to which primary attention is always paid is the reputation of the manufacturer. Well, in terms of high reputation and quality guarantees for its products, Knauf is certainly “ahead of the rest.”

The Knauf company traces its history back to 1932 - it was founded by the Knauf brothers in Germany and at first bore the very long name “Reinische Gipsindustri und Bergwerksunternemen”. Even from the name it is clear that the original direction of the duration was associated with the production of plaster mixtures from gypsum. As this private enterprise developed, its product range gradually expanded, and in 1949 it opened in Bavaria new plant for the production of construction gypsum mixtures. In 1958, another “technological breakthrough” followed - the first production of sheets of the now so well-known plasterboard opened.

Since the 70s of the last century, the assortment of the Knauf company has gone beyond just gypsum products - mixtures using cement and lime are widely represented, the construction chemicals it produces and ready-made structural parts are gaining popularity. Well, the next stages in development are the development and implementation of the production of high-quality thermal insulation from fiberglass, basalt fiber, and foamed polystyrene.

The Knauf company came to Russia with its investments in production development in 1993. This was followed by other countries of the post-Union territory - representative offices and production lines opened in Kazakhstan, Moldova, Uzbekistan, Azerbaijan and Ukraine.

As a result, the company has grown from one small family-owned enterprise into the world's largest manufacturer of building materials. The transnational Knauf group of companies today includes more than 200 factories located in 37 countries in Europe, Asia, Northern and South America. In the territory Russian Federation products of this brand are manufactured at enterprises in Chelyabinsk, St. Petersburg, Novomoskovsk, Krasnogorsk, Kungur and other cities.

The obvious conclusion is that the company values ​​​​its reputation very much and tries to fully support the popularity of its products. Therefore, products with the Knauf brand have occupied one of the leading positions in the construction markets of the world for many decades, deserve every possible trust and never “stay on the shelves.”

It is also interesting that Knauf invests considerable funds in charity and social projects. Thus, the company invested in the reconstruction of the historical church of Tyutchev’s estate “Ovstug”, sponsored the Prize named after. V.A. Zhukovsky on best translation literary or humanitarian work from German into Russian, actively promotes other projects in the field of culture, architecture, and social policy.

So, as mentioned above, one of the areas of modern production activity of the Knauf company is the production various types high-quality thermal insulation. Let's turn to this issue.

Varieties of Knauf insulation based on material of manufacture

Knauf insulation materials can be divided according to several criteria. Therefore, in order to make a choice, you need to consider them in more detail.

The first criterion is the material of manufacture. So, the insulation of this nonsense can be made of polystyrene foam, or have a mineral fibrous structure.

• The “Therm” line of insulation products is the company’s expanded polystyrene thermal insulation « Knauf » , the products of which undergo special processing and therefore differ from traditional slabs made from this material by other manufacturers. Insulation from this line is widely used in private and industrial construction for thermal insulation of walls, ceilings, roofs, foundations, balconies and loggias, and even road surfaces.
• “Heat Knauf” is a line of insulation materials made from fiberglass and basalt fiber and used in private construction for thermal insulation of various parts of the house.
• "Knauf Insulation" - insulation materials positioned as professional thermal insulation made from basalt fiber. This type of insulation is also divided into several types, intended for use on various building structures.

Let's move on to a more detailed consideration of the characteristics of various types of insulation, to a more substantive division of them by area of ​​application.

Knauf Therm insulation

Insulation materials "Knauf Therm" based on polystyrene foam

"Knauf Therm" - technical characteristics and areas of application of insulation

Rigid Knauf Therm boards are produced using the same technology as other foam insulation materials made from pressed polystyrene foam. However, implementing the concept of maximum concern for consumer health and the preservation of the environment, Knauf technology developers have successfully replaced some toxic ingredients with completely safe components.

For example, the manufacturer abandoned chlorine-containing compounds, which are almost always included in the foam of other manufacturers, since these components significantly simplify the process of producing such insulation. In addition, these products can be considered safe, since they do not contain aldehyde and phenolic compounds, which emit toxic fumes that are extremely harmful to the health of those living in the house.

The general operational and technical characteristics of Knauf Therm polystyrene foam thermal insulators are as follows:

• The thermal conductivity coefficient, depending on the specific product and its operating conditions, lies in the range of 0.31÷0.42 W/m×˚С.
• Density – 10 ÷ 25 kg/m³.
• Compressive strength – 20÷170 kPa.
• The operating temperature ranges from – 135 to + 80 ˚С.
• The vapor permeability coefficient is 0.02÷0.03 mg/(m×h×Pa).
• The moisture absorption coefficient for 24 hours is 0.8÷2.0% by volume.
• Flammability class G1÷G3. Thanks to the treatment of Knauf polystyrene foam boards with modern fire retardants, they are a low-flammability, self-extinguishing heat insulator.

The slabs are sold in packages made of polyethylene protective film. Due to their low weight, they are easy to transport, carry, lift to floors, and install.

Advantages and disadvantages of polystyrene foam insulation of the “Therm” line

Before moving on to the technical aspects of Knauf Therm thermal insulation, it makes sense to consider its “pros” and “cons”. Such a review, by the way, is also capable of very “colorfully” characterizing the insulation from many important aspects, since not everyone understands the dry numbers of tabular parameters.

So, polystyrene foam insulation from Knauf is widely popular due to its many advantages. These include:

• Low thermal conductivity expanded polystyrene is the most important property for insulation. Thus, the heat-insulating qualities of this material, which has a thickness of 120 mm, can be compared with the same parameters of a brick wall of 450 mm or concrete structure 2100 mm thick.
• Moisture resistance. Expanded polystyrene practically does not absorb or allow moisture to pass through, so it is well suited for insulating areas of a building such as the foundation, plinth, facade and roof. Due to the fact that water does not penetrate into the structure of the slabs, it is not able to have a destructive effect on the material and reduce its thermal insulation properties.
• Small specific gravity . Knauf Therm slabs, despite their significant geometric dimensions, are quite light due to the fact that their structure consists of almost 98% air. Due to its low weight, this insulation will not weigh down the load-bearing structures or create additional load on the foundation of the building. The issues of loading and unloading, transporting material and delivering it directly to the work site are not particularly problematic. No reinforced fasteners are required for fixation.
• Sufficient mechanical compressive strength and resistance to corresponding deformations allows the use of such insulation for thermal insulation of load-bearing or loaded structures. For example, special slabs are excellent for thermal insulation of floors under screed and for creating “warm floors”.
• Wide temperature Range operation indicates that the material will function perfectly both at extremely low temperatures (without any theoretically possible restrictions) and at elevated ones, reaching up to 80 degrees, and for a short time - up to 95 degrees.
• Simplicity of installation work allows even an inexperienced master to carry them out. The slabs are easily marked and cut using a regular hacksaw, a sharp stationery or construction knife with replaceable blades.
• Low toxicity. Thanks to the exclusion from the original component composition a number of potentially hazardous components, Knauf polystyrene foam does not emit in normal operating conditions environment harmful substances.
• Affordable price. Pressed polystyrene foam boards traditionally belong to the category of the most affordable thermal insulation materials among all insulation materials presented on the construction market.

Despite all the numerous and very significant “advantages” of this material, it has no less significant “cons”. However, Knauf technologists, as far as possible, using innovative technologies, have reduced the negative aspects that are inherent in foam plastics from other manufacturers.

So, to the disadvantages polystyrene foam boards Their qualities include:

• Low resistance to open fire. This material belongs to the G3 flammability class. This, however, is not the highest degree of flammability, that is, the material is capable of “resisting” an open flame for a certain time, but nevertheless...

Thanks to modern materials and their processing technologies, the developers of Knauf Therm managed to make the insulation of this line self-extinguishing (according to the manufacturer, in the absence of contact with fire, the insulation instantly extinguishes on its own) However, even despite such innovations, at temperatures of the order of 300÷450 degrees, depending on its density, the material, when melted, is capable of becoming a fire spreader itself. At the same time, polystyrene foam, unfortunately, when burned also releases extremely dangerous gaseous products that can cause irreparable damage to human health.

• Low level of sound insulation. This quality of polystyrene foam is significantly inferior to insulation materials made with a fiber structure. True, it is possible for him to muffle quiet knocking and vibration, but a layer of polystyrene foam slabs is not able to contain acoustic waves - it does not reflect or absorb them, and in some cases even becomes a resonator, turning into a kind of “drum”.
• Low resistance to many aggressive chemical solutions. When solvents, alkalis or acids get on the boards, the structure of the material is very quickly destroyed, the insulation is deformed, and loses its thermal insulation qualities.
• Low resistance to ultraviolet radiation. Expanded polystyrene installed on external surfaces buildings, it is necessary to cover them with a layer of finishing material as quickly as possible, since the sun's rays destroy its structure.
• Low vapor permeability. Polystyrene foam is not a “breathable” material, and the lack of free movement of water vapor can lead to condensation between the insulating layer and the wall of the building - if they are incompatible in this parameter, as well as if installed incorrectly. In any case, this imposes certain restrictions on the use of Knauf Therm as thermal insulation in certain construction areas or requires a specific approach to the design of the insulating “pie”.
• Susceptibility to damage by rodents. Expanded polystyrene does not represent any nutritional value for mice or rats, but is not toxic to their bodies. The structure of the slabs allows these animals to easily damage the thermal insulation, and in products that are thicker, mice gnaw holes and even sometimes set up their own “dens.” Therefore, having chosen this material for external insulation of the lower part of the foundation and plinth, it must be reliably protected with a durable decorative and finishing layer that will

Types of polystyrene foam thermal insulation of the Knauf Therm line

The Knauf Therm line is divided into several groups of insulation materials, which are designed for thermal insulation of various structural elements of a house.

• "Knauf Therm Roof" ("Roof") are materials used for thermal insulation of roofs, interfloor and attic floors. In turn, this group of expanded polystyrene is divided as follows by area of ​​application:

— “Roof” is used for insulating flat roofs;

— “Roof NL” for pitched structures;

— “Roof Light” for insulating ceilings from inside the building.

Such slabs are manufactured in widths from 200 to 1200 mm, lengths from 600 to 3000 mm, thicknesses from 20 to 1000 mm (at the customer’s request) in increments of 10 mm. The material has a compressive strength of 100 kPa, a thermal conductivity coefficient of 0.039 W/m×°K, and a density of 17.0 kg/m³.

• "Knauf Therm Wall" ("Wall") - as is clear from the name, this insulation is usually used for thermal insulation of the walls of frame buildings, in ventilated facade systems. The slabs are produced in widths of 1000 mm, lengths of 1000÷1200 mm, thicknesses from 50 to 200 mm. The material has a compressive strength of 40 kPa, a thermal conductivity coefficient of 0.044 W/m×°K.
• "Knauf Therm Facade"– slabs intended for external thermal insulation of walls, for installation in ventilated facades, as well as using the “ wet facade", that is, under further plastering followed by finishing with decorative plaster, painting with facade paints or tiling. Facade slabs are produced in widths of 1000 mm, lengths of 1000÷1200 mm, thicknesses of 20.50, 100 and 150 mm. Compressive strength - 100 kPa, thermal conductivity coefficient 0.038 W/m×°K, density 17.0 kg/m³.
• "Knauf Therm Floor" ("Floor") – used for insulation of floors and ceilings and is designed for increased compressive load. The material does not shrink, so it can be used both in residential premises, where it will experience a small load, and in garages, where the pressure on it will increase significantly. This insulation has one of the highest compressive strength values, which is 120 kPa. Thanks to this property, after laying it, you can immediately install a reinforced concrete screed. The resulting structure, with high-quality concrete and compliance with the technology for pouring it, will last several decades without repair. Products are produced in widths of 1000 mm, lengths up to 3000 mm and thicknesses from 20 to 600 mm (in increments of 10 mm) and have a thermal conductivity coefficient of 0.038 W/m×°K, density 20.0 kg/m³.

If the insulation is installed in a room with low traffic intensity or other dynamic load, then slabs can be used in this capacity "Knauf Therm Concrete", which is designed for a load of 1.0 kgf/cm². In this case, you will be able to save money, since the price of this material is slightly lower than the previous option.

• "Knauf Therm Warm floor" – the surface of this material has a specific relief, which is designed for convenient installation of the contours of warm water floor pipes between its bosses.

This heat insulator has its own technical and operational characteristics, which include the following indicators:

— tensile strength – 140 kPa;

— vapor permeability – 0.032 mg/(m×h×Pa);

— thermal conductivity coefficient – ​​0.038 W/(m×°K);

— density – 140 (kg/m³).

The slabs are manufactured in a linear size of 1200 × 600 × 47 mm; the packaging (cardboard box) contains 10 products, which are designed to cover 7.20 m², the volume of material is 0.338 m³.

• "Knauf Therm Compack" is a universal insulation for internal insulation, therefore it can be used for all surfaces of residential premises, since a compressive strength parameter of 0.6 kgf/cm² is quite sufficient for this. However, this material is also suitable for insulating facades and basements, as well as other structural elements that do not require heavy loads.

"Knauf Therm Compack" have the following characteristics:

— tensile strength – 0.07 MPa;

— vapor permeability — 0.032 mg/(m×h×Pa);

— thermal conductivity coefficient — 0.032 W/(m×°K);

The slabs are produced in linear dimensions of 1000×600×50 mm.

• "Knauf Therm Perimeter 5 in 1" is an innovative material that has increased strength and intended for insulation of floors, foundations, etc. The slabs are produced in 600 mm width, 1000 mm length and 50 mm thickness. The material has a compressive strength of 170 kPa, a thermal conductivity coefficient of 0.038 W/m×°K, and a density of 23.0 kg/m³.

This type of thermal insulation has the highest technical and operational characteristics of all polystyrene foam boards from this manufacturer. The material is produced using special technologies developed by the company’s specialists, so they are not available to other manufacturers. Thanks to these developments, the slabs are able to withstand loads of 1.5 kgf/cm², so they are suitable for insulating any areas of the structure, including garage floors, as well as rooms with high intensity dynamic loads.

In the production process of such plates, cutting of blanks is not used, that is, the products are immediately pressed into the desired configuration. This means that there are practically no damaged granules in polystyrene foam. Besides. The panels are equipped with a stepped edge, providing seamless styling thermal insulation, and on the plates themselves there are marking lines, which also becomes an excellent help in work.

Insulation “Knauf Therm Perimeter 5 in 1” usually has an additional letter designation, which specifies the recommended area of ​​application:

— D- this product option is excellent for load-bearing structures, such as rafter systems, capital walls and foundations buried 6000 mm into the ground.

— C- slabs used for seamless external structures under decorative plaster. The surface of the products has good adhesion with building mixtures made on different bases, so finishing them will be quite simple.

— F- material for insulating walls, floors, foundations and basements.

Fiber insulation from Knauf

Advantages and disadvantages of Knauf mineral wool insulation

When choosing thermal insulation material for different applications, almost all developers purposefully look for an option that will combine the maximum amount positive qualities. The insulation should ideally be vapor-permeable, that is, “breathable”, made from environmentally friendly components, that is, not emit fumes harmful to humans, and most importantly, have minimal thermal conductivity. All these qualities are possessed by the fibrous insulation materials of the Knauf company, the range of which is quite wide and designed for use in different conditions operation of building structures.

If we consider each of the advantages separately, they will be characterized as follows:

• Low thermal conductivity insulation materials « Knauf » reliably retains generated heat in residential premises, which allows achieving comfortable temperatures at any time of the year, with very significant energy savings.
• High level of vapor permeability mineral wool materials help create a favorable microclimate in the house with a normal level of humidity, which reduces the risk of the appearance and development of colonies of fungus or mold on the walls and at their joints with the ceiling.
• Non-flammability mineral insulation. Similar thermal insulation materials « Knauf » belong to the NG class (non-flammable), which allows them to be used for thermal insulation in any type of building.
• High level of sound absorption makes this stuff great solution to ensure sound insulation of the house from external noise.
• Relatively light weight mats and rolls of insulation allows you to transport and install them yourself, without resorting to outside help. In addition, the insulation does not overload load-bearing structure Houses.
• Biological and chemical resistance . The components from which insulation is made do not enter into chemical reactions with other materials, they do not rot, have no odor, and also prevent the development of pathogenic microflora.
• Long service life– it is usually estimated at 50 years or more.
• "Manufacturability" of the material, that is, ease of installation. When installed between wooden stands or lags, the mats fit tightly to them, leaving no gaps. Insulation materials are resistant to vibration, do not shrink, do not delaminate and retain their shape for the entire period of operation.
• In the production of insulation, no harmful formaldehyde components, dyes or bleaches are used, therefore Knauf mineral wools are completely safe in this regard, for the residents of the house.

With so many advantages, mineral insulation « Knauf » still have some disadvantages, which you also need to be aware of when selecting the materials necessary for construction:

• One of the “disadvantages” for many is decisive - this high price, therefore, not every owner of a house under construction or reconstruction can afford such thermal insulation.
• Low level of moisture resistance. But, however, in order to preserve the insulation’s performance characteristics for as long as possible, it is subjected to a special treatment in the factory according to a method developed by the company. « Knauf » “Aquastatik” technology, which significantly increases the resistance of mineral wool to moisture.
• In the production of some materials for thermal insulation, glass fiber is used, which somewhat complicates the installation of insulation, since when working with it you have to protect open areas of the body, as well as organs respiratory system and eyes. To prevent the smallest particles of insulation fibers from entering the air space of residential premises, the thermal insulation layer must be covered with another material that does not allow dust to pass through.

Mineral wool "Knauf" - characteristics

Insulation materials made from fibers obtained from natural raw materials (such as sand, basalt and natural resins) processed according to modern technology"Knauf Ecose" are sold in rolls and mats. The material does not contain harmful substances, rodents and insects do not grow in it, and in addition, it is quite resistant to external influences even if installation errors are made.

This type of product is divided into two main lines:

• The first product line is TeploKnauf. Such materials can be safely used by owners of houses and apartments for thermal insulation of balconies, walls and floors from the inside of the building, as well as for facade surfaces. However, if this thermal insulator is planned to be used for external insulation, then it must be additionally protected from moisture by covering it with a waterproofing membrane.

This line of thermal insulators is made from both fiberglass obtained from molten sand and glass waste, and from basalt fibers.

• The second line is called “Knauf Insulation” and is intended mainly for professional builders. This group of insulation materials is produced only from basalt fibers, which are obtained by melting natural rocks.

To understand how these lines differ and what characteristics they have specific types insulation, it is worth considering each of them in more detail.

Mineral wool insulation from the TeploKnauf family

“TeploKnauf” is mineral wool produced using innovative technology and having so-called “3D elasticity”. Thanks to this quality, the material has increased elasticity, that is, it easily contracts and expands, returning to its original shape and thereby ensuring the tightest possible fit to insulated surfaces and to the elements of the frame sheathing, preventing the formation of cold bridges.

The materials of this line are perfectly adapted for use in residential construction; they are safe for home residents, as they are made without the use of acrylic and phenol-formaldehyde resins. Any of the mineral wools in this series undergoes a processing process water-repellent impregnations“Aquastatik” therefore has good moisture resistance, almost bordering on hydrophobicity.

In turn, “TeploKnauf” are divided into three groups, which have their own characteristics and purpose, which, in principle, is reflected in their name:

• "Warm Knauf House» – this material is intended for comprehensive insulation of private houses used for year-round use. It is produced in two versions, differing in thickness - 100 and 50 mm. The 100 mm thick insulation is called “Heat Knauf House +” and has slightly different characteristics. The main parameters are presented in the table below:

• "TeploKnauf Cottage"- this insulation material is produced using a technology called “three in one”, as it is able to effectively protect the structure from noise, cold and moisture. Thanks to these qualities, TeploKnauf Cottage is excellent for wall insulation and sound insulation internal partitions, as well as heat and sound insulation of roofs and attic floors. The material is produced in slabs and rolls, which have a thickness of 50 mm. In addition to them, you can find “Heat Knauf Cottage +” on sale, which is produced only in slabs and has a thickness of 100 mm.

These materials have the following technical characteristics:

• « HeatKnauf Dacha"– this insulation option is produced for country houses used seasonally, for outbuildings, summer kitchens and sheds, so they have more high thermal conductivity and less resistance to stress. The material is produced only in rolls and has the following characteristics:

• "HeatKnauf for roofing"- This roll insulation, as is already clear from the name, is intended for insulating roof structures, so it has all the qualities necessary for this and is available in thicknesses of 50 and 150 mm.

The material has protection reinforced with moisture-repellent impregnations, and is given the following technical and operational characteristics:

• "HeatKnauf for floors"– this material also has a narrowly targeted purpose, is produced in rolls and has a thickness of 50 mm. It goes well with the insulation materials “TeploKnauf Cottage” and “TeploKnauf for Roofing” when deciding to comprehensively insulate a building.

The manufacturer has also developed and produces a more compact version of this insulation, which is called “Knauf Heat for Mini Floors”, which differs from the basic products in some parameters:

Insulation materials rulers"Knauf Insulation"

This group of insulation materials has improved characteristics and is designed for a longer service life. This material is produced only from basalt fibers, the release form is in the form of rolls or slabs. In addition, some types also have a foil coating.

The general characteristics of Knauf Insulation basalt heat insulators look something like this:

• The thermal conductivity coefficient varies in the range from 0.032 to 0.041 W/m×˚С.
• Compressive strength - 8÷60 kPa.
• Vapor permeability – 0.51÷0.55 mg/(m×h×Pa).
• Moisture absorption during the first day of the total volume of material does not exceed 2% and this value is the limit.
• Flammability class NG (absolutely non-flammable material).

The insulation goes on sale in packages in a compressed state, and when unpacked it expands, taking on its original volume. The elasticity of the material greatly simplifies its installation in the frame of the insulated area of ​​the building.

The Knauf Insulation line of heat insulators, like all other materials from this manufacturer, is divided by area of ​​application. The illustration below shows the recommended types of insulation of this family when performing thermal insulation work in an ordinary country house.

If someone does not understand the icons indicated in the diagram, then the table below gives their explanation:

Pitched roof	Interfloor ceilings	Attic floor
Floors with joists	External walls	Internal partitions

• Insulation materials "Knauf Facade" is divided into two types - these are “ Thermo Plate 032" and« Thermo Plate 034". This material is used to create insulated ventilated facades and sandwich panels, as a middle and outer layer for brick walls, and is also fixed to the surface wall structures under their casing

In addition, the products are used for insulation of agro-industrial complexes, in the construction of healthcare facilities, industrial and public buildings. Facade insulation mats are soft to the touch, elastic, but do not deform and practically do not crumble. If the thermal insulation installation technology is followed correctly, it is distinguished by a very impressive durability, measured over many decades.

The products have good water resistance, as they have undergone special treatment using the Aquastatik technology.

• "Knauf Thermo Plate 037"– this material is excellent for insulating attic floors and rafter systems pitched roofs. In addition, it is used for floor insulation, laid between joists, as well as for sound insulation of external walls and internal partitions.

Table of its technical and linear characteristics:

• « Knauf Thermo Roll 040"– this is a roll insulation used for heat and sound insulation horizontal surfaces, such as interfloor and attic floors, as well as for floors, but only along the joists, that is, without loading on the thermal insulation itself.

Sometimes it is possible to use it for insulation of pitched roofs, as well as for internal partitions that are not load-bearing and therefore do not experience heavy loads.

Technical and operational characteristics are shown in the table:

The Knauf Thermo Roll 040 insulation has another remarkable quality. During its production, ready-made thermal insulation mats are compressed: in a regular single package - twice, and in a special multi-pack - even eight times! This gives enormous advantages when organizing warehousing, loading and unloading operations, and transporting material. After opening the package, insulation mats quickly take on the volume specified by them. Plus, this “desire” for expansion ensures the tightest fit of thermal insulation to the structural elements of the roof or ceilings.

• "Knauf Acoustic Partition" It is produced in rolls and slabs that have increased elasticity. These products are manufactured according to special technology, which allows you to achieve increased levels of noise insulation of premises that comply with the standards prescribed in SNiP 23-03-2003 “Noise Protection”.

This material is most often used for sound insulation in frame partition systems in which Knauf plasterboard sheets are used for cladding.

• "Knauf Pitched Roof" It is also produced in the form of slabs and rolls, so you can choose an option that is convenient for work. This material is used for thermal insulation not only of pitched roofs, but also for attic floors. Products are produced in four types, having different sizes and characteristics. These include such insulation materials as “Knauf Thermo Roll 034” and “Knauf Thermo Roll 034 A”, “Knauf Thermo Roll 037” and “Knauf Thermo Roll 037 A”

In addition to those described above, the Knauf company produces basalt-based heat insulators with foil or fiberglass reinforcing coating. They also belong to the “Insulation” group:

• "Knauf NTV"- these are hydrophobized products produced in the form of plates, covered with foil or fiberglass. This material option is most often used for insulation. industrial equipment, as well as for installation in ventilated facades. The slabs are manufactured in non-standard size for basalt insulation products, and this must be taken into account when planning the marking and installation of the sheathing.

• "Knauf LMF AluR" – This mineral insulation with a foil layer is produced in mats, which are divided into blocks by transverse slots.

Thanks to this structure, the heat insulator is convenient to use for insulating non-standard semicircular or round building structures, heated floors, pipelines and other building elements. The material serves not only as thermal insulation for structures, but also as protection against the spread of noise, and is a good fireproof insulation. Maximum temperature The operating temperature of this material is + 600 degrees, but here it must be clarified that on the surface of the aluminum layer the temperature should not exceed + 100 degrees.

• "Knauf FKD"- This basalt slabs with an external reinforcing layer of fiberglass mesh. They are designed for insulation, sound insulation and fire protection of facades under plaster cladding.

Products are sold in plastic packaging, which may contain different quantities material by area - this depends on its thickness, which, in turn, is presented in a wide variety - from 20 to 160 mm.

• «Knauf WM 640/660 GG"is an industrial insulation reinforced with galvanized mesh, produced in the form of rolls.

The insulation has a water-repellent treatment throughout its entire thickness and is intended for thermal insulation, protection from external noise and for fire insulation of various technical designs, chimneys, boiler equipment and tanks. The maximum operating temperature of the material reaches +640÷660 degrees.

• "Knauf PVT" - insulation boards produced specifically for the installation of floating screeds, but can also be used for installation under a concrete layer of floors on the ground. In addition, they are used for vertical structures operating under high loads, such as load-bearing walls or rafter systems.

The binder for the fibers of the material is a synthetic resin. The insulation is hydrophobized throughout its entire thickness, has an increased density, and therefore is able to perform its functions under the listed operating conditions.

• "Knauf DDP"– this insulation is used as the bottom layer in thermal insulation systems consisting of two layers, used, for example, for flat roofs. In addition, such products are suitable for heat and sound insulation of floors and ceilings between floors, basement floors, as well as electrically heated surfaces.

What insulation layer is needed for a specific case of thermal insulation work?

The availability of such a large number of types of Knauf thermal insulation on sale can make it difficult to choose what is necessary for a particular site (building structural element) that requires insulation - but here you can rely on the recommendations received in the article. But the amount of material will depend on the area of ​​the insulated structure and the required thickness of thermal insulation.

To get answers to such questions, it is recommended to contact specialists who will determine on site all the necessary thermal insulation parameters. But very often such calculations can be carried out independently, with a sufficient degree of accuracy.

We will not tell you how to find the area of ​​an insulated structure in this article - there is a separate publication for this.

Calculate area? - no problem!

It happens that the intricate configuration of a room, wall, roof slope or other building structure poses a dead end when determining the area. If such a situation occurs, refer to the publication on our portal, specifically dedicated to it - various options are discussed there, and convenient online calculation calculators are provided.

This means that the main problem is how to determine the required thickness of insulation. But here a certain thermal engineering calculation is required. We will not give the formulas - they are all included in the program, implemented in an online calculator, which will simplify such calculations as much as possible.

The meaning of the calculation lies in the fact that a properly insulated building structure must have a total heat transfer resistance no lower than that established by SNiP for a specific region (in accordance with its climatic characteristics). This value includes the thermal resistance of the structure itself plus the resistance of the insulation. Thus, if the design parameters are known (its structure, the thickness of the layers and the material of their manufacture), then it is easy to calculate what thickness of insulation is needed to make up for the “deficit” of thermal resistance that is missing to the normalized value.
