A semi-rigid, non-combustible glass mineral wool slab with no-added formaldehyde, water repellent binder, suitable for curtain wall or rainscreen cladding applications requiring thermal and acoustic performance. The FS moisture barrier does not contain combustible Kraft paper which improves the insulations resistance to fire. Benefits Lightweight but rigid and robust Non-combustible Designed to adapt to minor imperfections in substrates Excellent moisture resistance Application Façade Slab 35 is used for the thermal insulation of rainscreen and curtain wall cladding systems. Façade Slab 35 is lightweight but rigid enough to resist the compression forces generated when fixing the insulation slabs to the buildings substrate. The water repellent additive in Façade Slab 35 provides a further line of defence against moisture penetration. Standards Façade Slab 35 is manufactured in accordance with BS EN 13162, OHSAS 18001 Occupational Health and Safety Management Systems, ISO 14001 Environmental Management Systems, and ISO 9001 Quality Management Systems, as certified by Bureau Veritas. Certification Façade Slab 35 are certified under DCL Product Conformity, EUCEB for conformity of fibres produced with the requirements of Note Q of the Regulation (EC) No 1272.2008 of EP and EC, EUROFINS Indoor Air Quality Gold, SASO Product Conformity. Durability Façade Slab 35 is odourless, rot proof, non-hygroscopic, does not sustain vermin and will not encourage the growth of fungi, mould or bacteria. Environmental Façade Slab 35 represents no known threat to the environment and has zero Ozone Depletion Potential and zero Global Warming Potential. Water Vapor Permeance Façade Slab 35 have a maximum water vapor permeance of 0.02 perms as per ASTM E96, Procedure A. Thermal Performance The U-value of a proprietary rainscreen and curtainwall cladding system is dependent on the degree of thermal bridging in the system. Calculations produced by Knauf Insulation’s Technical Services Department are as per Dubai Municipality and ESTIDAMA norms. Facade Slab 35 is listed on Dubai Municipality U-Value calculation sheet under layer reference code 06.079.12 Handling and storage Facade Slab 35 is easy to handle and install, being lightweight and easily cut to size, where necessary. It is supplied enclosed in polythene which is designed for short term protection only. For longer term protection on site, the product should be stored either indoors, or under cover and off the ground. Façade Slab 35 should not be left permanently exposed to the elements. Bespoke Sizes Façade Slab 35 is available in bespoke dimensions to suit system specific thermal requirements in thicknesses from 50 to 200mm. Bespoke products are subject to minimum order quantities.
