Scope of Use

Premier Glasswool provides thermal insulation for use in ceilings in both residential and commercial construction. 

Double-Layer Ceiling Installations:

  • For higher R-value ceiling installations 'double-layer' installation is recommended to reduce thermal bridging.
  • The bottom layer of insulation should be same thickness as the bottom chord, ideally high-density, and installed between the trusses.
  • The second (top) layer should be installed tight around the trusses with joins off-set to the bottom layer of insulation.
  • This will ensure a full cover of insulation and reduce heat-loss through the timber.

Segments are available in:

  • Thicknesses: 175, 195, 230, 260, 275mm
  • Standard width: 430mm 
  • R-values: R3.6, R4.1, R5.2, R6.3, R7.3
