Overview

With a rise in industrialization and logistics requirements, there is a growth in the number of PEB’s / metal buildings. Some of the major challenges faced in such structures are:

  1. 1. Solar heat ingress through roof and walls, causing thermal discomfort
  2. 2. High electricity costs
  3. 3. Outside noise disturbances due to rain drumming, vehicles and other sources

To address these problems, Saint-Gobain manufactures glass wool and stone wool insulation which help in:

Temperature reduction

Energy
Saving

Acoustic comfort / noise control

Fire
Safety

A comfortable and quieter working environment increases the labour productivity. All this is achieved without compromising the safety of the space. With a fire rating of class ‘A1’ and EUCEB certification, we manufacture glass wool which is fire rated and health safe.

The long-term benefits of energy saving and improved productivity by using insulation are very high vis-à-vis its purchase cost.

Application

Roof

Roof construction is done in 2 ways :

  1. Single skin : Single metal sheet with underdeck insulation
  2. Double skin : Insulation is installed between two metal sheets, this is also called overdeck insulation

Underdeck

One of the major aspects of an underdeck insulation is weight. Heavy insulation increases the structural load on the system. As a result, it will increase the accessories and associated costs to support the insulation.
Our glass wool insulation for this application has the following features :

  • Lightweight and sustainable
  • Fast and easy application
  • Rolls of long lengths upto 30 m
  • Low wastage during installation using cut to size lengths
  • Weld mesh free application using our high strength facings
  • Both side lamination (facing) for easy handling and protection of insulation from water leakage
  • Available in customized thicknesses, to meet customer’s technical and economical requirements

Overdeck

We have insulation for overdeck application which is generally used in specific PEB buildings and infrastructure projects like airports and railway stations.

In such cases, sometimes additional mechanical loads can be expected. Herein, we can offer high density glass wool or stone wool insulation as per customer’s requirement.

Application

Wall

The external wall, being part of the building envelope, is exposed to solar heat gain. To reduce thermal transmission through the wall, a sufficient level of insulation is required to meet the minimum prescriptive values as per ECBC 2017.

For such requirements, we offer insulation in both roll and board forms with aesthetically appealing laminations.
