Milestones That Built Specifier Trust

From early fiberglass lines to ECOSE Technology binders and Inwood, WV capacity, Knauf Insulation has expanded documentation contractors need for thermal bridging control and moisture vapor transmission reviews.

1932

Glass Mineral Wool Roots

Industrial-scale glass mineral wool production established the manufacturing discipline behind today’s batt and board R-value consistency.

2009

ECOSE Technology Rollout

Plant-based binder chemistry reduced formaldehyde-based binders while keeping dimensional stability across EcoBatt cavity fills.

2018

Inwood Capacity Expansion

North American distribution strengthened through Inwood, WV operations supporting blown-in and batt SKUs for production builders.

Building Segments We Insulate

Knauf Insulation products align with wall, attic, and mechanical cavities where thermal conductivity and fire resistance rating documentation drive submittals.

Residential Framing

R-13 to R-21 cavity batts and blown attic fills matched to IRC climate zones.

Multifamily Acoustics

Assemblies oriented toward STC rating targets between units and corridors.

Commercial Envelopes

Continuous and cavity insulation options that help limit thermal bridging at steel studs.

Mechanical Spaces

Pipe insulation and equipment wraps for HVAC closets and mechanical rooms.

What Project Teams Report

Feedback from general contractors and insulation subcontractors who specify Knauf Insulation on production schedules.

★★★★★
“EcoBatt R-19 bags arrived labeled clearly for climate zone 4 walls. Our crew cut fewer callbacks on compression gaps after the opening 40 units.”
