EUROPEAN CERTIFICATION BOARD
All glasswool products manufactured by Knauf Insulation are made of non-classified fibres (fibres that are less bio-persistent than every day dust) and are certified by EUCEB. EUCEB, European Certification Board of Mineral Wool Products - www.euceb.org, is a voluntary initiative by the mineral wool industry. It is an independent certification authority that guarantees that products are made of fibres, which comply with the exoneration criteria for carcinogenicity (Note Q) of the Regulation (EC) 1272/2008.To help user’s identify the safety of our glasswool fibres the EUCEB logo is displayed on our product packaging and/or labels.
NON-COMBUSTIBLE CERTIFICATION
Non-combustible is a defined term in the Building Code of Australia (BCA). The compliance of a material to the Building Code of Australia (BCA) non-combustibility definition can be determined by conducting an AS 1530.1 standard combustibility test. If the material satisfies the criteria outlined in the test method the material is not deemed combustible. Knauf Insulation products have been independently tested in NATA accredited laboratories; giving end users confidence in the standard of the test and procedures.
INDOOR AIR QUALITY
Eurofins “Indoor Air Comfort” (IAC) product certification is an innovative tool to show compliance of a product with low VOC emissions.
Knauf Insulation glasswool is certified as achieving a Gold Standard – this is the highest standard available today that meets all existing criteria with regards to Indoor Air Quality.
