Insulation without compromise is what you get from Knauf Insulation. With over 45 years of low-carbon leadership, our products do more while using less, contributing to thermal comfort, fire safety, sustainability, occupant health and peace and quiet. The complete package, from the best of global manufacturing expertise, delivered locally.
Products that do more
Every day, designers, contractors and installers use our products to achieve the highest standards of energy efficiency in their buildings. But our glasswool insulation does so much more than that.
It’s engineered to absorb sound, so it creates better indoor environments. It’s naturally non-combustible, so it reduces the risk of fire. And it’s low-carbon and low-VOC, so it meets higher standards for sustainability.
Glasswool is the world’s favourite insulation material, and we are the world leader in glasswool. Our products are based on German engineering, but shaped by45 years of manufacturing expertise from our 28 factories worldwide, including our cutting-edge regional facility in Johor, Malaysia.
Opened in 2021, it’s the most advanced glasswool manufacturing facility in Asia Pacific. We use it to make innovative products tailored to the specific needs of our customers in each country, which we then ship to them via an extremely efficient distribution operation.
Transforming IMU Campus with high-performance acoustic Insulation
Knauf Insulation glasswool products were used as part of the Knauf partition wall system to substantially upgrade the acoustic and thermal performance of the International Malaysia University.
We supply the best of glasswool, with an extensive range of batts, rolls and blow-in solutions made-to-measure for each application and every building type, including roofs, walls, and HVAC.
Glasswool has the lowest embodied carbon of any mainstream insulation material in Asia Pacific, and our products are even lower – containing just one tenth of the embodied carbon of generic glasswool. Made with recycled glass, trapped air and ECOSE®, our unique plant-based binder, our products ‘repay’ the carbon used in their manufacture in as little as 95 days.
We’re committed to going even further, with ambitious Group-wide sustainability targets to minimise the impact of our operations – on carbon emissions and beyond. We report on the environmental impact of our products and operations regularly, to rigorous independent standards and have released product specific EPDs to provide customers with objective and independent information about our products.
We don’t just make high-performance products. Our service offering supports customers at every stage of the process to make quality construction easier.
Our specifier customers benefit from technical resources and an extensive set of third-party accreditations and certifications. Our distribution partners get a comprehensive product range to meet every market need and industry-leading compression packaging for more efficient storage. And we make life easier for installers with products more pleasant to use and engineered for a faster fit.
