Fiber glass batts or rolls are high-quality flexible products made from mineral fibers, and are used in various construction applications for thermal and acoustical insulation of walls, ceilings and floors. Unfaced insulation is manufactured in increased widths to permit frictionfit installation in wall cavities. They are available in widths suited to the standard spacing of wall studs and attic or floor joists, and the continuous rolls can be hand-cut and trimmed to fit. Batts are also available with vapor retarder facings, such as CertainTeed's MemBrain^TM and The Smart Vapor Retarder. Batts with a special flame-resistant facing are available in various widths for basement walls where the insulation will be left exposed. Kraft Faced insulation is manufactured with an integral vapor retarder. Theb kraft facing includes attachment flanges at the edges that are used for either face or inset stapling. The kraft facing, applied with asphalt to the fiber glass insulation, has a vapor transmission (permeance) rating of one perm or less.

At SDI we use CertainTeed Standard Fiber Glass Building Insulation, which is a thermally and acoustically efficient inorganic insulation used for the entire home or office building. It is lightweight and flexible which makes for a quick installation. Because this fiber glass is inorganic it is noncombustible, noncorrosive and will not deteriorate or absorb moisture. And because it is a higher density fiberglass it provides added energy savings to any building. As with all CertainTeed products, fiber glass batts are GREENGUARD® Certified for superior indoor air quality performance.

SDI's highly experienced sales team is here to help you determine the best insulation system for your residential or commercial project. We will work with your budget and plans to provide you with superior thermal and acoustical performance.
