Metal Roof Insulation

Metal roof insulation is crucial for improving energy efficiency, acoustics, comfort, and living standards in both moderns residential and commercial buildings.

In an uninsulated building, the majority of thermal transmission is through the roof, making insulation a top priority.

The non-combustible nature of stone wool insulation makes it a robust choice for fire safety too. But it’s the superior sound insulation of the material which makes ROCKWOOL metal roof insulation solutions an ideal choice for built-up applications.

Why do we need metal roof insulation?

As heat rises, most energy loss is usually through the roof of a building. Metal roof insulation can enhance the energy efficiency of a building and help to lower your electricity bill.

Stone wool products act as an infill between two metal sheets effectively reduces heat transmission and rain noise from entering into the building envelope through the roof. Choices of density are available to meet building requirements.

Installing effective metal roof insulation barriers offers protection from rain, hail, and overheating on hotter days.

Stone wool insulation also provides excellent acoustics for a metal roof – protection from rain, heat, and noise, which often pose a problem for metallic roof coverings.

Calculator and savings

A valuable investment for the future, it offers a relatively fast payback time in terms of money, energy and carbon footprint1

Insulation thickness can be adjusted to meet a wide array of customer specifications.
