Rockwool Comfortbatt is a stone wool insulation batt for wood studs and joists. It is used in new residential construction and in renovations, and it fits walls, attics, ceilings and floor frames.
The batt is semi-rigid with a flexible edge. The edge compresses as the batt is inserted into the frame, then springs back to expand against the studs for a complete fill. This lets the batt make up for normal variations in stud spacing caused by distortion or warping, so the expected R-value is achieved.
The insulation cuts easily and is non-combustible. It absorbs sound well, absorbs little moisture and resists water. It does not rot or promote the growth of fungi or mildew. It is made from natural and recycled materials, and both the product and the process are CFC and HCFC free. It can contribute to earning LEED points.
