Universal Slab
For a wide range of thermal and acoustic insulation
applications in buildings, building services and industry
Description
Universal Slabs are unfaced, rock mineral wool slabs, available
in a range of densities from 33 to 200 kg/m3. The
standard product is supplied unfaced, but slabs can also be
manufactured with a factory applied foil or tissue facing and are
also available with a water repellent additive.
Application
Universal Slabs are used for a wide range of thermal and
acoustic insulation applications in buildings, building services
and industry.
Standards
Universal Slabs are made from non-combustible inorganic rock
wool, defined as mineral wool in BS 3533: 1981 and are manufactured
to a Quality Assurance system which complies with BS EN ISO
9001:2000.
Durability
Universal Slabs are odourless, non-hygroscopic, rot proof, do
not sustain vermin and will not encourage the growth of fungi,
mould or bacteria.
Environmental
Universal Slabs are free from CFCs, HCFCs and any other material
with ozone depletion potential in their manufacture and content and
represent no known threat to the environment.
Thermal Performance
The thermal conductivity of Universal Slabs varies with
density from 0.035 to 0.037 W/mK – see table below.
Fire Peformance
Universal Slab is classified as Euroclass A1 to BS EN ISO
13501-1.
- Wide range of densities
- Non-combustible
- Excellent thermal and acoustic properties
| ECOSE® Technology |
Knauf Insulation mineral wool products with ECOSE® Technology benefit from a revolutionary, bio-based, formaldehyde-free binder technology, based on rapidly renewable materials, instead of petro-based chemicals. It reduces embodied energy and delivers superior environmental sustainability.
The technology has been developed for Knauf Insulation’s glass and rock mineral wool products, enhancing their environmental credentials without affecting the thermal, acoustic or fire performance. Insulation products made with ECOSE® Technology contain no dye or artificial colours – the colour is completely natural.

Universal Slab’s
manufacture has a low impact on the environment and is classified
as Zero ODP and Zero GWP.
Fire Performance
Universal Slabs are classified as non-combustible to BS 476:
Part 4: 1970 (1984) and Euroclass A1, Class 1 Surface Spread of
Flame to BS 476: Part 7 1997 and Class ‘O’ to the Building
Regulations.
Moisture Resistance
Universal Slabs are non-wicking when tested to BS 2972: 1989:
Section 12. When exposed to 90% relative humidity at 20°C,
Universal Slabs absorb less than 0.004% of moisture.
Vapour Resistance
Universal Slabs have a vapour resistance of 7.00 MN.s/g.m
Operating Temperatures
Universal Slabs can be used up to continuous operating
temperatures of 850°C. This is dependent on density.
Handling and Storage
Universal Slabs are easy to handle and install, being
lightweight and easy to cut to size.
Universal Slabs are supplied in packs in Supakube pallets.
For longer term outside storage (stock or site) the pallets
should be stored under a secure waterproof covering.
Universal Slabs should not be left permanently exposed to the
elements.
