PAROC stone wool products are a durable and fire-safe choice for all your building insulation needs.

Different floors demand different insulation solutions. Intermediate floors have to be well insulated against noise between the floors. Ventilated floors act like a facade below the building, while ground slabs have high demands for moisture movement. A well-insulated floor structure creates a good sound environment and keeps you feet warm on cold winter days.

Non-capillary PAROC stone wool is the ideal material for under-slab insulation.

An effective floating floor has as a heavy top layer and soft bottom layer. PAROC stone wool under concrete slabs that are at least 50 mm thick is the optimal solution for floating floors.

PAROC step sound insulation minimises structural borne (step sound) noise and improves living comfort in the building.

The easiest way to improve the step sound insulation of old timber floors is to remove all old floor material from the top of the bearing joists. Depending on the condition of the old insulation, it can be left intact or removed and replaced with PAROC eXtra.

PAROC stone wool is excellent material for use in sound insulation and sound absorption constructions. Due to the unique properties of stone wool, it is widely used in acoustic ceiling, floating floor and partition wall applications.

Ventilated floors are a highly energy efficient solution. Ventilated space under the floor lets you freely select insulation thickness. Efficient ventilation below the floor structure also helps control the effects of moisture.

A suspended or ventilated timber floor is detached from the ground with a ventilated subfloor space below. The structure of ventilated floors is very similar to wall construction.

A suspended or ventilated timber floor is detached from the ground with a ventilated subfloor space below. Old insulation used in ventilated floors usually settles over time, creating to a gap between the floor surface and insulation layer. Gaps between the floor joists and insulation allow cold air to easily spread under the floor surface, which cools down the whole floor surface.
