The Insulation Council of Australia and New Zealand and the CSIRO identified some time ago that heat gain and loss in homes through walls represented 15 percent of energy lost.
Insulating walls in homes is therefore an important component to providing the best result for constructing an Energy Efficient home.
Neurock Wall Insulation Batts are developed in sizes to suit residential wall framing.
Specifically manufactured to suit both timber and steel frame wall sizes.
Available in a wide range of R values and densities, they are suitable for all residential projects.
Neurock also provides James Hardie Rockwool Fire Wall Batts for use in James Hardie Boundary Fire Wall System. These products not only offer fire protection, but also Thermal protection for homes.

Continuous Insulation and Thermal Bridging are due to be ratified as National Construction Code requirements for new homes from September, 2022 pending approval by the various ministers in the relevant States and Territories.
Neurock VapourBreakTM is a continuous insulation barrier suited for installation behind various residential cladding applications and offers a continuous insulation and thermal break to minimise thermal bridging.
