🌟 What an inspiring time at the World of Modular Europe 2024! We had an incredible two days in Brussels, engaging with industry leaders, customers, innovators, and experts from across the globe. It was an excellent opportunity to demonstrate our innovative solutions for offsite construction and connect with professionals who share our commitment to high-performing, safe, and sustainable modular construction solutions. The event featured insightful discussions and showcased exciting developments, reinforcing the shared vision for the future of prefabricated construction. A special thank you to the Modular Building Institute for hosting such a valuable event and to Skilpod for organising a visit to their facility in Belgium and for their warm hospitality. The conversations, insights, and collaborations that began here will shape the future of excellence and success in the modular building industry. #KnaufInsulation #BetterBuildings #ModularBuildings #PrefabConstruction #OffsiteConstruction #SustainableConstruction #ForABetterWorld #ThankYou
About us
Knauf Insulation is one of the world’s largest manufacturers of insulation products and solutions. Each day we push ourselves and remain entirely dedicated to supporting our customers in meeting the rising demand for energy efficiency and sustainability in homes, non-residential buildings and industrial applications. A diverse range of insulation solutions As an insulation leader, we offer a complete product portfolio for even the most diverse building challenges. Our high-quality mineral wool insulation materials include glass mineral wool with ECOSE® Technology, rock mineral wool, blowing (or loose) wool and wood wool. Energy efficiency is at the heart of our business We are deeply committed to energy efficiency and recognise the pivotal role that buildings play in Europe’s battle against climate change. With buildings accounting for 40% of energy consumption and 38% of Co2 emissions, addressing this issue is critical. To achieve net zero by 2050, we must act now if we want to build a chance to halve these carbon emissions by 2030. This is why we actively advocate to keep energy efficient at the heart of public debate in every country where we operate.Continued focus on product and development We are actively addressing the growing global demand for effective solutions to enhance the energy efficiency of existing buildings and minimise the heating energy requirements of new builds. With an emphasis on driving forward the advancement of energy efficient insulation materials and insulation systems, we are tackling these challenges head on.

Having trouble sleeping at night? Maybe the acoustics in your room are to blame. The WHO reports that nighttime noise levels above 40 dB can lead to serious health issues, including cardiovascular diseases, reduced cognitive performance in children, severe annoyance, sleep disturbances, and tinnitus. This proves that integrating acoustic properties into your building designs is essential, especially for spaces like hospitals or hotels. More information on how to integrate acoustic properties into your designs? https://lnkd.in/e9EjbEM5 #KnaufInsulation #AcousticSolutions #BetterBuildings

More insulation means better soundproofing, right? Not entirely, as the effectiveness of soundproofing stands or falls on the materials and installation methods used.

When specifying insulation, it’s crucial to think beyond winter. With rising temperatures, insulation must ensure comfort in summer too. Here’s what to consider: 1️⃣ R-value: This measures an insulation material’s resistance to heat transfer. However, a higher R-value doesn’t always guarantee better performance due to potential installation issues and material degradation, known as the ‘performance gap.’ 2️⃣ Real world performance: Insulation must be practical to install. Materials like rigid boards might not fit perfectly, creating gaps that affect airtightness. Proper installation is key to bridging this performance gap. Why choose mineral wool insulation? Easily adapts to movement and uneven surfaces, ensuring a snug fit. Fits tightly together, minimising air gaps and ensuring good airtightness. Maintains performance over time and resists temperature changes. Learn more about the performance gap? 👉 https://lnkd.in/e_V7fsVH #KnaufInsulation #SummerComfort #EnergyEfficiency

Barking dogs, slamming doors, blaring music … Regular exposure to unwanted noise can do more than just disrupt your peace – it can also impact your health, productivity, and overall well-being. Whether it's at work, school, or even while relaxing at home or in public spaces, noise pollution can contribute to stress, poor sleep, and lower quality of life. That’s why considering the acoustic performance of a building is crucial for creating environments that promote comfort and well-being. Find out how poor acoustics can impact your space: https://lnkd.in/e9EjbEM5 #KnaufInsulation #AcousticSolutions #BetterBuildings

🌍🏘️ Today marks the beginning of the #WorldGreenBuildingWeek2024. At Knauf Insulation, we’re proud to be #BuildingTheTransition for a sustainable future. As a partner of the World Green Building Council, we are committed to making a real difference by reducing energy consumption and improving the energy efficiency of our built environment. With buildings contributing 34% of global energy consumption, the need for sustainable solutions is more urgent than ever. At Knauf Insulation, we are in the business of sustainability, developing products and solutions that lower energy usage and reduce emissions of buildings. A prime example is the Belgian social housing project in Halle, where we carried out high-quality renovation of 63 social housing units, achieving an average 14% reduction in energy consumption and 60% reduction in energy costs. This renovation not only increased energy efficiency but also improved living conditions for residents. 🌱 🎥 Check out this video to see how we are making an impact towards greener buildings 👉 https://lnkd.in/ewup2B42 #WGBW2024 #KnaufInsulation #ForABetterWorld #Sustainability #EnergyEfficiency
