Glass wool insulation is very useful because of its thermal and acoustic properties as its light weight. Because if its high demand there are lots of glass wool exporters in India who supplies it to the wholesalers and dealers who provide insulation in commercial and residential buildings. Glass wool is made from fibreglass which is arranged to produce a kind of texture which is of wool.

The fibres in glasswool held together with a binding agent, that helps to hold together and give strength to the fibres in glass that work to trap air between them and stops passing the air so the heat passed through the fibres can't penetrate far as the material itself does not conduct heat very well and the air pockets are isolated from each other. Glasswool is the most resistant materials to fire which requires extremely high temperature to burn.

If a person inhale glass wool fibers during installation, most of the fibers dissolve inside body with no health effects as its non-carcinogenic so it does not cause cancer in humans. Glass wool exporters in India is getting very popular these days and there are lots of suppliers and technicians, who are doing insulation work very easily and effectively. Glass wool insulation should be fixed with wall through plastic batten and screw anchor inside plastic to reduce the thermal bridge effect. Insulation can be attached with the wall by using adhesive but as adhesive cannot guarantee perfect adhesion to the irregular surfaces and can be degraded by atmospheric agents it is recommended to use mechanical fastening.

In new construction, both fixing methods may be applied. According to some estimates, thermal insulation made from fiberglass and its alternatives conserves much energy lost in its production and it may reduce residential energy cost. However expertise says that when the installer breathes in fiberglass as it is not harmful for health as it considered as non carcinogenic. Many manufacturers of glass wool exporters in India use recycled glass in the production process as it is used for insulating in every building component from foundation walls to attics to ductwork. There are so many companies in India and all over the world which deals with glasswool insulation and provides the best results with their services.
