Rockwool ‘Duo Rock’
Thermal insulation slabs for warm flat roofs of concrete / timber decks
‘DuoRock is the economic solution, offering thermal, firesafe and acoustic insulation. Its robust surface is strong enough to bear normal foot traffic for installation and inspections. The dual density roofing boards are manufactured with a high density, robust top surface.
DuoRock roofing boards should be laid with staggered joints wherever possible and tightly butted to avoid gaps. Ensure that the dense layer is used on the upper side.
DuoRock will normally enhance the thermal performance of the roof in excess of building regulation requirements.
Thermal conductivity (K value)= 0.038W/mK.’
