Our Expert Says

160mm FactoryClad Roll 40 is worth thinking about on the wall as much as overhead. Built-up metal walls run on side rails rather than purlins, and at this depth the spacer system wants specifying for 160mm from the outset instead of being asked to stretch to it late on. It gives a flat 4.00 m²K/W, and coverage works out at 8.46m² a roll or 203.04m² a pallet, which is the figure you actually need when pricing a whole elevation. On farms I see this depth going into buildings that have changed use: sheds turned into workshops, storage units or light industrial lets, where the space is now heated and worked in all day and the original cladding was never specified for that.

Product Description

160mm Knauf FactoryClad Roll 40 is a glass mineral wool insulation roll for built-up metal roof and wall systems, and a depth that comes up as often on the wall as it does on the roof. Built-up metal walls are framed on side rails rather than purlins, with the quilt held off the liner sheet by a bracket and rail spacer system before the outer profiled sheet is fixed. At 160mm that spacer system needs specifying for the depth rather than being asked to accommodate it after the fact.

Each roll measures 7.05m by 1200mm and covers 8.46m², with 24 rolls to a pallet giving 203.04m². Declared thermal conductivity is 0.040 W/mK, producing a thermal resistance of exactly 4.00 m²K/W, and water vapour resistivity is 5.00 MNs/g.m. Published embodied carbon is 1.38 kgCO2e/m² across stages A1 to A3 and 1.83 kgCO2e/m² across A1 to C4. For a quantity, divide the net area of the roof slope or elevation by 8.46 for rolls, then allow for cutting and waste at ends and details.

There is a reason a 160mm roll still fits 24 to a pallet. Knauf use a three-tier compression packaging process that loads more product into each pack and pallet, so a deep quilt arrives in much the same footprint as a slim one. That means less packaging per square metre, fewer vehicles for the same delivered area, and less space tied up on site while the job runs. The wool itself is made with up to 80% recycled content, including glass recovered from windows, bottles and jars, and Knauf hold a BES 6001 (v4.0) 'Very Good' rating for responsible sourcing across their mineral wool plants.

The build-up sequence is the same on a wall as on a roof: liner sheet fixed, quilt laid over it, spacer system brought up to take the quilt into the cavity, outer sheet fixed last, all in line with Knauf Insulation's guidance and the cladding system manufacturer's details. It suits new-build twin-skin walls and roofs, standing seam roofs, and re-cladding where the thermal target has moved on from the original build-up. On farms, 160mm often goes into buildings that have changed use, where a shed has become a workshop, a storage unit or a light industrial let and is now heated and occupied all day. Whichever the case, the U-value belongs to the whole assembly, so have it calculated to BS EN ISO 6946:2017 or BS EN ISO 10211:2017 using BR443:2019.

Key Benefits of Knauf FactoryClad Roll 40:

  • Thermal resistance of exactly 4.00 m²K/W at 160mm.
  • Declared thermal conductivity of 0.040 W/mK.
  • Euroclass A1 reaction to fire, non-combustible to BS EN 13501-1.
  • 8.46m² per roll, and 203.04m² per pallet across 24 rolls.
  • Suits built-up metal walls on side rails as readily as built-up metal roofs.
  • Compression packaged, so a deep roll ships in much the same pallet footprint as a slim one.
  • Made with up to 80% recycled content, including recovered window and container glass.
  • BES 6001 (v4.0) 'Very Good' rating for responsible sourcing.
  • 1200mm roll width to suit commonly used rail and bracket spacer systems.
  • Absorbs sound behind metal liner sheets, reducing internal reverberation.
  • Bound with ECOSE® Technology, with no added formaldehyde or phenol.

Good to know:

  • 160mm in the 40 grade matches 140mm in the 35 grade: both reach 4.00 m²K/W. Where cavity depth is tight the 35 grade gets there 20mm shallower. Where the depth is available, this is the option.
  • Specify the spacer system for 160mm: bracket height and fixing lengths need to suit the depth, particularly on walls where side rail centres differ from purlin centres.
  • Working out quantities: divide the net area by 8.46 for rolls or by 203.04 for pallets, then add for cutting and waste.
  • The 40 is a lambda grade meaning 0.040 W/mK, not a thickness.
  • Supplied uncut at 7.05m per roll and unfaced on both faces.
  • Non-hygroscopic, but not a moisture-resistant product: keep it dry and under cover, and discard any roll that has got wet.
  • Euroclass A1 non-combustibility may bear on the insurance position against foam composite panels. Check with the insurer for the building concerned.

On walls and roofs alike, 160mm FactoryClad Roll 40 puts a flat 4.00 m²K/W into a non-combustible quilt that suits the elevation as readily as the roof slope.

Thermal Performance

Thermal performance helps show how effectively the product reduces heat transfer.

Thermal conductivity measures how readily heat passes through the material, so lower figures generally indicate better insulating performance.

R Value shows the material’s thermal resistance at that thickness, so higher figures generally mean stronger insulation performance.

These figures relate to the insulation product itself and should be considered alongside the full wall, roof or floor build-up when checking project requirements.

Thermal Conductivity:
0.40 W/mK
Fire Performance

Euroclass reaction to fire is the European EN 13501-1 classification used to show how a construction product behaves when exposed to fire.

The main scale runs from A1 and A2 at the highest end, through B, C, D and E, down to F.

A1 is non-combustible and A2 is limited combustibility, while lower classes indicate a greater contribution to fire.

Euroclass F is the lowest rating on this scale and indicates the weakest reaction-to-fire performance.

This is different from fire resistance, which relates to how long a complete wall, floor or roof build-up can resist fire.

Reaction to Fire:
Euroclass A1
