Features and Bene ts

Excellent Thermal Control

With the range of R-values and

thicknesses available, EcoTouch

Insulation can meet most thermal

speci cations with ease. The R30C

and R38C provide excellent

thermal performance in the limited

space of cathedral ceilings.

Effective Acoustical Control

EcoTouch

Insulation enhances

interior noise control by

improving the Sound Transmission

Class (STC) of walls and  oor/

ceiling assemblies.

Long Term Performance

EcoTouch

Insulation is

dimensionally stable and will not

slump within the wall cavity. Due

to its inorganic  bers, EcoTouch

Insulation will not rot or mildew

and is noncorrosive to steel,

copper, and aluminum.

Easy Installation

EcoTouch

Insulation is easy to

handle and install. Sized for

installation in either wood or

metal stud construction,

EcoTouch

Insulation can either

be friction- t or stapled into

place. Trimming and fabrication

can be done with an ordinary

utility knife and is easily installed

into odd-shaped cavities and small

spaces. With less dust than other

 berglass insulation products,

EcoTouch

Insulation has excellent

stiffness and recovery

characteristics.

EcoTouch

Insulation complies with ICC (International Building Code), model code requirements for building

construction types listed above.

Kraft and standard foil facing will burn. Do not leave exposed. Facing must be installed in substantial contact with

an approved ceiling,  oor or wall material. Keep open  ame and other heat sources away from facing. Do not place

insulation within 3" of light  xtures or similar electrical devices unless device is labeled for contact with insulation.

Use only unfaced insulation between wood framing and masonry chimneys. Do not use insulation in spaces around

metal chimneys,  replaces, or  ues. EcoTouch

Unfaced insulation is considered non-combustible by model building

codes. Flame Spread 25 products are  ame spread rated and can be left exposed where codes allow. See package for

warnings,  re hazard and installation instructions, or call 1-800-GET-PINK.

Due to the potential for skin irritation, EcoTouch

Unfaced Insulation should not be used for exposed applications

where it will be subject to human contact.
