The pitched roof or attic area of a building can be insulated in many ways. Based on local building traditions, requirements and regulations in combination with the usage of the loft.

Effective pitched roof insulation offers additional thermal comfort, sound protection and exceptional fire resistance, making it ideal for residential and commercial properties.

Our products are made from premium-quality stone wool, with solutions available for pitched roof insulation below, between and over rafters, as well as insulation that is placed in the loft level. We offer high-performance systems and solutions for homes and businesses.

Why do we need pitched roof insulation?

In moderate and cold climates a substantial amount of all heat is lost through the roof of an uninsulated home

To avoid costs and improve living conditions, insulating a pitched roof is among the most popular construction methods of today. Effective insulation can help reduce energy costs and enhance comfort and efficiency.

With insulation installed below, above and between the rafters of a pitched roof, more useable and habitable space can also be created in the home or building. If the loft space is only used for storage and remains uninhabitable, insulating the attic floor is a very good alternative.

As noise pollution continues to become a major problem in towns and cities1, properly insulated pitched roofs can also help to create a peaceful living environment.

Our products help to:

  • Conserve energy – and reduce bills
  • Reduce noise pollution
  • Prevent heat loss
  • Provide fire protection

With ROCKWOOL pitched roof insulation, your building is protected for its lifetime.

Pitched roof insulation is an affordable and energy efficient solution for your project or refurbishment. Effective roof insulation can prevent heat from entering or escaping your roof space, helping to reduce energy bills substantially.

When working out how many m² you will require, whether you use rolls, batts or granulate as your insulation material, we can match the thickness of the insulation to almost any specification – depending on your needs.

By installing insulation in the pitched roof area with ROCKWOOL insulation, you not only create a thermal barrier, but also increase the acoustic and fire performance of the construction. You also enable the use of the attic area as a living space – such as a game-room for the kids, an extra bedroom, or even a bathroom for your convenience.
