Because of it’s density, the 1.6 PCF Knauf rigid fiberglass with ECOSE® Technology is ideal for making thicker panels. It can also be used to fill corners to make bass traps. It’s easier to cut than 3.0 PCF and as with all ECOSE® products, it’s environmentally friendly.
Perfect for Do-It-Yourself bass traps and acoustic panels, Knauf Insulation Acoustical Board is a 1.6 PCF thermal and acoustical insulation product made from inorganic glass mineral wool preformed into boards with ECOSE® Technology. Precision cut tolerances.
