High density acoustic insulation supplier in Australia ?

Post by rudimental »

I seem to be struggling to source 45 KG / m3 or greater acoustic insulation in Australia.
A lot of the search results I'm finding are out of date.

I hear some materials in the country have a bad smell when used.. I think these are fibreglass type.

As far as I can tell I'm after a high density 45 KG / m3 or higher stone wool product for wood frame void filling.

Any help on types and current sources in Australia appreciated .

If you use fiberglass insulation instead, it would only need to be around 30 kg/m3. The higher density figure only applies to mineral wool insulation. Not sure if that helps!

The cost of this kind of insulation varies greatly from one supplier to the next in Australia, so I suggest you read this similar topic: http://www.johnlsayers.com/phpBB2/viewt ... =2&t=20453
