Insulation with a winning combination of benefits

Starlite® insulation delivers four key benefits for roofs and side cladding. 

The product is manufactured from high-quality, non-combustible glass fibre/glasswool, using an inert thermosetting binder. It is lightweight, strong, resilient, safe and highly thermally efficient. 

Insulation excellence 

Suitable for all types of buildings, Starlite® has a working temperature of up to 230°C. It provides long-term energy savings, is maintenance-free and will not readily age, providing exceptional product life. 

Being chemically inert, the product will not cause or accelerate metal corrosion.  

It is also non-hygroscopic, so it will not breed or promote fungi, mould or bacteria, nor sustain vermin. 

Starlite® helps prevent condensation and is suitable for high-humidity applications.

Get more than just thermal benefits with Starlite® insulation.

Acoustic performance 

Beyond its thermal benefits, Starlite® has excellent acoustic properties. 

It has a noise reduction coefficient (NRC) value of 0,70 at 50mm thickness. This ensures very good sound absorption from rain and hail noise on roofs. 

Fire performance 

Starlite®, which is completely non-combustible, is one of only a few insulation materials in South Africa to achieve the highest reaction to fire classification. It was the first faced-fibre roof insulation material in South Africa to attain an A1 fire rating according to SANS 428. 

Under SANS 53501-1, the product range has achieved the following classifications: 

  • Starlite® Foil Faced – A2-s1, d0. 
  • Starlite® White Faced – A2-s1, d0. 
  • Starlite® Black Faced – A2-s1, d0. 

Eco-friendly formulation 

Starlite® is free of chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs), hydrochlorofluorocarbons (HCFCs) and is produced without any blowing agents.  

It therefore has zero ozone-depleting potential (ODP) and zero global warming potential (GWP). 

Insulation that delivers thermal, acoustic, fire, aesthetics and sustainability benefits is a winning solution for most roof and side cladding applications, from small to large format steel structures.
