Frequently Asked Questions
What is Aerolite insulation used for?
Aerolite is used to improve thermal comfort and energy efficiency in homes and buildings. It’s installed primarily in ceilings to keep interiors cool in summer and warm in winter, while also providing excellent acoustic insulation. Made from resilient glasswool and bonded with a safe, inert resin, it reduces temperature fluctuations, dampens noise, and lowers electricity usage — making it ideal for residential, commercial, and even industrial spaces across South Africa.
How long does Aerolite last?
Aerolite insulation is designed to last for 40 to 50 years when installed correctly and left undisturbed. It requires no maintenance over its lifespan and continues to deliver consistent thermal and acoustic performance for decades.
Is Aerolite insulation safe?
Yes, it’s completely safe when handled and installed correctly. It’s made from non-combustible glasswool bonded with a thermosetting resin, and is formaldehyde-free, non-toxic, and SABS-approved. Modern Aerolite has a soft-touch finish and is far less itchy than older glasswool products, making it safe for use in homes, schools, hospitals, and offices.
Can I install Aerolite myself?
Yes, it’s suitable for DIY installation, especially in accessible roof spaces. It’s lightweight, easy to cut, and designed to fit between standard roof trusses. However, for larger or more complex installations, professional installation is recommended to ensure full coverage, compliance with SANS 10400-XA, and maximum energy savings.
What thickness Aerolite should I use?
-
135mm – Best for colder areas (e.g. Johannesburg, Pretoria, Cape Town) and SANS compliance.
-
100mm – Ideal for temperate regions like Durban.
-
50mm – Used as a top-up layer, but not suitable as primary ceiling insulation
Is Aerolite environmentally friendly?
Yes. Aerolite is manufactured using over 80% recycled glass and is fully recyclable at the end of its lifespan. Its long-term energy-saving properties also help reduce carbon emissions in the home.
Does Aerolite meet building regulations in South Africa?
Absolutely. Aerolite is SABS-approved, SANS-compliant, and meets all relevant fire, thermal, and acoustic standards required for ceiling insulation in South Africa.
Is Aerolite flammable?
No, Aerolite is not flammable. It carries a Class A1 fire rating, which means it is completely non-combustible and will not ignite, melt, or contribute to the spread of fire. This makes it one of the safest insulation options for homes and buildings in South Africa. Its fire-resistance is especially valuable in ceiling installations where safety is a top priority.
What is the density of Aerolite?
The 135mm has a density of 11.5kg/mÂł, offering an ideal balance between lightweight handling and high-performance insulation. This density ensures effective thermal resistance and sound absorption, helping to maintain a quieter, more energy-efficient indoor environment.
