The invention relates to an aqueous binder composition for mineral fibers comprising at least one hydrocolloid.

The present application relates to a method for manufacturing an improved package of compressed mineral wool insulation blowing wool fibers.

This invention is an envelope-structure interface, enabling the use of exterior insulation and pressure-equalized cladding with a post-frame structure. The present invention includes the following interface details: a continuous roof-to-wall water, vapor, and air impermeable weather barrier that is fully adhered to sheathing exterior of framing, girts, and purlins; continuous roof-to-wall insulation exterior of weather barrier that is mechanically fastened back to the post-frame structure; and removal of the requirement for an interior finish material in a conditioned post-frame building. The invention brings superior envelope performance to the structural and material efficiency, rapid rate of construction, and affordability of post-frame techniques.

A building component utilizing a pourable polyurethane or structural foam that can be used for floors, walls, and roof assemblies with a frame with an interior, back or a front, multiple partition beams forming cells in said frame, pourable polyurethane or structural foam exterior backing attached to said frame back. The structural foam is poured into said cells to a desired level, and after said structural foam is poured into said cells, said interior backing is attached to said frame front. Cabling is used to improve movability of the invention, and improve on wind loading and seismic requirements of the present invention. Safety is also improved during the manufacturing process, loading, unloading, and in final assembly through the use of cabling.

A fire-protecting insulation product has air-laid mineral wool fibres and a binder. The binder is the result of curing a binder composition comprising at least one hydrocolloid. The product further comprises a particulate endothermic material.

A method of bonding together surfaces of two or more elements. The method includes the steps of providing two or more elements, applying an adhesive to one or more of the surfaces to be bonded together before, during or after contacting the surfaces to be bonded together with each other, and curing the adhesive, wherein the adhesive comprises at least one hydrocolloid.

The present application relates to a method for manufacturing an improved package of compressed mineral wool insulation blowing wool fibers.

The present invention relates to a method of providing thermal and/or acoustic insulation to a structure, comprising the steps of: providing a substrate which comprises fibres; applying the substrate to the structure; blending the substrate with a binder composition before, during or after application of the substrate to the structure; allowing curing of the binder composition after the substrate and the binder composition have been applied to the structure; wherein the binder composition comprises at least one hydrocolloid. The present invention also relates to an insulated structure obtainable by said method.

The present application relates to methods for the manufacturing of improved packaging for compressed mineral wool insulation blowing wool fibers, as well as methods for the introduction and distribution of the same.
