Jet Stream

Description

Knauf Jet Stream Blowing Insulation is an unbonded, virgin fibrous glass blowing insulation designed with optimal thermal properties, and excellent coverage and blowing characteristics. Jet Stream’s unique platinum color identities it as the high performing product that you require.

Application

Knauf Jet Stream Blowing Insulation is typically installed in open attics of both new and existing structures.
