Central Insulation Systems
Noisy equipment rooms, freezing warehouses, walls that burn too fast. Poor insulation in commercial buildings costs you comfort, energy bills, and fire safety every day. Thermafiber rigid mineral wool boards stop heat loss, block sound, and resist fire in walls, roofs, and mechanical systems.
We stock Thermafiber boards in multiple thicknesses and install them with 35 years of commercial insulation experience. No hunting for specialty materials, no rookie installers learning on your job. You get code-compliant fire protection and energy savings that last decades.
Thermafiber mineral wool boards work in commercial buildings, industrial facilities, and institutional projects where fire safety matters. Contractors use them in wall assemblies, roof systems, and around mechanical equipment that generates heat.
These rigid boards cut cleanly and fit tight against steel studs, concrete block, and metal decking. The mineral wool material won't burn or melt like foam insulation. It also dampens sound transmission between rooms and floors.
Each board measures standard commercial dimensions and ships ready to install. The yellow-green color makes it easy to spot gaps during inspection. Installation requires proper safety equipment due to mineral fiber content.
We handle delivery to your job site and can coordinate installation with your construction schedule. Our crews work with general contractors, mechanical contractors, and facility managers across government, healthcare, and industrial projects.

- Rigid yellow-green mineral wool boards for commercial applications

I worked with Kevin Con, their field specialist. Kevin talked to me over the phone for quite awhile to make sure that I had a good estimate and knowledge of the procedure. The team came out early and they were efficient in the processes. I would highly recommend them especially because they worked so closely with our roofing team to get the job done in one day.

I am just so happy. They came out on a Tuesday (the owner Steve and his son) and took a look and had a crew of 2 out for me the next day! They got there at 8:30 am and all was completed by 2:00. The follow up was excellent. I could just go on and on. I am very impressed and want to insulate everything NOW because they were so excellent!
