ABSTRACT:
An insulation assembly for insulating buildings is disclosed. The insulation assembly includes a low density, binderless, mineral fiber mat, such as a binderless fibrous glass batt which is covered by a layer to form a package. The batt is joined to the package by an adhesive and air passageway is defined by the package for directing atmospheric air to the batt. The insulation assembly is lightweight and has a compression ratio in excess of 6:1.
