JM Formaldehyde-free™ Cavity-SHIELD™ fiberglass batts are made of long, resilient glass fibers bonded with a thermosetting resin. A wide range of thicknesses are available to provide NFPA 13 compliant passive fire protection in lieu of sprinklers for horizontal floor-ceiling cavities. Cavity-SHIELD fiberglass batts are available unfaced.

Cavity-SHIELD fiberglass batts are noncombustible insulation for use in multi-family construction in the concealed spaces between floors. It eliminates the need for sprinklers in the concealed space, per NFPA 13.

Cavity-SHIELD fiberglass batts meet ASTM E136 for noncombustibility to provide a NFPA 13 compliant insulation for use in concealed spaces, between floors, within multifamily housing. It eliminates the need for sprinklers in this area, while meeting code to provide passive fire protection.
