Product catalog summary
Introduction
RECYCLETHERM Km0 is an eco-friendly thermal and acoustic insulating material made from recycled textile fibers. It is produced by Manifattura Maiano using fibers from processing scraps and recycled textile products, contributing to environmental sustainability by reducing waste and energy consumption.

Manufacturing Process
The production process is highly sustainable, involving sterilization at 180°C without the use of water, chemicals, or binders. The product is fully recyclable at the end of its lifecycle.

Product Specifications
RECYCLETHERM Km0 is available in various densities and thicknesses, suitable for walls and roofs. It offers excellent thermal resistance and acoustic insulation, maintaining performance over time. The product is customizable in size and packaging.

Applications
This material is ideal for thermal and acoustic insulation in indoor and outdoor walls, floors, and roofing, suitable for both new constructions and renovations.

Environmental Impact
RECYCLETHERM Km0 is produced with a short supply chain, sourcing raw materials within 15 km of the manufacturing facility, and increasing recycled content to 100%. It has won the Eco-Friendly Innovation Award in 2012.

Chemical Composition
The material consists of 25% wool, 10% cotton, 20% polyester, 15% polypropylene, and 30% other textile fibers.

Technical Performance
  • Thermal conductivity: 0.0358 - 0.0381 W/mK
  • Acoustic-insulating power: R’w = 52 dB
  • Soundproofing coefficient: αn [500Hz] = 0.21
  • Deformation under load: 27%
  • Water vapor diffusion: μ = 2.2
  • Hygroscopic absorption: u = 0.02

Recycletherm - Technical Data-1

THERMAL ANDACDUSTIC TEXTILE FIBERS (SHORT SUPPLY CHAIN) The impact of this material on the environment is extremely low. Manifattura Maiano transforms the fibers obtained from processing scraps from nearby industries in the textile district of Prato and from recycled textile products that have reached the end of their life cycle into thermal and acoustic insulating The manufacturing process, too, is highly eco-friendly, because the raw materials, after having been sterilized at 180°, are processed without the use of water, chemical products or binders. The product is 100% recyclable at the end To choose RECYCLETHERM KmO means using a material that has superb thermal and acoustic insulating qualities, yet sharing principles of sustainability. RECYCLETHERM KmO makes a solid contribution towards protecting the environment, because it avoids waste dumping and saves on energy. Its thermal and acoustic insulating performance does not change over time, ensuring the thermal and hygrometric wellness of the living space. THERMAL AND ACOUSTIC INSULATION IN THE CAVITIES OF INDOOR AND OUTDOOR WALLS, FLOORS AND ROOFING. IDEAL RENOVATION WORKS. IT IS SUPPLIED IN DIFFERENT THICKNESSES AND MEASURES, DEPENDING ON THE REQUIREMENTS OFTHE ECO FRIENDLY INNOVATION AWARD RECYCLETHERM KmO is an awarded hi-tech product, born on the basis of a comparative LCA that has made it possible to innovate the manufacturing process behind RecycleTherm. By getting a number of local key players around city of Prato involved (the textile industries and local waste management company), a supply chain was started that has allowed Manifattura Maiano to increase recycled material content from 85% to 100% and to procure the raw material within a radius of no more than 15 km from its manufacturing facilities. Thus is born RecycleTherm KmO, an insulating material with a short supply chain and with an incredibly low impact on the environment. Notes: The measures and/or packages of all the articles listed can be customized on request (i.e. floor-high panels). Tolerance on volume (weight) and thickness: +/-10%; dimensional tolerance: +/- 0.5 cm.
