When there is asbestos around pipe bends, the asbestos is not in the form of any visible fiber. The same goes when there is asbestos in tile adhesive/grout, svartlim, etc.
No one can say what is or isn't in that stuff.
Regardless, I would remove it as soon as possible and replace it with proper insulation. The risk is that it doesn't insulate enough, and replacing it could pay for itself in a month or two.
I would have used a mask because there could be anything in there.

"Byggmästarblandningen" can contain anything. I found asbestos in our house in the form of visible remnants of asbestos paper used for insulation between the chimney and the wooden cladding.
It can be said that it is more or less likely depending on how the mixture looks.

Heavy insulation is good against sound.eligri said:
Great!
Buying a 15 pack of FFP3 masks from Biltema. Probably a sensible investment
Insulation should be fine. It's a living area above, probably doesn't even need insulation.
I probably wouldn’t invest in my health at Biltema but everyone does as they please. 😉
