There aren't any that I know of without other shortcomings. But you can easily protect yourself while working with/around fiberglass by wearing a resprator, eye protection, gloves, long sleeves and pants. That is what we have always one. If you are using fiberglass in spaces you will not finish with sheetrock, but will regularly enter, use paper or foil-backed, whatever is apprpriate to your project. Once the fiberglass is encased, there is no risk to lungs.
