Mineral Wool Insulation
ROCKWOOL is the world’s leading manufacturer of stone wool insulation, offering a full range of high-performing and sustainable insulation products for the construction industry. The range of applications include interior and exterior wall insulation, roof, ceiling and floor insulation, acoustic applications and passive fireproofing.
Stone wool, or mineral wool, is a fiber insulation spun from molten limestone, basalt, or ceramics. ROCKWOOL insulation is a rock-based stone fiber insulation comprised of basalt rock that is 100% recyclable. Various thicknesses and densities are available for diverse applications.
Stone wool insulation has a unique structure, which keeps its shape and toughness despite changes in temperature or humidity. Consequently the performance does not change, decade after decade.
Due to its dense fiber structure, ROCKWOOL stone wool is also easy to install. Most importantly, it adapts to all types of irregularities. It is also a great choice for a frost-protected shallow foundation because of its non-organic composition— it does not provide a food source for mold or mildew to grow, nor is it attractive to insects or rodents.
ROCKWOOL is moisture resistant yet vapor permeable. Because it doesn’t wick water, any water that contacts the outer surface will drain. Furthermore, it wont be absorbed into the body of the insulation. Breathability and moisture resistance are key in a climate like ours where rain and frost can create issues.
ROCKWOOL insulation also offers superior fire resistance. With excellent thermal and acoustic properties, mold resistance, and extreme fire resilience, ROCKWOOL is a super-strengthified choice.
