Rock mineral wool is made mainly from volcanic rock, typically basalt and/or dolomite. An increasing proportion is now recycled material from slag, a waste product from blast furnaces and form the rock wool insulation. The materials are melted and then spun fibersine fibres. A resin is used to bind the fibres together to form a mat of insulation.

Benefits:

• Short fibre- compressive strength.
• Non-combustible suitable for temperatures up to 850º C
• Denser than glass mineral wool.
• Available in the form of slabs, rolls mattresses and pipe sections.
• High compressive strength.

Applications:

• Thermal insulation of flat roofs and external wall insulation.
• Fire protection, including smoke and fire barriers.
• High temperature applications.
• Sound insulation for floors and walls.
• Thermal and acoustic insulation of pipe work in heating and ventilation, air-conditioning and industrial applications.
