what is rockwool insulation

Rockwool insulation is a type of thermal insulation made from heated, naturally-occurring minerals such as basalt rock and recycled slag. It is created by spinning molten rock and minerals with steel slag to create a mass of fine intertwined fibers that are bound together with starch. Rockwool insulation is highly durable, non-combustible, sound absorbent, moisture resistant, and breathable. It is commonly used to prevent the spread of fire in buildings and can play a significant role in reducing energy consumption in homes and businesses. Rockwool insulation is available in rolls and sheets and can be either flexible or rigid, delivering a full scale of solutions to match your needs.
