Rockwool has some significant advantages over other insulation materials which are discussed briefly below.

• Rockwool stone wool fibres can withstand more than 1000°C without melting – this means it can slow the spread of fire in a property where it to catch fire.

• Rockwool has fantastic thermal insulating properties. 120mm of our dual density slabs when attached to the exterior of a property will take the u-value down to 0.3 which means the building will then conform to building regulations. For the occupants, it means improved thermal comfort since the property will stay at more even temperatures and also lower energy bills.


• Rockwool stone wool has great acoustic insulating properties, so it can really can help with sound reduction if installed on a busy road for example.
