Rockwool is a type of insulation material that is made from melted rocks, primarily basalt and dolomite, that are spun into fibers and then bound together to form a mat or batting. This process creates a product that is known for its high performance and versatility, making it a popular choice for a wide range of applications.

Applications of rockwool include:

  • Building insulation: used in walls, roofs, and floors to improve energy efficiency and reduce heating and cooling costs
  • Industrial insulation: used in pipelines, boilers, and other industrial equipment to improve energy efficiency and reduce heat loss
  • HVAC insulation: used in heating, ventilation, and air conditioning systems to improve energy efficiency and reduce heat loss
  • Fireproofing: used in building construction and industrial equipment to provide fire protection
  • Acoustic panels: used in buildings, theaters, and other facilities to improve sound quality and reduce noise levels

Advantages of rockwool include:

  • Thermal insulation: rockwool is an effective insulator, helping to reduce heating and cooling costs
  • Fire resistance: rockwool is naturally fire resistant, making it a popular choice for building insulation and fireproofing applications
  • Soundproofing: rockwool is effective at reducing noise levels, making it a popular choice for acoustic panels and building insulation
  • Sustainable: rockwool is made from natural materials and is fully recyclable, making it a sustainable insulation option

In conclusion, rockwool is a versatile and effective insulation material that offers numerous benefits in building, industrial, and HVAC applications. Its fire resistance, soundproofing, and thermal insulation properties make it a popular choice for many different types of projects.

Rockwool Applications

Thermal Insulation

Thermal Insulation

Thermal insulation is the process of insulating material from transferring heat between the materials that are in thermal contact. Thermal Insulation is measured by its thermal conductivity. Low Thermal-conductivity materials are used for thermal insulation.

Oil and Gas

Oil and Gas

Thermal Insulations for Pipework, Pumps, Manifolds, Exhausts, and Burners: The provision of thermal insulation at industrial facilities is often initiated by a desire to increase safety and process reliability, and at the same time to reduce energy consumption and CO2 emissions.

Home Appliances

Home Appliances

High temperature insulation touches people’s everyday lives. While we serve specialist sectors and industries, Rockal provides insulation solutions for products that are part of the fabric of how we live today.

Automotive

Automotive

The noise and vibrations generated by a vehicle can be unpleasant for the driver, as well as for those living and working along busy roads. Overheating can also have significant consequences for your vehicle, from evaporating essentials fluids to damaging components.

HVAC Insulation

HVAC Insulation

HVAC systems are used in both commercial and residential buildings, from offices to factories, hotels to homes. They’re a big factor when it comes to the overall comfort of your home or building. Adding HVAC insulation can help improve that comfort and even lead to lower utility costs.

Acoustic Insulation

Acoustic Insulation

Acoustic Insulation is a type of soundproofing that attempts to prevent sound from entering or exiting an enclosed space by creating some a barrier between the interior and the exterior area.

Power Plant

Power Plant

Electricity is a vital part of our everyday lives and powers everything we touch or do on many levels. Most of our electricity is generated from traditional fuels, such as coal, natural gas, hydro and nuclear. Renewable energy sources such as solar and wind have grown over the last few decades. What do all of these have in common? Industrial insulation.

Marine Insulation

Marine Insulation

Marine insulation is insulation that has been rated for use in marine applications, commonly found in the walls and ceilings of ships and ocean- going vessels. Marine insulation must be able to withstand humidity and water, and provide thermal, fire, and acoustic insulation.

Rockwool Products

Rockwool Blankets (Rolls)

Rockwool Blankets (Rolls)

Rockwool blanket insulation is a type of flexible insulation made from spun mineral wool, which is derived from a mixture of volcanic rock and slag. Rockwool Rolls are high performance solution for thermal & acoustic insulation for a range of commercial and industrial Buildings.

Rockwool Boards (Slabs)

Rockwool Boards (Slabs)

ROCKAL Rockwool Boards are composed of mineral rock fibers, processed from volcanic basaltic rocks, Fibers are bonded together with a thermosetting binder which gives the flexibility & resilience to the product.

Rockwool Pipe Sections

Rockwool Pipe Sections

Rockwool pipe section is a type of insulation material made from rock minerals (such as basalt and slag) that have been melted at high temperatures and then spun into fibers. Rockwool pipe section is commonly used to insulate pipes and ductwork in building and HVAC systems.
