Mineral wool insulation is a building material used in construction to thermally insulate the building envelope as an alternative to fiberglass insulation. Builders realize the benefits of mineral wool insulation over fiberglass in several areas, including: Higher R-Value Better Acoustic Blocking Superior Fire-Resistance

Mineral wool insulation is used in many applications including walls, floors, ceilings, roofs, attics, pipes and ducts. It’s an effective thermal insulation solution, has proven noise-reduction and sound-absorption properties, is durable and is typically non-combustible.

It’s simple: mineral wool insulation makes buildings better places to live and work. It enables a comfortable and healthy environment, allowing everyone – including the young, old and vulnerable – to flourish. Whatever the climate, mineral wool insulation makes it easier to keep a home warmer or cooler for longer.

Other benefits of mineral wool insulation include it’s less expensive than other materials, it doesn’t absorb moisture, so it is immune to mould, it is fully recyclable, and it has a minimal ecological footprint. It also has a wide range of applications.
