Brief Introduction:
Rock wool and slag wool insulation
products play a significant
energy-saving role by reducing energy
use in homes, office buildings,
businesses and manufacturing plants.
Insulating to proper economically
efficient levels helps our homes and
businesses use substantially less
energy. The physical and chemical
properties of mineral wool, also known
as rock and slag wool are major factors
in their utility. Because the fibers are
non-combustible and have melting
temperatures in excess of 1.000 C-1.110
C, they are used to prevent the spread
of fire. As a primary constituent of
ceiling tile and sprayed fire proofing,
rock and slag wool products supply fire
protection, as well as sound control
attenuation. In addition, the use of the
rock and slag wool as a horticultural
growing medium has increased in recent
years.
