☑️ Rock wool insulation
rock wool Rock wool is one of the mineral insulations that is obtained by melting basalt in a furnace and is used as sound and thermal insulation in buildings and industrial centers. The type and method of using this insulation depends on the place of insulation. The different features of this sound and thermal insulation that make it unique can be named as follows: • Made from natural and sustainable materials • Ability to recycle more than 75% of it • By reducing the air transfer, it keeps the heat inside the room. • Non-combustible and fire resistant up to about 1400 degrees • Strong waterproof • Less failure over time
Benefits of stone wool ▪️ Anti-fire properties: The temperature tolerance of stone wool insulation is up to 750 degrees. This insulation is resistant to fire and does not ignite. Therefore, this insulation can be used in metal structures so that it does not cause any problems for the structure in case of fire Low heat transfer coefficient: Rock wool insulation has a lower heat transfer coefficient than other thermal insulations. Naturalness: Rock wool is made of volcanic stones (basalt) and is completely natural. Therefore, it does not have any chemical harm and does not release toxic gases in case of fire. Cost-effectiveness: Rock wool is cheaper than other insulations and costs less. ▪️ Durability and long life: The life of stone wool is equal to the life of a building.
Different types of rock wool
🔸 Bulk rock wool It is an acoustic and thermal insulation that is produced in the form of raw rock wool, and it is used to fill spaces without a regular geometric shape. 🔸 stone wool quilting Quilted stone wool is very flexible and is distributed in rolls in the market. Quilted stone wool is produced in different types without coating and with aluminum coating and kraft paper. It is used for insulating the roof of buildings, sheds, Walls, false ceilings, ventilation ducts and surfaces with low curvature are used. 🔸 stone wool blanket Blanket stone wool is mostly used to insulate machines, industrial equipment and high diameter pipes. Rock wool blanket insulation is considered a vital heat and sound insulation for industries and generally in this type of wool insulation No bonding agents have been used in the stone. 🔸 stone wool From rock wool, which is one of the most widely used types of rock wool insulation and has many applications and is used in almost all industries. In the construction industry, it is widely used in sound and thermal insulation of walls, floors, and ceilings, and furnace industries, refineries, and petrochemicals are among the major consumers of this product. 🔸 rock wool Rockwool insulation is used in construction and industrial pipe installations. Rockwool is produced in the standard diameter of pipes available in the market and in different thicknesses.
