Rockwool

Rockwool is a mineral-based insulation material made from natural rock such as basalt or diabase created by melting these rocks at high temperatures and then spinning the molten material into fibers which are compressed into various forms like boards, blankets, or loose-fill insulation. ibeam supplies this versatile insulation material combining performance, safety, and sustainability making it an excellent choice for diverse insulation needs. Primary applications include building insulation for walls, roofs, floors, and ceilings, industrial applications for pipelines, tanks, boilers, furnaces and ovens, HVAC systems for duct insulation and acoustic barriers, fire protection for fireproofing walls and doors, marine and offshore applications for ships and platforms, soundproofing for recording studios and home theaters, agriculture for greenhouses and hydroponics, and renewable energy for solar panels and wind turbines where thermal, acoustic, and fire-resistant properties are critical requirements.
