ROCKWOOL fire protection solutions can slow the spread of flames, contain fires locally and stop them from spreading further.
Robust stone wool insulation is therefore a key component in fire-resilient buildings, as its fibres are non-combustible and can resist temperatures above 1,000°C.1

Urbanisation and climate change have posed new challenges to the modern way of living. Buildings are built higher, in closer proximity to each other and sometimes construction moves at a swift pace.
Hazards such as fire risk can be increased as a consequence. This could be caused by:
When building and renovating, protecting people’s lives in the event of a fire is a vital consideration.
Installing fire resilient products in new build and renovation products can provide long-term cost savings. With added protection against fire damage to buildings, this can help reduce future repair expenses.
Key benefits of ROCKWOOL insulation include:
ROCKWOOL fire protection solutions:

In many countries, around 40 percent of energy is used to power commercial and residential buildings.9
The fire protection qualities of ROCKWOOL products not only improve the safety of buildings, but also reduce energy consumption through strong thermal bridging and heat loss performance.
That’s because they act as an effective energy storage system, regulating temperatures and reducing the need for heating and cooling. At the same time, this provides us with more comfortable living spaces that occupants can thrive in.10
Our focus on energy efficient products has economic benefits too.
Renovating buildings with energy-efficient insulation products can save up to 70 percent on heating costs – as well as having a huge impact on people’s health and wellbeing.11 12
By committing to our environmental responsibilities, our fire protection products also grow the circular economy. They are recyclable and can be re-used for different projects when needed.
ROCKWOOL is non-combustible and has a melting point of over 1000℃. In an event of a fire, ROCKWOOL insulation can reduce spread of flames and provide precious time to save your family and your home.
