Sustainability and energy efficiency
At ROCKWOOL, we create products that improve energy efficiency.
All our insulation is made from a natural volcanic rock that is continually replenished by our planet and when manufacturing our products, we’re guided by ambitious goals too.
Taking a circular economy approach, we use other industries’ waste as a substitute for virgin raw material. Our stone wool can also be recycled time and time again, without any degradation of quality.
Our building insulation saves approximately 100 times more carbon in its lifespan than is emitted during its production and we’re proud that ROCKWOOL insulation can become ‘net carbon positive’ in less than 200 days.
Further information can be found in the Environmental Product Declarations (EPDs) available for all of the stone wool insulation products manufactured in the UK. To request an EPD for basement insulation, please contact technical.solutions@rockwool.com.
