Committed to energy efficient, low emission production
- Rockwool has some of the most technologically advanced production facilities in the world
- Rockwool actively seeks to exceed and improve on strict Environment Agency performance requirements
- Rockwool has been accredited with the ISO 14001 standard for environmental management
As part of the recent significant investment in the production facility in Bridgend, improved energy efficiency and emission reductions were designed into the state-of-the-art processes so that doubling our capacity has increased our efficiency substantially.
The Rockwool Group achieves continuous improvements, reducing the environmental impacts of our production activities, by investing in cutting edge technologies for equipment design and processes, such as high efficiency filter systems and after burner plants.
The energy saved while an insulation product is in use hugely outweighs the energy consumed during its manufacture and all other phases of the product’s life cycle.
Over a lifetime of use in a typical UK building, Rockwool products can provide savings in greenhouse gases as a result of reduced heating that are more than a hundred times bigger than the emissions associated with producing the Rockwool products used.
