Sustainable Rockwool

Rockwool is committed to a continuous process of environmental improvement in two distinct ways that reflect the growing environmental concerns of society:

• Minimising our company’s use of resources and emissions of pollutants to air, water and soil
• Reducing the need for heating fuels and the pollution created by their combustion, through development and promotion of effective thermal insulation solutions

We are all becoming increasingly mindful of how our actions are affecting the environment.  Sustainability is about fulfilling our needs today without compromising the prospects of future generations. 

There are many good things we should do, but don’t because they would compromise our quality of life – like giving up private cars.  However insulation is a financially beneficial way to abate CO2 that actually improves our quality of life.
