Sustainability and energy efficiency
At ROCKWOOL, we’re passionate about creating products that improve energy efficiency.
We take stone, the most abundant natural resource on Earth, and upcycled secondary materials that would otherwise end up as waste and turn them into long lasting stone wool insulation products. These products are themselves recyclable and can be recycled again and again without any deterioration in quality.
To make our products, we also use sustainable practices, taking other industries’ waste instead of virgin raw materials.
By doing this, ROCKWOOL building insulation saves around 100 times more carbon in its lifespan than is produced during its manufacture and our insulation can be net carbon positive in less than 200 days.
Environmental Product Declarations (EPDs) are available for all of the stone wool insulation products manufactured in the UK. To request an EPD for pitched roof insulation, please contact technical.solutions@rockwool.com
