Made from Basalt rock and Recycled Slag, Glass Rock is a mineral fiber insulation. Basalt, a volcanic rock, and slag from steel and copper industries are its core components.
Usage
Glass Rock insulation is primarily used in various construction and industrial applications:
- Thermal Insulation:
- Partition Walls: Effective in maintaining desired temperatures by reducing heat transfer through walls
- Cavity Walls: Helps in improving energy efficiency by insulating the spaces between external and internal walls
- Interior Walls: Provides comfort by regulating indoor temperatures and reducing heating and cooling costs
- Fire Protection:
- Fire Containment: In the event of a fire, Glass Rock insulation does not produce smoke or burning droplets, which helps in containing fire spread and protecting structural integrity
- Commercial and Residential Buildings: Enhances fire safety by providing a fire-resistant barrier, reducing the risk of fire-related damage
- Acoustic Properties:
- Noise Reduction: The material's excellent acoustic properties minimize external noise and improve soundproofing within buildings, making it ideal for spaces requiring quiet environments
