About Mineral Rock Wool
Mineral Rockwool is a versatile and highly effective solution for a wide range of insulation needs. It is made from a blend of diabase rock to produce fibrous insulation materials. This type of insulation is ideal for both industrial, commercial, residential, and acoustic use.
When it comes to insulating industrial buildings exposed to high temperatures, Mineral Rockwool is the ideal solution. Its unique composition allows it to maintain its integrity and insulating properties even in the most demanding environments. This makes it perfect for applications such as furnaces, kilns, pipes, or other industrial equipment that generate high levels of heat.
In addition to its high-temperature capabilities, Mineral Rockwool offers excellent fire resistance, making it a safe and reliable choice for industrial setup.
It is also known for its acoustic insulation, making it perfect for soundproofing walls, ceilings, and floors.
Mineral Rockwool is a reliable and cost-effective solution for all your insulation needs. With its durability, fire resistance, and eco-friendly composition, Mineral Rockwool offers long-lasting performance and peace of mind.
Mineral Rockwool is resistant to rot, has no odour, does not attract or house pests, and does not promote the growth of fungi, mould, or bacteria. Has naturally low amounts of chlorides that can be dissolved in water, below 5ppm, so it will not trigger or encourage corrosion.

Mineral Rockwool Loose Wool
(Granulated wool – Granulated loose mineral rock wool)
(Loose wool – Loose mineral rock wool)
Mineral rockwool loose wool is an insulation material consisting of fine fibers made from natural or synthetic minerals like basalt or slag. Unlike rigid boards or pre-formed sections, loose wool is fluffy and can be blown or poured into cavities to provide thermal and acoustic insulation. It conforms to irregular shapes, making it ideal for filling gaps in walls, attics, and ceilings. Mineral rockwool loose wool offers excellent fire resistance and sound absorption properties. It is commonly used in both residential and commercial construction for its versatility, effectiveness, and eco-friendly nature.
Temperature range:
Loose Mineral Rock Wool, range from – 200°C to 750°C.
Tested to SABS 0177 Part 1 to ensure non-combustibility.
Used for:
Soundproofing in vehicles and various types of silencers for noise reduction. For insulating ovens and other equipment to retain heat. Cryogenic use for frozen cargo compartments, oxygen plant, refrigeration units. Relief of general expansion in insulation by placing it behind brickwork within furnaces. Ideal for filling cavities with irregular dimensions, particularly in situations where pre-formed insulation is not suitable.
- Granulated wool is utilized as a fibrous filler to provide both strength and volume.
- Loose wool insulation is used to fill cavities at a specific density.
