What are the benefits of mineral wool?

Mineral wool is a breathable insulation material that will keep your home warm in the winter and cool in the summer. With excellent thermal performance, you’ll benefit from reduced energy costs as you are less reliant on artificial heating.

Rockwool and Knauf's slabs are made from rock mineral wool which makes them fire-resistant and will slow down the spread of flames.

Mineral wool is designed to reduce and block decibels from travelling through walls, which is useful if the wall is being shared with a neighbour or you live near a noisy road.
