Throughout its lifespan ROCKWOOL stone wool building insulation typically saves approximately 85 times more carbon than is emitted during its production. This is equivalent to 155 million tonnes of carbon savings over the lifetime.
Very high levels of insulation are a key element of passive construction, which keeps heat losses so low that a house can be kept warm either without heating or just by preheating the fresh air entering rooms.
When environmental goals are more important than ever, improving energy efficiency in buildings presents an immediate opportunity to make our towns and cities healthier, safer and more sustainable.
When renovating old homes or planning a new development, the right combination of design and insulation can make a big difference to a building’s performance.
