MAIN ADVANTAGES OF THE MINERAL WOOL INSULATION

External insulation can save up to 50% of your costs of heating. Economic and ecological analyses reveal that there is a growing tendency for energy prices to increase. Heat energy is the largest item of the consumption of energies in most homes and companies. It is heat, though, that wasted the most. It is perhaps because it cannot be seen.
In addition to saving your money, external insulation also protects the environment. It reduces emissions of harmful gases and the use of non-renewable sources. Heat leakage through facades is the major part of the total heat losses of a building, accounting for up to 30% of the total losses in small houses and even more in blocks of flats and prefabricated buildings.

Benefits of Mineral wool:
1. Incombustibility - Made of mineral rock with the melting point of above 1,000 °C, mineral wool protects buildings against fire.
2. Heat insulating properties - Mineral wool has a very low thermal conductivity coefficient, which makes it an excellent heat insulating material. 3. Shape retention - Mineral wool stabs retain its shape and volume for over 50 years.
4. Water repelling properties - Materials used in facades are hydrophobized in the entire cross section to repel water. Water stays on the surface of the slabs or flows down. Water absorbing capacity of the slabs is extremely low.
5. Steam permeability - The porous structure of mineral wool ensures high water steam permeability.
6. Acoustical properties - The porous structure of our materials absorbs most of the sound energy striking the surface. Mineral wool avoids undesirable noise and vibration propagation.
7. Thermal insulation pays back.
