Sustainable from beginning to end

With Rockpanel you choose a material that offers solutions for the problems of today and sustainable guarantees for the future.

1

Stone raw materials

The basic stone raw materials like natural basalt are widely available and the quantity of accessible stone reserves is more than suffi cient to supply the demand for Rockwool products for millions of years to come. The raw material can therefore be considered inexhaustible. Even the natural production of basalt alone is greater than the world-wide demand for stone wool products.

2

The production process

As a member of the Rockwool Group, Rockpanel is also committed to environmentally sound production practices. The stone raw materials like basalt are a natural material which is readily available and can be regarded as sustainable. Through a highly efficient manufacturing process we are able to produce more than 400 m2 of Rockpanel boards from 1 m3 of basalt. And we continue to strive for more efficient production techniques so that we can use our resources even more efficiently. Our products are treated with a water based coating and the production process is ISO 14001 certified.

3

Robust and safe

Stone wool is one of the most documented and researched building materials in the market. Due to its volcanic origin and the production process in which it’s made, the basalt is melted at temperatures over 1200 ºC. Rockpanel can withstand all the elements of nature. Rockpanel products are dimensionally stable, not sensitive to moisture or temperature fluctuations, exceptionally durable, and inherently safe to work with.

4

The life cycle

Rockpanel boards are fully recyclable. When re-used there will be no downgrading of the quality of the products.
