RW SEMI-RIGID AND RIGID SLABS RW SEMI-RIGID AND RIGID SLABS Durability Sustainability ROCKWOOL stone wool is produced from diabase rock, which is naturally and continually replenished from within the earth at a higher rate than it is used. ROCKWOOL have invested to make sure recycling is a key part of our business. Waste material, refurbishment and demolition waste, along with off-cuts, can all be transformed into ROCKWOOL insulation briquettes and used in our furnaces. In fact, more than 75% of our stone wool waste is recycled. ROCKWOOL also runs a product recycling program from our...
