In addition to better energy efficiency, rock wool insulation also offers a number of other benefits. The product is resistant to mold and mildew growth as well as rodents which means it can be used in both residential and commercial applications without worry about health issues or damage caused by pests. For those with allergies, the flame retardant chemicals we add to our rock wool insulation will help provide relief from common symptoms such as sneezing, coughing, and sniffling. Those with asthma may also benefit from the anti-allergen properties of our stone wool insulation which can reduce asthma flare ups caused by dust mites and other allergens in your home.
