Rockwool Panels
Rockwool panels are well known in the industry for fire-resistant properties. They are made from stone wool which forms the core insulation panel. This layer is sandwiched between two outer metal sheets.
The stone wool insulation material is compressed into dual-density rigid boards. The exterior surface of the insulation board is compressed more than the rest of the board. So the outer surface is stronger and offers higher compressive strength in the insulation system

Common Types of Rockwool Panels
- Exterior wall Rockwool
Exterior wall insulation thin plastering system is a type of non-bearing insulation structure, that comprises of three layers - insulation layer, protective layer, fixed. It is fixed on the outward surface of the exterior wall. These layers carry the attributes of fire safety, insulation, waterproof capability, etc. - Single metal roof Rockwool
As the name itself sounds, this is a single layer of flexible and waterproof roofing system built with Rockwool which has thermal insulation material. It is suitable when a building is being newly constructed for roof repair. - Double metal roof Rockwool
The double-layer metal roof is a structural system where vertical locking joints at built on the top or on corrugated plates.

Advantages of Rockwool Sandwich Panels
There are some major benefits of Rockwool panels as regards their insulation. They are listed below:
- Rockwool stone wool fibers have the capability to withstand up to 1000°C without melting. This means it can prevent the fire from spreading beyond a certain point.
- Rockwool panels have good insulation properties. For instance, when a 120mm panel is attached outward, it can reportedly take down the u-value. For occupants, this means increased comfort levels inside since temperature remains controlled.
- Rockwool stone wool also has excellent sound insulation properties.
- Rockwool is also breathable. It allows moisture to travel across the wall, which can help dissipate dampness.
- Rockwool sandwich panels are manufactured in strict accordance with the drawing layout. The construction time can be reduced by up to 40%. Therefore Rockwool sandwich panels are ideal for buildings that have to be constructed fast.

- Metal skin on either side of panel should have minimum 90gsm of galvanizing coating otherwise the sandwich panel tend to get trusted after some time
- The color coated metal skin on either side should have a minimum 20-25 microns of paint otherwise paint will look shabby or tear apart after some time.
