Mineral Wool / Slag Wool is an efficient and versatile material for heat,cold and sound insulation.
Mineral Wool / Slag Wool is manufactured from selected blast furnace slag and a blend of minerals, in the form of blankets to controlled density and thickness to assure utmost insulating value.
The centrifuge spinning process adopted results in the fine, short fibres interleaved in a crisscross mesh to entrap minute dead air cells.
Mineral Wool / Slag Wool offers the convenience of a flexible insulation and excellent thermal efficiency, it is adaptable to flat or curved surfaces and do not break handling.
Ideal insulating material for all industries
Mineral Wool / Slag Wool is the most preferred insulating material in situations reqiring dependable high temperature insulation and conservation of heat. It is deal for use in power plants, high pressure boilers, turbines, high pressure steam pipe lines, steam-traced oil pipe lines, towers and columns, annealing furnaces, vulcanisers, chemical and dairy transport tankers, pressure vessels, industrial banking oven.
