About
Mineral wool insulation R-15 is a fibrous thermal insulation material made from molten rock (basalt) or industrial slag spun into fine fibers. The manufacturing process involves heating raw materials to 1500°C and spinning them into wool-like strands, then binding with resins. This finished building material provides R-15 thermal resistance per inch thickness, making it ideal for residential and commercial wall cavities, attics, and soundproofing applications. Key properties include fire resistance up to 2000°F, moisture resistance, dimensional stability, and excellent acoustic dampening. Builders and contractors purchase mineral wool for its superior fire safety compared to fiberglass, consistent R-value performance across temperatures, and ease of cutting and installation. The material maintains its insulating properties even when wet and provides effective sound barrier for multi-family housing and commercial buildings.
