Offsite construction transforms the world of industrial manufacturing. By changing how you design your applications, you can gain in efficiency.
It involves fabricating components in a factory and assembling them on site. This modern method of construction offers many advantages over traditional methods. It allows for reduced construction times, ensures better cost management and higher building quality.
Traditional construction relies on manual methods. The delivery team brings materials to the site, and workers construct each building materials.
This approach can often bring delays because of weather conditions or the availability of raw materials. Uncontrolled costs can lead to unexpected events. Internal organisation can also be more complex.
Offsite construction helps by dividing up the work. By assembling all the building components in advance, you save time and simplified the application.
These benefits overcome the challenges of traditional construction, offering a more efficient, rapid and cost-effective solution for residential building or industrial building.
3D modular includes structural elements as well as interior finishes. A factory produces modules, ensuring high quality and minimal errors. Workers quickly assemble these modules on-site, reducing construction time by 30 to 50%.
At ROCKWOOL Core Solutions, we supply quality and resistant stone wool for this type of application. Thanks to its thermal and acoustic performance, it is an ideal choice for comfort. Also a safe choice, stone wool is resilient to fire, water, and moisture. Whether you're building residential, commercial, educational or even healthcare buildings, 3D modular is an innovative and flexible method.

Cost Reduction  - 3D modular construction is more economical. Manufacturing modules in a factory reduces labor costs and allows for bulk purchasing of materials at lower prices. Shorter on-site construction times also reduce overhead and project costs.
Quality and Performance - Factory-made modules meet strict quality standards and local regulations. Stone wool enhances thermal performance, acoustic comfort, and fire safety. It provides excellent insulation, maintains comfortable indoor temperatures, reduces heating and cooling needs, and minimizes unwanted noise while offering fire resistance.
Energy Efficiency - 3D modular construction ensures stable indoor temperatures with high-performance insulation like stone wool. This reduces energy use for heating and cooling. Factory also allows for passive energy designs and renewable technologies, lowering the carbon footprint and saving energy long-term. They provide a controlled environment, useful in offsite construction.
By including our stone wool, these panels benefit from enhanced thermal insulation, which helps maintain stable indoor temperatures.
They also provide superior acoustic insulation, reducing noise and creating a more comfortable environment. Additionally, stone wool enhances the panels' fire resistance, offering better protection for the building. This combination of durability and advanced insulation properties makes precast concrete panels an excellent choice for modern construction projects.
Fire Resistance - Stone wool is non-combustible and can withstand flames of up to 1,000 degrees without any loss of efficiency. It gives effective fire protection. Adding stone wool to concrete wall panels makes buildings safer from fires. This is a huge challenge in tall buildings, hospitals, and industrial areas.
Durability - Stone wool resists moisture and mold. Adding it to concrete panels helps the building last longer. It protects against water damage and keeps the structure strong. This is important in wet environments to prevent material decay and keep the building sturdy over time.
Comfort - Concrete panels with stone wool improve both thermal and acoustic comfort. Stone wool is great for maintaining a stable and comfortable indoor temperature, reducing the need for heating and cooling. It also blocks external noise, making the interior quieter and more pleasant. This creates a better living and working environment for the building’s occupants.
They do not support any load apart from the environmental forces acting on them.
These panels are ideal for the construction of luminous buildings. They improve the comfort and durability of your applications using stone wool. Being robust and durable, stone wool is a wise and flexible choice for many applications. This material will offer you quality thermal, acoustic, fire-resilience and water performance.
Efficiency - These systems incorporate insulated glass to reduce heat transfer, maintaining a comfortable environment and lowering energy costs. In addition, their lightweight design reduces the load on the building structure, making installation easier and saving construction costs.
Durability - Made from aluminum, steel, and glass, curtain wall panels are highly durable and require minimal maintenance. They also provide excellent weather protection, ensuring a dry and comfortable building.
Aesthetic - Curtain wall panels offer a clean, modern look, enhancing the visual appeal of any building. Available in different materials, colors and finishes, they can suit different building styles. Their design with large glass panels allows maximum penetration of natural light. This creates a welcoming interior space while reducing artificial lighting.
Stone wool is a performance insulator, offering superior sound absorption. In addition to its acoustic benefits, stone wool also provides fire resistance, thermal insulation, and waterproofing properties. This makes it ideal for offsite construction, where high standards of performance and safety are crucial.
To meet your needs, we offer full support throughout your project. In addition to supplying the insulation product, we oversee the integration of stone wool into your construction process. We test our products, conduct application trials, and certify our activities.
