What is a Sandwich Panel?

A sandwich panel is a building material that consists of two outer layers and a core material sandwiched between them. These panels are widely used in the construction industry due to their excellent structural and insulation properties. The outer layers are usually made of metal, such as steel or aluminum, while the core can be made of various insulating materials like mineral wool (such as stone wool).

Why do we need insulated sandwich panels?

Building energy-efficient, safe, and sustainable structures presents is a huge challenge today. Sandwich panel constructions with a stone wool core can meet these requirements. They offer rapid construction, cost-effective processes, and improved energy efficiency for buildings.

Our solutions are suitable for insulating ceilings, interior and exterior walls, roofs, as well as for firewall applications. When installed, the core material provides:

  • Increased fire protection - Stone wool insulation incorporates non-combustible properties into sandwich panels, offering the highest European fire classification A2-s1, d0. This provides a better protection against flames compared to many other insulation types.
  • Acoustic capabilities - It blocks unwanted noise from adjacent or neighboring buildings. The acoustic absorption qualities of our stone wool can help combat the growing impact of noise pollution.
  • Thermal performance - Temperatures are better regulated within buildings thanks to the smart fiber structure of stone wool insulation. Improved energy efficiency also leads to cost and energy savings.
  • Bespoke solution - We offer solutions tailored to your needs. We integrated stone wool in composite panels in offsite. This allow to accelerate the construction phase.

Durability and energy efficiency

Our solutions help sandwich panel manufacturers create durable and environmentally friendly products. The integration of stone wool improves thermal insulation and energy efficiency in buildings.

Resource efficiency is essential, especially with climate neutrality goals like those in the Paris Agreement. That’s why ROCKWOOL is developing circular processes and providing environmental product declarations to ensure compliance with sustainable building standards.

Stone wool can be reuse and recycle over and over. This enhances durability in the construction and manufacturing sectors. Click here to know more about stone wool!
