When it comes to choosing a safe, durable and efficient cladding material, the rock wool sandwich panel has become one of the most recommended options for both industrial and residential buildings. Its excellent fire performance, thermal and acoustic insulation, and ease of assembly make it a highly demanded product in the industry.
What is a rock wool sandwich panel?
The sandwich panel consists of two metal sheets (usually galvanized and lacquered steel) enclosing an insulating core. In the case of the rock wool sandwich panel, this core is composed of compacted mineral fibers that provide fire and heat resistance far superior to other insulating materials such as polyurethane or PIR.
This type of panel is manufactured in different thicknesses and finishes, adapting to all types of projects: from industrial roofs and building facades to acoustic enclosures or cold rooms.
Advantages of rock wool sandwich panels
- Fire resistance: rock wool is non-combustible, which guarantees greater safety in case of fire.
- Excellent thermal insulation: reduces energy losses and improves building efficiency.
- Superior sound insulation: ideal for environments where noise reduction is required, such as workshops, industrial premises or technical rooms.
- Quick and clean assembly: the sandwich panel is easy to assemble thanks to its tongue-and-groove joint system, reducing installation time and costs.
- Durability: its metallic finishes protect the insulating core against humidity, corrosion and UV rays.
Most common applications
Rock wool sandwich panel is mainly used in:
- Cladding of facades and roofs with fire resistance requirements.
- Interior divisions in industrial buildings or logistics centers.
- Acoustic chambers or technical areas where a high level of sound insulation is required.
- Modular or prefabricated projects, where fast assembly is key.
Sandwich panel assembly: speed and precision
The sandwich panel can be assembled on metal or concrete structures. Its installation does not require complex machinery or welding, which makes it possible to install complete enclosures in a very short time. It is essential that the panels are handled correctly, avoiding bumps or deformations, and that they are fastened with specific screws to guarantee the watertightness and durability of the assembly.
