Mineral wool (MW) is an indispensable building material. The volume of bulk purchases of MW on B2B platforms is growing every year. You can order MW in the B2B Mineral-Wool section on Globy. MW is an inorganic insulation material that is used to insulate ceilings, floors, or interior walls. The scope of application of the material is wide – MW is used in the construction and repair of residential and industrial premises. MW is available in the form of fibrous plates or rolls impregnated with a special compound. There are many types of mineral wool, differing in thickness, composition, fiber type, weight, and other parameters. MW can be used to insulate balconies, roofs, greenhouses, and other rooms, so the material is always in demand on the market.

One of the properties of MW is its low thermal conductivity. The fibers have high thermal resistance and retain heat in the room. When choosing MW, buyers should pay attention to the density: the higher this parameter, the lower the thermal conductivity of the material; the minimum value is 40, the maximum is 220 kg/m3. In addition to its low thermal conductivity, MW has a sound-absorbing effect, so the material can be used for music studios and other rooms that need to be insulated and have noise reduction. High-quality MW can have a sound absorption coefficient from 0.5 to 0.9 (on a scale of 0-1). 

You can purchase goods in bulk on the Globy B2B platform, which operates around the clock and invites new suppliers, buyers, distributors, and logisticians for mutually beneficial cooperation. The platform does not charge a commission for transactions and has a catalog for searching for products. You can leave a “delivery request” on Globy, as well as redeem abandoned cargo. Aspiring vendors can get promoted on social media. Logisticians can register on the website and offer transportation services. More than forty thousand participants have already been registered on the platform. This number is increasing every day. Globy has many advantages, and some of them are listed below:

Among other things, MW is moisture resistant. The fibers have a synthetic base, so they do not absorb water, while the material allows steam to pass through well. As a result, the room insulated with MW remains dry at any time of the year. There is no condensation on the walls. MW is impregnated with water-repellent compounds and is used even in rooms with high humidity. Also, mineral wool burns poorly, does not flare up, but smolders; when choosing a material, pay attention to the fire resistance class, the highest is A1 (up to 600 °C).

Many studies of mineral wool have been conducted. They have shown that the material has a long service life, which can reach 50 years or more. MW is not affected by mold, insects, or rodents, does not dry out over time, and does not disintegrate. In addition, the material is easy to disassemble. One of the disadvantages of MW is the danger to humans: when it gets on the skin, MW can cause itching and burning. To avoid this effect, you need to wear a protective suit. The worker must remember to protect the organs of vision and respiration: it is necessary to use glasses and a mask.

As a result, we can say that MW is an excellent material for room insulation and noise reduction. It can be used in dry and wet rooms. MW is ideal for the insulation of roofs and ceilings. You can order mineral wool online: open the Globy marketplace and select the desired product. Registration on the portal will take only a few minutes. We recommend entering your company’s real data during registration because it can be verified. One of the most important advantages of Globy is the absence of scammers and questionable suppliers on the platform.
