ROCKWOOL stone wool insulation is based on volcanic rock. Stone wool is non-combustible which means it can help stop the spread of a building fire and does not contain any chemical flame retardants. In addition, if it is exposed to fire it will not give off any significant amount of toxic smoke. 

Extremely durable, stone wool lasts more than 65 years without any loss of thermal efficiency, non-combustibility or dimensional stability. It can also be endlessly recycled at a growing number of locations, helping to reduce the amount of construction waste going to landfill.  

Nofia CO6000 is a poly(phosphonate-co-carbonate) and is part of a family of products that can be produced in a range of compositions from high to low phosphonate content.

Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are a class of highly porous adsorbent materials that have promising applications in catalysis, gas storage, and gas separation. However, their manufacture often generates large volumes of toxic waste and uses large amounts of energy. Acsynam’s innovative supercritical CO2 technology not only enables the rapid, cost-effective synthesis of high-quality, high-porosity MOFs, but also does so in a clean, sustainable and environmentally- friendly manner. This is achieved by virtually eliminating the high volumes of solvents and corrosive reagents usually necessary for the manufacture of MOFs.
