Rockwool is used as a sound absorbing material within Ventuer acoustic louvres because of its acoustic performance and moisture resistant properties. It is also non combustible and vapour permeable, helping reduce moisture accumulation within the aluminium blades while maintaining consistent acoustic performance.
Together, the aluminium construction, perforated surfaces and Rockwool insulation create a durable acoustic louvre system designed to manage airflow, weather exposure and noise.
But how is Rockwool actually made?
Rockwool, also known as stone wool or mineral wool, is made by melting volcanic rock and recycled industrial materials before spinning into fine, intertwined fibres.
For a closer look at the manufacturing process, the History of Simple Things channel has created this video showing how stone is transformed into Rockwool insulation.
