“Our introduction of the first North American formaldehyde-free mineral wool solutions reflects our continuous investment into building science expertise, technical resources, and product innovation,” said Todd Fister, vice president of insulation strategic marketing. “Remaining true to the brand’s history as an industry pioneer, the launch of formaldehyde-free Thermafiber mineral wool insulation coupled with our investment in a state-of-the-art manufacturing facility in Joplin, Missouri strengthens our impressive portfolio of product solutions and our commitment to the industry.”

Based upon their fire resistance and performance properties, Thermafiber mineral wool insulation products have been installed in eight of the 20 tallest buildings in the world including the record-breaking Burj Khalifa tower in Dubai, U.A.E. In addition to the newformaldehyde-free offerings, Thermafiber mineral wool insulation also contributes to credits in green building programs and has a minimum 70 percent recycled content.

From the formaldehyde-free Thermafiber mineral wool insulation product innovation to the customizable Owens Corning Enclosure Solutions systemization approach, Owens Corning Insulating Systems delivers building science expertise to help architects, specifiers, and contractors select the right solution for each project.
