Why is it worth choosing PETRALANA rock wool?



One thousand zlotys? Or maybe two thousand a year? The sum of savings on heating bills is determined depending on the calculating fantasy. The real value of a professionally made thermomodernization depends, however, on many factors, sometimes uncountable to PLN. Comfort is not only a constant temperature.

Insulation materials for walls, floors and roofs usually disappear quickly under plaster or construction, so most users do not even know what they look like. While their appearance does not impress and is not interesting, it is already the construction, safety and convenience of assembly as well as the benefits of using it that should be of interest not only to construction professionals.Especially that it is an investment in safety and comfort for many subsequent years.

HOW A SCALINE WOOL HAS CREATED

PETRALANA insulating materials used for insulating buildings are made of lava, obtained from fusing rocks at a temperature of over 1500 degrees. They are then defibered, shaped and fixed. As a result, a material resembling raw sheep's wool is created.

PETRALANA - rock wool

WHY IS IT WORTH TO CHOOSE A PETRALAN SCALINE WOOL?

The benefits of using rock wool insulation materials can be divided into three main groups:

THERMAL ISOLATION

Mineral rock wool as a thermal insulation material ensures maximum insulation of the building in winter, as well as prevents the heating of interiors in the summer when the temperatures reach the highest values. Rock wool, manufactured at the PETROALANA factory in Bytom is a product that is characterized by very good thermal insulation properties. Lambda, or heat transfer coefficient, is the basic parameter determining the quality of this product. The lower its value, the better the thermal insulation of the product. Most of the materials manufactured by PETRALANA reach values ​​below 0.035 W / Mk, which distinguishes them among similar products.

FIRE INSULATION

Mineral rock wool products from the PETRALANA factory in Bytom have the highest class of fire resistance A1, which makes them completely non-flammable products and provide excellent fireproof insulation. In the event of a fire hazard, mineral rock wool acts as a safety net that delays the propagation of flames. In addition, in direct contact with the fire it does not produce harmful smoke and burning drops. All this makes it easier to take appropriate extinguishing actions.

ACOUSTIC ISOLATION

Mineral rock wool is the only acoustic insulation that has such high parameters of sound absorption and suppression. The "rock" sound insulation allows effective noise reduction even at very high levels. (For: www.miwo.pl) Acoustic insulation of products from Bytom puts them at the forefront of stone wool materials available on the market.

FROM STILL LIFE INSULATION

Mineral rock wool as a natural product is resistant to the influence of external factors in the period of many years of use.Mineral wool is used only for natural, carefully selected raw materials that come from reliable (mostly domestic) suppliers. The basic materials used in the production process are gabbro and basalt - volcanic rocks, which due to their properties give rock wool its exceptional fire resistance and excellent thermal insulation properties and sound insulation.

In this way, we create the only, unique product with unique parameters and versatile applications. Mineral rock wool PETRALANA as a natural product is resistant to the influence of external factors, which guarantees the preservation of properties and integrity of insulation in the period of many years of use.

QUALITY BEFORE EVERYTHING

The Laboratory of Quality Control Department of PETRALANA SA constantly monitors the quality of products.

- Our team of specialists, using professional tools, regularly examines randomly sampled insulating materials in terms of their compliance with the declared parameters. We carry out a number of laboratory analyzes, ranging from a detailed analysis of raw materials, to monitoring the parameters of the finished product, based on strength and geometric tests, thermal resistance, water absorption and the content of organic substances. The results of these analyzes are immediately transferred to the Production Department. The use of state-of-the-art technologies allows us to constantly take care of the highest quality of our products. - says Wioletta Szyguła, Head of the Quality Control and Certification Department.

PETRALANY OFFER

The Bytom factory's products are divided into five groups.

The PETRALIGHT product group are materials for general construction, which can be used for the isolation of attic and non-usable attics, ventilated flat roofs, suspended ceilings, partition walls and curtains, floors on joists as well as frame structures, including elevation ones.

The PETRALIGHT product group

PETRAVENT Group are products for ventilated facades. They are used in the insulation of external walls, insulated with light dry method of panels and those with facades made of stone or glass, external and internal skeletal walls, partition walls, curtain walls and three-layer walls.

PETRAVENT group products

PETRAFAS products are used in non-ventilated facades. These materials for insulation of external walls, insulated in the ETICS system, monolithic, prefabricated and masonry external walls, ceilings over garages, passages and basements, jambs and walls on the arch plan. They are also suitable for the fire-proof insulation of the attic and fire and acoustic staircases. They have the highest class of fire resistance A1, which means they are simply non-flammable.

The PETRAFAS product group

PETRAROOF are products used to insulate roofs, including those with increased strength requirements, and where rock wool is installed in a single- and double-layer system.

The PETRAFLOOR product group are materials for floor insulation. The products are used on concrete ceilings and floors of almost all types; on joists, floating, wooden ventilated, heavily loaded and also on the ground. In addition, Petralan rock wool is suitable for insulation under concrete screed.

Stone wool for the needs of industry is manufactured to individual order, tailored to the customer's needs.

It is worth repeating that the use of natural raw materials makes wool rock a natural and environmentally friendly product. The use of mineral stone wool as thermal insulation, sound insulation or fire insulation contributes to significant savings and environmental protection by reducing energy consumption and carbon dioxide emissions to the atmosphere.
