Better For The Workplace And The Environment: Roxul Industrial Pipe Insulations
Roxul offers three high-performance industrial pipe insulation products for demanding, high-temperature pipe applications. SturdiRock, Techton 1200, and Enerwrap 80 are stone wool based insulation products made from natural stone and recycled content. These are green products designed to stand up to the harsh conditions of North Americas oil and gas, power generation, and petrochemical industries. From extreme heat and moisture intense environments, Roxuls pipe insulations effectively reduce noise while providing excellent thermal performance, fire resistance and water repellence for the protection of personnel and equipment.
Water Repellent
Roxuls SturdiRock, Techton 1200, and Enerwrap 80 do not absorb water or hold moisture. The dense stone wool based material naturally repels and drains water away from pipes without compromising R-value. These products do not promote fungi, mildew, or bacteria growth and are chemically inert to eliminate corrosion.
Easy Installation
All Roxul industrial pipe insulations are easy to handle on job sites. The products higher densities make them simple to cut with a serrated knife for clean straight edges providing a better fit at the point of installation. Quick and easy cutting means less waste and faster installation, which saves money on labor and lost production time. Quick and easy cutting also means fast and simple routine maintenance.
Fire Resistant
The stone wool and recycled content combination in Roxuls pipe insulations makes these products non-combustible and fire resistant. These products are designed for operating temperatures up to 1400 F (760 C), withstanding the heat of up to 2150 F (1177 C) without melting. Roxul pipe insulations are excellent barriers to flame spread and critical lines of defence in fire control for personnel and equipment in plants and pipelines.
Technical Solutions
Roxuls Product Specialists Team help customers meet their insulation challenges head on with comprehensive support and expertise. Roxuls team provides all services, from calculating heat loss to proper nesting combinations, as well as recommendations for the most efficient thicknesses, and even installation.
Noise Control
Roxul pipe insulations stone wool compositions have unique non-directional structures and densities to effectively reduce airflow and essentially, sound transmissions. These denser structures, coupled with tight joints, create effective barriers to pipe noise and contribute to much quieter and safer work environments.
With the push to sustainable development in the building industry, Roxul leads the way with eco-friendly products that contain natural, inorganic materials made with recycled content that can be recycled infinitely.

Forgotten Potential
Despite operating temperatures of 392 F (200 C)-1112 F (600 C), hot pipes, boilers and tanks in power plants and process industries are insufficiently insulated. With the industrial sector consuming approximately 25 percent of all our energy, this represents a massive missed opportunity to achieve energy savings.
A Global Leader
Roxul Inc. is part of Rockwool International, the largest producer of stone wool insulation, which is made from natural basalt rock and recycled material. Rockwool International was founded in 1909 and today operates worldwide with more than 8,500 employees, with 25 factories across three continents. Rockwool has more than 40 years experience in developing and manufacturing advanced wall system products. For more than 20 years, Roxul has been serving the North American market. In addition to high temperature insulation for industrial applications, Roxul also manufactures a range of other premium insulation products for multiple applications.
Environmentally Sustainable
Our stone wool production process utilizes some of the most advanced technology available. The Roxul facility is designed to capture and recycle rainwater, reduce energy consumption, and create zero waste to landfill by recycling raw materials back into the production process. Roxul insulations are created using naturally occurring, inorganic raw materials and materials with a high-recycled content. Stone wool insulation is non-combustible and achieves its thermal performance without the use of blowing agents. The products do not off-gas and are fully recyclable, therefore contributing to a sustainable environment. Roxul is pleased to have third-party certification of our products recycled content for our Milton facility, completed by Icc-es saVe . All Roxul products produced in the Milton facility contain a minimum of 75% recycled content. Our Milton facility is certified to produce products containing up to 93% recycled content. For further details, contact your Roxul Sales Representative. Roxul products produced in our Grand Forks facility are currently under ICC-ES SAVE Certification review.
