[191 Pages Report] The Mineral Wool Market size was estimated at USD 21.39 billion in 2023 and expected to reach USD 23.13 billion in 2024, at a CAGR 8.14% to reach USD 37.00 billion by 2030.
Mineral wool is a non-metallic, inorganic material manufactured from a precisely controlled mix of raw materials, mainly comprising either stone or silica, which are heated to a high temperature until molten. Mineral wool is widely used for providing insulation in buildings, both commercial and residential. Regions experiencing extreme climatic conditions leverage the use of mineral wool because of its excellent properties, such as thermal insulation, soundproofing, fire resistance, and water repellency, which ensures durability and safety. Furthermore, mineral wool is also utilized for the lining of high-temperature furnaces and reactors in the industrial sector and for insulation of oil and gas pipelines. However, the presence of alternatives to mineral wool in the market and poor thermal performance in certain applications impede the widespread adoption of mineral wool. Additionally, difficulties associated with the manufacturing and processing of mineral wool and the possibility of contamination of mineral wool products during the production process create cumbersome hurdles for the growth of mineral wool. However, major players are exploring new innovations and improvements in the manufacturing processes of mineral wool, which is expected to overcome production hurdles and positively affect the growth of mineral wool. Furthermore, advancing environmental sustainability initiatives and energy conservation programs and standards can create opportunities for manufacturers to create novel, sustainable mineral wool products.
