What is Rockpanel cladding made from?

The core ingredient of Rockpanel facade cladding is a unique natural material: basalt. But what is basalt exactly? And why is it such a sustainable material?

How sustainable is basalt as a facade material?

Basalt, the volcanic stone that forms the basis of Rockpanel facade cladding, is a sustainable raw material that is sourced in a responsible way close to our factory. It’s a unique material that offers many advantages, such as fire resilience, high durability, dimensional stability and resistance against moisture. We’ll tell you more about the origin of basalt and how it’s mined.

The production process of Rockpanel facade cladding

How Rockpanel facade cladding is produced? From spinning lava to coating the pressed boards: we will take you through the production process of Rockpanel step by step.

Exterior cladding made of stone wool: naturally built-in fire safety

One of the many naturally built-in strengths of Rockpanel facade cladding is its fire resilience. And because Rockpanel is firesafe by nature, we don’t need to use toxic fire retardants. We’ll tell you more about how our built-in fire safety contributes to the sustainability of our products.

Rockpanel & fire safety: why is a high melting point of facade materials so important?

Rockpanel exterior cladding is made from basalt: a volcanic stone which can withstand extremely high temperatures by nature. This naturally built-in strength of stone is a very important aspect of the fire resilience of our sustainable facade boards.

Rockpanel cladding’s naturally built-in resistance to humidity

At Rockpanel, we use the natural properties of stone to create products resistant to the toughest conditions. One of the assets of stone fibres, where Rockpanel exterior cladding is made of, is that it’s resistant to humidity and moisture by nature.

Rockpanel exterior cladding: certified durable by nature

Building in a sustainable way means building for the long run. After all, the longer things last, the more sustainable they become. When buildings are built to last, less new resources need to be used. Rockpanel cladding, made of stone wool fibres, is durable by nature for many reasons.
