What does the research show about the health and safety of rock and slag wool?
The health aspects and safe use of mineral wools have been examined for nearly 70 years. NAIMA and its member companies have invested tens of millions of dollars in research projects – with leading independent laboratories and universities in the United States and abroad – to investigate the possible human health effects of rock and slag wool as well as other synthetic vitreous fibers (SVFs), such as fiber glass.
