Slag wool is a fiber product made from blast furnace slag. Slag wool is the use of industrial waste slag (blast furnace slag and copper slag, aluminum slag) as the main raw material, after melting, a cotton filamentous inorganic fiber high speed centrifugation or blowing method process.

The global slag wool market is anchored in its role as a high-performance insulation material derived from industrial byproducts. Slag wool, also known as mineral wool or stone wool, is manufactured by spinning molten slag and other rock-like materials into fibers. Its excellent thermal resistance, sound absorption, and fireproofing qualities make it a go-to solution across various industries. Common applications include building and construction, where it serves as wall, roof, and HVAC insulation, as well as industrial settings like power plants, refineries, and shipbuilding. The ability of slag wool to effectively reduce energy consumption while enhancing safety attributes has solidified its position in modern infrastructure development.

In recent years, the industry has seen a push toward sustainability and eco-efficiency, reflecting a broader shift across the materials sector. Manufacturers are optimizing production processes to reduce emissions and repurpose more furnace slag, aligning with circular economy principles. Innovations in binder formulations are also underway to address concerns about volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and ensure compliance with increasingly stringent indoor air quality standards. As global construction and industrial modernization efforts proceed, the slag wool market is expected to continue evolving—embracing greener manufacturing, enhanced performance characteristics, and expanded end-use reach.
