Croatia: Knauf Insulation has commissioned a new €120m, 60,000t/yr-capacity electric melting line for stone wool production at its Novi Marof insulation plant. The line is equipped with a submerged arc furnace and is capable of using up to 50% recycled raw material.

Technical director Leon Bustin said "This will add a selection of lower-embodied-carbon rock mineral wool products available to our customers, for applications such as flat roofs and sandwich panel boards."
