Knauf Insulation is investing to increase the production capacity of its Glass Mineral Wool plants in UK and Germany.
More than £45 million is being invested in the UK’s St Helens and Cwmbran plants to meet demand for Knauf Insulation’s Glass Mineral Wool solutions.
The investments at St Helens include a larger furnace, upgraded equipment as well as the purchase of an adjacent site, while at Cwmbran there will be investment in packaging equipment to optimise manufacturing and logistics. Such optimisation in Cwmbran will lead to taking 1.5 million truck miles every year off the road.
Meanwhile, Knauf Insulation is also investing to increase the production capacity of its Glass Mineral Wool plant in Bernburg, Germany.
Demand for Mineral Wool for energy‑efficient buildings continues to soar and the investment will increase volume through modernisation an facilities expansion.
