Paroc to electrify production at Hällekis mineral wool insulation plant

30 August 2024

Sweden: Paroc has broken ground on the conversion of its Hällekis mineral wool insulation plant from coke-fired production to the use of electric furnaces. The producer says that the upgrade will eliminate 80% of the plant’s CO2 emissions. It is additionally installing new raw materials handling and filtration equipment at the plant. Work is scheduled for completion in 2027.

Nico del Monaco, Insulation President of US-based parent company Owens Corning, said "We have seen that the landscape for our industry in the Nordics is undergoing significant changes, with new CO2 restrictions and expectations from customers. By proactively addressing these changes through projects like this, we can turn them into opportunities. This significant investment is an important step for not only our plant in Hällekis, but it also reinforces Owens Corning's mission to build a sustainable future through material innovation."
