The construction sector in Moscow, which is actively developing as part of renovation programs and the construction of modern residential complexes, places high demands on the quality and safety of the materials used. One of the key components that provide thermal and sound insulation, as well as fire safety for buildings, is basalt board, or stone wool. This non-combustible insulation material, which is produced from the melting of rocks, is in high demand.

This article provides an analysis of regional specialization and supply of basalt thermal insulation for the Moscow region.
