RA Series EcoTouch® Insulation are lightweight blankets. Designed to provide excellent dimensional stability, excellent thermal and acoustical performance, and easy handling and installation. Great for Water Heater, HVAC double Wall, Sound Panel, and other OEM applications.

Owens Corning Fiberglass Corporation was originally founded in 1938 and is known for inventing glass fiber and glass fiber insulation. The company was formed from Corning Glass Company and Owens Illinois Glass Company and manufactured products throughout the United States and worldwide.

1947: Owens Corning invented the Pre-Forming Process for making FRP parts. The first commercial product made using pre-forming was the Eames one-piece FRP chair. 1945: Owens Corning worked with William Stout to develop the Stout-Scarab automobile: the first automobile with an FRP body.

At Owens Corning, sustainability is at the heart of our business, embedded in our values, and reflected in our mission to build a sustainable future through material innovation.

Usually made of recycled newsprint - about 75 to 85 percent recycled content - cellulose insulation is often heavily treated with flame retardants such as boric acid, borax or ammonium sulfate. These chemicals are effective flame retardants and can help reduce pests without harmful side effects to humans.

Owens Corning® Fiberglas™ insulation products are made using recycled content and renewable energy, and feature low VOC options, such as formaldehyde-free formulations, all to help you build more sustainably and earn valuable green building credits.

Owens Corning shingles are well known for their high quality because of the materials that are used and the process by which they are made. The shingles are layered with: Patented Fiberglas, which protects against the elements, and has a class A fire resistance rating.

A mission statement is a concise explanation of an organization's reason for existence and describes its purpose, intention and overall objectives. The mission statement supports the vision and serves to communicate purpose and direction to employees, customers, vendors and other stakeholders.

A company's mission statement defines its culture, values, ethics, fundamental goals, and agenda. Furthermore, it defines how each of these applies to the company's stakeholders - its employees, distributors, suppliers, shareholders, and the community at large.

Benefits of Environmentally Friendly Insulation Improved indoor air quality: Conventional insulation materials typically contain VOCs and other toxic substances that can compromise indoor air quality. High-quality eco-friendly insulation materials are also generally low in toxicity and emit fewer harmful chemicals.

Insulation is a key component of sustainable building design. A well insulated home reduces energy bills by keeping warm in the winter and cool in the summer, and this in turn cuts down carbon emissions linked to global climate change.

Owens Corning, the pioneer of fiberglass, created EcoTouch® Batt Insulation with PureFiber® Technology, a revolutionary new product platform that includes an average of 65% recycled content, with minimum of 47% post-consumer recycled glass.
