The merit of ROCKWOOL is the formation of the Russian market for high-quality thermal insulation, and among the company's products there are materials for the device of almost all structures of any building under construction. Knowing in detail, first-hand, about all the features of the use of heat and sound insulation materials, methods of their competent installation in the construction of buildings, new technologies in the field of building insulation, our future builders and architects will learn to solve thermal insulation problems in an integrated manner, taking care of professionally about comfortable living, reducing heating costs and reducing construction costs”.
Director of the Union of Construction Industry Enterprises of the Sverdlovsk Region Yu. N. Chumerin noted in his speech that “it was the ROCKWOOL company that laid on the market of the Sverdlovsk region a new, systematic approach to the quality of housing, the quality of objects, and it is very important that with the opening of the classroom, students will understand building systems in terms of energy efficiency and energy saving”. Deputy General Director of the Union of Builders of the Sverdlovsk Region A. M. Vasiliev added: "Today, at the level of the Russian Federation, a certification system for specialists is being created, a list of standards has been drawn up - more than 800 in construction, so opening a new class will help students in their future work."
