D.S.E Group (Israel) : The D.S.E. Group is the only group in Israel covering nearly most of Solar & Alternative Energy and BASALT Technology for energy saving and unique developed applications out of BASALT Rocks. Cloth/ Fabrics basalt continuous fibers based are used not only for special protective wear and goods (like upholstery, curtains, carpets etc.), but also for hybrid fabric reinforcing and fabric-based laminates as well. Hybrid fabric reinforcing application: as body armor for ballistic protection. Fabric-based laminates application: as laminates for PCB. ISOMATEX (Belgium) : is first
European manufacturer of volcanic fibre product (Volcanic Rock's
Filament - FILAVA Kamenny Vek (Russia) : The
company Kamenny Vek was established in 2002 in Dubna, Moscow Region,
Russia. Kamenny Vek manufactures basalt continuous fibers. The main goal
of their company is a quality of their products and excellent service
and support. Their plant is equipped with modern hardware that allow for
achieving the highest properties and the best quality of basalt fibers.
The best labs and specialists worldwide are involved in development,
production, testing and quality control of their products. Their basalt
fibers show 15-20% higher tensile strength and modulus, better chemical
resistance, extended operating temperature range, better environmental
friendliness and recyclability than regular E glass Lancaster GTB Systems LTD (United Kingdom) : operates worldwide to supply key industries with application-specific products manuafactured from mineral, glass and metal fibres. The company is the sole producer of GTB (Gas Turbine Basalt) mineral fibre insulation. Internationally acknowledged to be the most reliable and cost effective acoustic filling for gas turbine silencers. GTB Basalt is made at our manufacturing plants in Europe and the USA. GTB Basalt mineral fibre Cotton stitched mattress in rolls Wired mattress (stainless or galvanised) Engineered pilows - made to fit original equipment Engineered systems for cost effective refurbishment Tested fire barrier materials Materials for brake lining Specialist fabrics, facing and needlemats Continuous filament glass fibres. MTLS International Inc. (USA) : Manufacturers' representatives of carbon and basalt fibers and filaments for high-performance technical and industrial applications. Research Institute Glassplastics and fiber: is a leading science and production enterprise, which specializes in developing and utilization of technologies and process plants for diverse glass fibers (basalt, silica, quartz) and also materials and products on the base of fibers mentioned above (pressboard, mates, textile, plates, shells, various insulation reinforcing materials etc) production. Their enterprise was created as scientific organization for developing and utilization at the USSR branch plants technological processes for manufacturing almost all types of glass fibers, including silica and quartz. Therefore, post- Soviet Union plants, that maintained glass fibers manufacture base on technological principles, developed by All-Union Research Institute "Glassplastics and fiber" (AURI GF). OJSC Research Institute ( http://www.niisv.com.ua/eng/lab_textil.htm ) "Glassplastics and fibre" is scientifically research institute, which is engages creation of technical knitted materials from glassfibre and mixed types of fibres complex . It Is group of materials with specific properties, which are used as reinforcing component in glassplastic designs, where the application woven fabrics are not expedient. The laboratory of knitted and non-woven fabrics of OJSC Research Institute "Glassplastics and fibre" engages in development of structures and technologies of manufacturing new resistant and rainforcing of materials. The modern equipment and large research-production experience of employees of laboratory allows in short terms to adjust industrial release of diversified production - from thin cords and sleeves to thick cloths and geotextile grids. Plant of Insulation Materials LLC (PIM) [Ukraine] is a producer of basalt fibered materials and offers most advanced know-how, technologies, engineering services, equipment for basalt materials production. 80% of PIM' materials and 100% of equipment and know-how are exported. This high market demand is due to superior properties of basalt fiber to other fibers in terms of thermal stability, heat and sound insulation properties, vibration resistance and durability. PIM exports materials to Russia, Belgium, Bulgaria, Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, Moldova and Tajikistan. Sudaglass : They own and
operate our fiber manufacturing facilities, ensuring customers reliable,
consistent supply of fiber products at predictable prices. Woven from
yarns made from continuous-filament basalt, these fabrics are
manufactured to varying thickness, weight, weave pattern and weaving
technique according to end-use requirements. Basalt
Technobasalt (Ukraine) : Basalt is well known volcanic lava rock that could be found in virtually every country around the world. Its main use is as crushed rock in construction, industrial and high way engineering. However, it is not commonly know that basalt can be manufactured into fine and superfine fibers. Continuous BASALT fiber is a unique product derived from volcanic lava deposits. Fiber is manufactured from BASALT rock in a single-melt process and comprised of single-ingredient raw material melts. BASALT fibers are superior to other fibers in terms of thermal stability; heat and sound insulation properties, vibration resistance, resistance to chemically active environments and durability.

Basalt fiber is produced in a continuous process
similar in many respects to that used to make glass fibers. Quarried
basalt rock is first crushed, then washed and loaded into a bin attached
to feeders that move the material into melting baths in gas-heated
furnaces. At that stage, the
process is actually simpler than glass fiber processing because the
basalt fiber has a less complex composition. Glass is typically 50
percent silica sand in combination with oxides of boron, aluminum and/or
several other minerals materials that must be fed independently into a
metering system before entering the furnace.
Unlike glass, basalt fibers feature no secondary materials. The
process requires only a single feed line to carry crushed basalt rock
into the melt furnace. On the other hand, basalt fiber manufacturers
have less direct control over the purity and consistency of the raw
basalt stone. .While basalt fiber is
still not widely used, it is slowly making its way into the hand of
consumers. At price points that vary between S-glass and E-glass, basalt
fibers have properties akin to S-glass. A common use is in the fire
protection sector because of its high melt-point.
Basalt is well
known as rock found in virtually every country around the world. Its
main use is as a crushed rock used in construction, industrial and
highway engineering. However it is not commonly known that basalt can be
used in manufacturing and made into fine, superfine and ultra fine
fibers. Comprised of single-ingredient raw material melt, basalt fibers
are superior to other fibers in terms of thermal stability, heat and
sound insulation properties, vibration resistance and durability.
