	Hi Jithin What is the mineral? Such minerals could be used for High Temperature insulations from 200 deg C to 1000 + deg C. They could be used for developing and manufacturing Electrical accessories/ switch-gear systems etc. we could develop some sample recycled High-Value Products if some samples of the mineral wool could be obtained Best regards pvh __________________ Our values have to be measured by what we could offer to the society and to the world, when a "balance sheet" is drawn up at the time we leave our "foot prints on the sands of time".

	Hi.. Thank you for a wonderful suggestion. We are using rock wool here. I can send you some samples if you can send your address to CR4 Admin - email address removed From the CR4 Rules: Do not post phone numbers or email addresses.
