The same principle used in glass wool is used in other man-made insulators such as rock wool, styrofoam, wet suit neoprene foam fabrics, and fabrics such as Gore-Tex and polar fleece.

Confusingly, many glass fibre composites continued to be called " fibreglass " ( as a generic name ) and the name was also used for the low-density glass wool product containing gas instead of plastic.

-- Synthetic mineral fibers : Various materials such as glass wool, slag wool, rock wool and ceramic refractory fibers, used in insulation and blown-on fireproofing for buildings and for the linings of boilers and furnaces.

Glass fiber when used as a thermal insulating material, is specially manufactured with a bonding agent to trap many small air cells, resulting in the characteristically air-filled low-density " glass wool " family of products.

For existing buildings that were not built with insulated cavities, a fibrous material such as cellulose insulation or glass wool is blown into the cavity through suitably drilled holes until it fills the entire wall space.

The straps of this backpack are wide enough to distribute the pressure on shoulders and also a white glass wool layer is added to the internal part of them to absorb dynamic forces, which could be produced through walking.
