Rockwool Foundation

The ROCKWOOL Foundation was established in December 1981, when six members of the Kähler family transferred the equivalent of 25 percent of the shares in ROCKWOOL A/S. From the start, the stated objective of the Foundation was to support independent and credible research to the benefit of the population in general, and the ROCKWOOL Foundation Research Unit was founded in 1987 to accommodate precisely this aim. The Research Unit has offices in Copenhagen and Berlin today.
