Abstract
Exterior, water-repellant facing or covering for a roof or a wall. The material is in the form of plates or slabs with overlap or butt joints. The material may include a support web. To eliminate the risk of condensation and to reduce the transmission of heat, the material is formed of mineral wool and a bonding agent. The fibres of the mineral wool lie predominantly within planes which are perpendicular to the external surface of the material.

Weather-resistant material for covering a roof, wall, or the like, said weather-resistant material comprising slabs of mineral wool fibers and a bonding agent, said slabs forming a common external surface, said fibers lying predominantly in planes which are perpendicular to said common external surface.
Weather-resistant material for covering a roof, wall, or the like, said weather-resistant material being produced by:
- (a) cutting slabs from a web of mineral wool fibers and a bonding agent;
- and
- (b) orienting said slabs such that said slabs from a common external surface and such that said fibers predominantly lie in planes which are perpendicular to said common external surface.
A weather-resistant system, comprising:
- (a) a building;
- and
- (b) weather-resistant material covering a portion of said building, said weather-resistant material comprising slabs of mineral wool fibers and a bonding agent, said slabs forming a common surface which is external to said portion of said building, said fibers lying predominantly in planes which are perpendicular to said common external surface.
