Mineral Wool

Not many things have been copied or developed from a sheep, but one example is man made wool. Man made wool is mineral wool, which insulates heat in and out, like when your walking down the hallway and you feel airwaves go past you. Mineral wool is made up of fibres that have been created via spinning and stretching minerals. These fibres could be polyester, microfibres, or nylon. You find mineral wool in carpets, jerseys and similar substances.
