Owens Corning
Our story is not simply a history of insulation or building supplies, or even the dates of inventions and buildings: It’s an intricate tale of innovation and growth spurred by reinvention, curiosity, and strong partnerships built over decades. Our roots reach back to an 1800s lab experiment that, through an unexpected twist, produced mineral wool insulation. This set off a wave of innovation for what would in time become the insulation industry we lead today. Over the decades that followed, we experimented with glass, partnering with organizations along the way to develop new applications and production methods for our innovative products. At the turn of the 20th century, glass manufacturing was focused on containers. By the 1920s, Owens Bottle Machine Company had a strong foothold in bottling. However, the advent of U.S. Prohibition and the Great Depression brought a series of challenges that drove the exploration of glass’s other capabilities.
