The aimof research was to investigate the issue of dust emissions from representative insulation products available on the market under their application. The tests were performed using a laser and optical particle counter. The research work was carried out in two stages (in situ method and chamber method). The article presents the results of the first stage, i.e. the assessment of dust concentrations performed during various phases of installation of insulation (polystyrene and mineral wool) in special laboratory conditions.
