Asbestos is generally manufactured by processing mined asbestos fibers.
No. Rock wool is made from rock that has been melted and then forced through small holes to make long, fibrous strands. It does not contain any asbestos. Even if the rock used in the beginning did contain asbestos (and that kind of rock is not used for this) the asbestos fibers would be melted and destroyed in the manufacturing process.

the process of manufacturing
US Gypsum last used asbestos in their products in the mid-1970s. Following increased awareness of the health hazards associated with asbestos, the company ceased its use in manufacturing due to regulations and lawsuits related to asbestos exposure.
Rock wool is a product manufactured by melting rock and rock-like materials and forming it into thin fibers, roughly similar to the manufacturing of fibreglass. A product that is truly rock wool cannot contain asbestos because even if asbestos had been present in the raw materials, which was not the case, it would have been destroyed in the manufacturing process. However, the only way to know with certainty today whether something identified as 1950s era rock wool really is rock wool and not asbestos is to have a sample collected and analysed by qualified people and laboratories.
phased manufacturing process
Asbestos was never directly incorporated into tires. However, the manufacturing of tires involves the movement of hot materials through pipes, and those pipes may have been insulated with asbestos containing materials in some factories. Ingredients to make tires are: Fabric (steel, nylon, aramid fiber, rayon, fiberglass, or polyester), rubber, reinforcing chemicals, anti-degradants, adhesion promoter, curatives
I don't have access to specific company records or product lists for Kit Manufacturing Company. To determine if they have a list of mobile homes with asbestos isolation, I recommend contacting the company directly or checking their official website for any relevant information. Additionally, local regulations or industry resources may provide insights on asbestos-related features in mobile homes.
3 phases in manufacturing process
There are a number of firms that publish their manufacturing process online. You can find out about the manufacturing process through education websites as well, such as ALISON.
Canada began phasing out the use of asbestos in the late 1970s, with significant regulatory changes occurring in the 1980s. In Ontario, the use of asbestos in construction and manufacturing was effectively banned by 2000. Although some uses continued in specific applications for a time, the overall trend led to a complete ban on asbestos products in Canada by 2018.
Asbestos sheets were previously used in sublimation to prevent overheating and spread heat evenly during the transfer process. However, asbestos is now known to be a health hazard, so it is no longer recommended to use asbestos sheets in sublimation. Instead, alternatives like silicon sheets or Teflon sheets are used for a safer transfer process.
