Wool insulation is a natural resource that is environmentally friendly.
Flame Resistant Wool is naturally flame resistant
Superior Insulator - Research has shown that wool is a better thermal insulator than other fibres under typical weather conditions because of its ability to absorb and dissipate. When outside temperatures increase the wool is heated and releases moisture which has a cooling affect on the fibre and the building. When outside temperatures decrease the wool absorbs moisture
Natural Sound Block - Wool insulation absorbs sound and therefore reduces noise levels considerably.
Recyclable - Wool may be used for other environmentally friendly applications at the end of its useful life not just landfills
Wool is also a very efficient absorber of indoor air pollutants.-Research has shown that it can absorb and permanently retain high levels of formaldehyde, emitted from some common building materials, furniture and nitrogen dioxide and sulphur dioxide, which are normal by-products of combustion processes (eg, gas stoves and heaters).
