Insulation Materials: Your Guide to Energy Efficiency & Comfort

Maximize energy efficiency and enhance the comfort of your home or building with our comprehensive range of high-performance insulation materials. We offer solutions for every application, from attics and walls to floors and roofs, ensuring optimal thermal performance and cost savings.

Types of Insulation:

We offer a variety of insulation types to suit your specific needs and budget:

1. Fiberglass Insulation:

• Description: A staple in the insulation industry, fiberglass is known for its affordability, ease of installation, and excellent thermal resistance. Available in batts, rolls, and loose-fill options.
• Benefits: Cost-effective, readily available, good thermal performance, versatile.
• Applications: Attics, walls, floors, crawl spaces.
• R-Value: Varies depending on thickness and type; typically ranging from R-13 to R-49.

2. Cellulose Insulation:

• Description: Made from recycled paper and treated with borates for fire resistance, cellulose insulation is a loose-fill material blown into cavities.
• Benefits: Excellent thermal performance, environmentally friendly, air sealing properties, good sound dampening.
• Applications: Attics, walls, floors.
• R-Value: Highly variable based on density; typically R-3.1 to R-3.8 per inch.

3. Mineral Wool Insulation (Rock Wool & Slag Wool):

• Description: Made from molten rock or slag, mineral wool is a durable, fire-resistant, and sound-absorbing insulation. Available in batts, rolls, and rigid boards.
• Benefits: High fire resistance, excellent sound insulation, moisture-resistant, durable.
• Applications: Attics, walls, floors, pipes, industrial applications.
• R-Value: Varies depending on thickness and type; generally similar to fiberglass.

4. Spray Foam Insulation:

• Description: A two-part liquid that expands and hardens into a seamless, airtight seal. Available in open-cell and closed-cell formulations.
• Benefits: Superior air sealing, excellent thermal performance, moisture barrier, reduces drafts and noise.
• Applications: Attics, walls, crawl spaces, roofs, foundation.
• R-Value: Varies greatly depending on density and type; closed-cell generally higher than open-cell.

5. Rigid Foam Insulation (Polyurethane, Polyisocyanurate, Extruded Polystyrene):

• Description: Offered in boards or panels, rigid foam provides exceptional thermal performance and structural support.
• Benefits: High R-value per inch, strong and durable, excellent moisture resistance.
• Applications: Roofs, walls, foundations, exterior sheathing.
• R-Value: High R-value per inch; varies depending on thickness and type.

Choosing the Right Insulation:

Selecting the appropriate insulation depends on several factors including:

• Climate: Colder climates require higher R-value insulation.
• Building type: Different building structures may benefit from different insulation types.
• Budget: Some insulation materials are more expensive than others.
• Installation: Some insulation types are easier to install than others.
