Cellulose
Insulation:
The Greenest of the Green
Why Cellulose?
A tried-and-true method of insulating homes for decades, cellulose is made from recycled paper with one of the highest percentages of post-consumer waste content of any insulation.
Its excellent sound insulating properties, high R-value per inch, and industry-leading environmental properties make cellulose insulation a perfect choice for insulating attics and walls.
Additionally, it is an excellent choice for adding insulation in walls of older homes due to the ease of installation.
