Insulation for Tasmania

Wool, used by early man as a natural insulator, still retains the same fundamental advantages over other insulation materials that has distinguished it for thousands of years.

Environmentally friendly, non-allergenic and naturally flame retardant natural wool insulation has a high thermal resistance. Wool is durable, resilient and safe to install – wool is a renewable resource. Wool fibres are naturally superior to synthetic fibres, as well as longer lasting. The flexibility of the wool fibre also makes it more durable. A wool fibre can be bent back on itself more than 20,000 times without breaking, compared to about 3,000 times for cotton and 2,000 times for silk.

The capacity to absorb makes wool a ‘temperature regulator’ because it can protect the body in both cold and warm conditions. Wool always absorbs moisture from the atmosphere of greater humidity and releases it to the drier environment as it create a balance in moisture conditions. This characteristic makes wool a versatile all-season fabric.

When wool absorbs moisture it actually emits energy which warms the wool and prevents condensation. During the winter season you will lose up to 25% through the walls, 45% through the ceiling and 15% through floors. The opposite flow rate will occur in summer. Be cool in summer and warm in winter by carefully installing wool insulation into your home.

Natural wool insulation has been tested under AS/NZS 1530.3-1999 for early fire hazard performance.
