Loft Insulation

One of natures best insulators - wool

Naturally breathable, durable, controlling condensation and highly energy efficient, wool is, of course, a wholly natural fibre from a fully renewable resource offering an idea energy balance and long-term energy savings for you.

Cool in summer… When the outside temperature increases and begins to heat the wool, it releases moisture; this has a cooling effect on the fibre, which reduces the flow of heat to the inside of the building. This can reduce peak temperature by up to 7°C when compared to buildings in which alternative forms of insulation are installed.

Warm in winter… In the winter the absorption of moisture by wool insulation can increase peak temperature by up to 4°C when compared to buildings in which alternative forms of insulation are installed.

Containing no permethrin, pyrethroids, pesticides or formaldehydes, Thermafleece is manufactured to a density of 25kg/m3, giving a K-value of 0.039 W/m.K and is completely harmless and recyclable. Not irritating to the skin, eyes or respiratory tract and causes no discomfort to site workers or occupants during installation, any fibres which happen to reach the living space will present no hazard to health. The necessary insect proofing and fire resistance rating is achieved by the inclusion of naturally derived additives.

Thermafleece is ideal for use in both new-buildings and refurbishment projects. It offers the customer an alternative environmental and technical specification and can be used in a wide variety of roof, wall and floor construction. For further information visit: www.secondnatureuk.com
