 Cellulose fiber is an ecological and economical thermal insulation material to be used on ceilings, attics, floors and wall structures. Cellulose fiber is an ideal thermal insulation material for both new and renovated buildings.
It is a mineral fiber based on environmentally friendly materials used to protect the insulation material against fire and rot.
Insulation can be excellent, high quality and use materials that would otherwise be dumped into landfills.
 Material contains 80% post-consumer recycled newsprint.
Blown-in Cellulose insulation claims to increase the insulation value of homes by filling voids better than roll or blanket insulation to prevent heat transfer and air infiltration.
Loose-fill Cellulose insulation is a dry installment for walls and attics. Run through a blowing machine, Loose-fill can be installed through access holes in the walls after the interior finish, installed into a netting system or reinforced by the poly-barrier retaining membrane.
 Loose-fill Cellulose should never be blown into an exhaust fan or come into contact with any overhead lighting or lighting fixtures..
Stabilized Cellulose contains a slight moisture additive and adhesive, so it is useful in horizontal applications such as attics.
Builders and installers often choose to use Stabilized Cellulose for two reasons: The moisture additive helps to control for the dust, and the product is less expensive.
