THE WHAT AND WHY
OF CELLULOSE
Cellulose is derived from nature. Actually, it’s made from paper (think wood pulp). Recycled paper (like newspaper) is first shredded and then treated with a unique formula to create our cellulose insulation. There’s a lot of paper out there, and we work hard to secure the best sources. If you’ve ever wondered what becomes of recycled paper, now you know.
MORE REASONS TO CONSIDER CELLULOSE
-
Superior Noise Suppression
Because of its density, cellulose provides superior noise suppression, reducing sound power by up to 60%.1
-
Works Efficiently
Cellulose is denser and has better resistance to airflow than fiberglass, so it works more efficiently as insulation.
-
Ease of Use
Our cellulose is easy to install without any special skills. It can be blown into small, restricted spaces and installed over existing insulation.
-
Environmentally Responsible
By using recycled materials from local sources, low-energy manufacturing and short-haul transportation, Greenfiber® gives you an environmentally responsible choice with our cellulose insulation.
-
Low-Energy Manufacturing
Greenfiber insulation uses just one-fifth of the energy to manufacture than that used to make competing insulation products.2
-
Quality & Sophistication
Cellulose has improved in quality and sophistication over time, and it now provides exceptional resistance to fire and moisture. What other insulation can claim these benefits and also provide the superior thermal and sound insulation that comes naturally to cellulose?
