WOOD WOOL BOARD: Sustainable Insulation for Superior Performance
Introducing Wood Wool Board – a natural, sustainable, and high-performing insulation solution for your building projects.
Wood wool board, also known as wood fiber insulation board, is a composite material made from sustainably sourced wood fibers, bound with a natural or inorganic binder. This unique composition offers a compelling blend of thermal performance, sound absorption, and environmental responsibility. Unlike many synthetic insulations, wood wool board is breathable, contributing to a healthier and more comfortable indoor environment.
Key Features & Benefits:
- Exceptional Thermal Insulation: Wood wool board's inherent cellular structure traps air, providing excellent thermal resistance (R-value varies depending on thickness and density). This helps to reduce energy consumption for heating and cooling, lowering your utility bills and minimizing your carbon footprint.
- Superior Sound Absorption: The porous nature of the material effectively dampens noise transmission, creating a quieter and more peaceful living or working space. This is particularly beneficial in applications where noise reduction is critical, such as homes near busy roads or multi-family dwellings.
- Natural & Sustainable: Made from responsibly sourced wood fibers, wood wool board is a renewable and biodegradable material. Its low embodied energy and reduced environmental impact make it a responsible choice for environmentally conscious builders and homeowners.
- Breathable & Moisture-Regulating: Unlike many synthetic insulations, wood wool board allows for moisture vapor diffusion. This breathability helps to regulate humidity levels within the building envelope, preventing the build-up of moisture that can lead to mold and mildew growth.
- Durable & Long-lasting: Wood wool board is a robust material that offers excellent dimensional stability and longevity. It's resistant to sagging and compression, ensuring long-term insulation performance.
- Easy to Install: The boards are typically easy to cut and install using standard carpentry tools, making them a convenient option for both DIY projects and professional installations.
- Fire-resistant: Wood wool boards treated with appropriate fire retardants meet stringent fire safety standards, offering added peace of mind. (Please check specific product specifications for fire-resistance ratings.)
Applications:
Wood wool board is a versatile insulation material suitable for a variety of applications, including:
- External Wall Insulation: Creating a warm, comfortable, and energy-efficient building envelope.
- Internal Wall Insulation: Improving thermal comfort and sound insulation within the building.
- Roof Insulation: Providing effective thermal insulation and sound dampening in attics and roofs.
- Floor Insulation: Enhancing thermal comfort and reducing noise transmission in floors.
Specifications (vary depending on product):
- Thickness: Available in various thicknesses to suit different insulation requirements.
- Density: Density affects thermal performance and compressive strength.
- R-Value: The thermal resistance rating, indicating the material's ability to resist heat flow.
- Dimensions: Standard board sizes are generally available, but custom sizes might be possible.
