ABOUT
Cellulose Insulation
Cellulose insulation is a fiber insulation material made up of recycled paper content. In comparison to other insulation materials, cellulose insulation has a much higher concentration of recycled content, containing as much as 85% of recycled newspaper. The paper is fiberized so that it can be densely packed which provides for better air sealing. During processing, the material is also coated non-hazardous chemicals such as the mineral borate to act as a flame retardant, and resistance to pests and mold.
