Why Choose Cellulose Insulation?
Cellulose insulation is made primarily from recycled newsprint, making it one of the most environmentally responsible insulation materials on the market. It’s treated with fire‑resistant additives that also help deter pests and mold while remaining safe for residential and commercial use.
Key benefits of cellulose insulation include:
Strong energy‑saving performance with an average R‑value around R‑3.5 per inch
Excellent air‑sealing capabilities that help reduce drafts
Superior sound‑dampening compared to many other insulation types
High recycled content for environmentally conscious projects
Effective installation in attics, walls, and floors — even in existing homes
Cellulose is especially effective in older homes where insulation may be missing, settled, or uneven. It can often be installed over existing insulation without major disruption.
