For most, it’s being curled up by a fire in a warm and cosy house as winter time is a physical reminder of the importance buildings play in keeping us warm and protected from harsher elements.

A key factor in keeping buildings warm is insulation. Up until the 1970s, insulation in homes was barely a consideration but now it’s recognised as a fundamental part of the building fabric.

Insulation can be applied to roofs, cavity walls, solid walls, floors and more. When installed correctly it works well – creating a cosy environment and potentially saving the building occupant on energy bills.

However, for insulation to do the best job it can, it needs to work well in relation to other systems in the building fabric such as ventilation and air tightness. If all of these areas are considered in the design stage it can make for a much healthier home.

=== Why wood fibre insulation? ===

Wood fibre insulation is natural and natural fibre insulation has been used for thousands of years. Wood fibre is made from tiny cellulose microfibres held together with a lignin resin, a natural resin that is part of the tree.

The benefit of this is that wood fibre allows for moisture movement, which is essential to the building fabric. Combined with good ventilation and air tightness systems, vapour can transfer through the building fabric allowing for breathability. In this way, moisture levels can be maintained at the optimum level and the build-up of damp and mould is decreased.

The different ways of manufacturing wood fibre insulation allow for varied densities, compressive strength, heat storage, and moisture movement. This means it can be used for a range of construction projects.

Wood fibre insulation works well with timber frame buildings. The way the insulation can be fitted around the openings on the timber frame can achieve very low heat conduction values, in comparison with other construction products, which can total up to an 80% reduction in heat loss.
