Extensive
research provides supporting scientific evidence of
the thermal advantages of wool over other insulation
fibre materials. Wools ability to rapidly absorb and
desorb moisture from the surrounding air enhances its
cooling effect. Wool is naturally fire retardant and
dust free, Wool has excellent acoustic properties. Being
soft fibre, wool is blended with safe polymer fibres
to assist with loft maintenance.
The
lasting ability of wool should be equal to many life
times and currently is permantly treated with safe natural
mineral salt solutions against its known predators.
Wool is also a very efficient absorber of indoor air
pollutants which can reduce the effects of "sick
building syndrome".
Due to wool's intricate structure it is able to breathe
and trap air, giving higher thermal and acoustic ratings
over other insulators. Reports show that treated wool
insulation is insect resistant, not subject to natural
deterioration, and in fire performance tests conducted
by Australian Standards (AS 1530.3), wool insulation
was found suitable for domestic use.
WOOL
INSULATION - NATURALLY SAFE
Natural salts and minerals have been added to the wool
to assist in fire retardancy, insect and vermin proof
and mildew resistant. Wool is the perfect solution in
areas where ceiling condensation is a problem.
