What is EcoLoft Non-Itch Wool Insulation?

This insulation represents a significant leap forward in insulation technology. Unlike traditional fibreglass or mineral wool insulation, which can cause skin irritation and respiratory issues, non-itch insulation is designed to be safe and comfortable to handle. This innovative product is typically made from recycled materials making it an environmentally conscious choice for homeowners looking to reduce their carbon footprint.

The non-itch property of this insulation is not just a matter of comfort during installation; it also means that there are no harmful fibres that can become airborne over time, ensuring long-term safety for inhabitants. This type of insulation maintains its effectiveness throughout the lifetime of the building, unlike some traditional materials that may settle or degrade over time.

The Science behind EcoLoft Non-Itch

The secret to non-itch insulation lies in its unique manufacturing process. Instead of using loose fibres that can easily become airborne, EcoLoft Non-Itch insulation is created using a method that binds the fibres together. This results in a stable, cohesive material that doesn’t release irritating particles into the air.

The binding process not only eliminates the itch factor but also contributes to the insulation’s durability and longevity. The tightly bound fibres resist compression and maintain their shape, ensuring consistent insulation performance over many years.

EcoLoft Non-Itch R-values

The R-value is a measurement of thermal resistance, indicating how well a material insulates. For EcoLoft Non-Itch Insulation at 100mm thickness, the R-value is around 2.5m²K/W. This means it provides effective resistance to heat flow, helping to keep homes warm in winter and cool in summer.
