Natural Wool Insulation: 50 Year Warranty

PURE WOOL INSULATION by Wool.Life comes with a 50 Year Warranty.  Because of its unique manufacturing technology, its thermal and acoustic properties never lessen.  The use of wool as an insulator goes back thousands of years and is still significant in the health and wellness sector worldwide

Wool.Life Pure Wool Insulation maintains its resiliency due to its high bulk and elasticity. Resiliency is one of the main contributing factors to maintaining thermal efficiency over time. Because of the way that our knops (wool balls) are combed, our insulation does not compress or pack down like competing products, which experience R-value loss due to slumping. Our pure wool insulation is guaranteed to retain its thermal value for 50 years.

Wool.Life’s loose fill wool insulation is a blend of sheep’s wool and lambswool. Because of their youth, the core of the lamb’s wool fiber has yet to fill in. This hollow core creates more airspace, thereby providing a higher resistance to heat flow or insulation value.

Our manufacturing process carefully combs the wool into air capturing balls, which gives the elasticity necessary for our insulation to resist compression and packing. Contrary to other insulations which slump over time, Wool Life’s Natural Wool Insulation actually expands, guaranteeing that our loose fill wool insulation will retain or increase its thermal value as time goes on.

The Parliament in the UK Remodeled with Wool Insulation

Leeds University was commissioned to evaluate insulation options for the British Houses of Parliament. They concluded that insulating with wool provided the most benefits, not only for thermal insulation but also to reduce the opportunity of damage for the ancient building. No other form of insulation could meet the same level of requirement. On opening the area to be insulated it was found that wool had originally been used some 150 years ago. It was still in excellent condition.
