What is TimberBatt?
TimberBatt is a batt-style insulation made from renewable softwood fibers, offering a sustainable alternative to traditional insulation materials. Designed with the environment and performance in mind, TimberBatt is not only effective but also helps reduce the carbon footprint of buildings.
Key Features of TimberBatt
Superior Thermal Performance: TimberBatt provides excellent thermal resistance, helping to maintain consistent indoor temperatures. This high R-value insulation ensures that your home stays warm in the winter and cool in the summer, reducing the need for excessive heating and cooling.
Sound Insulation: One of the standout features of TimberBatt is its industry-leading acoustic performance. The dense wood fibers effectively dampen sound, creating quieter and more peaceful indoor environments. This is especially beneficial for urban homes or buildings near busy roads.
Moisture Management: TimberBatt is naturally hygroscopic and vapor-open, meaning it can absorb and release moisture without compromising its insulating properties. This helps prevent issues like mold growth and maintains healthy indoor air quality.
Fire Safety: Treated with borate, TimberBatt meets stringent fire safety standards, offering Class A fire resistance. This treatment also helps inhibit the growth of mold and mildew, further enhancing the durability of the insulation.
Sustainable and Renewable: TimberBatt is made from FSC-certified softwood chips, a byproduct of lumber production. By choosing TimberBatt, you’re not only opting for a high-performance insulation solution but also supporting sustainable forestry practices.
Non-Toxic and Safe: Unlike some insulation materials that contain harmful chemicals, TimberBatt is free from toxins, plastic contaminants, and abrasive fibers. It’s safe to handle, install, and live with, making it a healthy choice for your home or project.
