Wood Fiber Insulation: The Future of Home Insulation in Minnesota

TimberFill Insulation: Setting a New Standard in Minneapolis & St. Paul

With climate consciousness on the rise, homeowners are more invested than ever in eco-friendly and sustainable home solutions. Gone are the days when attic insulation was merely a choice between cellulose, rockwool, or fiberglass. Wood fiber insulation emerges as the all-natural contender, revolutionizing home builds and attic retrofits in Minneapolis and St. Paul.

And Cloud9 Insulation is proud to be the very first company in Minnesota to install TimberFill into residential properties.

Four Pillars of TimberFill Insulation:

  1. High-Performance: When comparing the different types of blown-in attic insulation currently on the market to our new wood-fiber insulation, its impressive 3.8/inch R-Value speaks for itself.

  2. From Nature, For Homes: Crafted from pure softwood chips from sustainable American forests, TimberFill reimagines byproducts from the lumber industry. Pioneered in Europe, it now finds its roots in Minnesotan homes, seamlessly embracing our culture of innovation, responsibility, and respect for our natural resources.

  3. Built on Trust: Safety isn’t just a buzzword; it’s a commitment. Enhanced with borate—a trusted ally in insulation for decades—TimberFill gives added to protection of homes from fires, molds, and insects.

  4. Designed for Diversity: The unpredictable Minnesota weather demands nothing short of perfection. TimberFill, with its stellar track record, offers unparalleled temperature and humidity regulation.

  5. The Green Promise: Renewable, non-toxic, and arriving at job sites as a carbon-negative marvel, TimberFill isn’t just insulation—it’s a testament to a sustainable future.

For those pondering a home makeover or embarking on a fresh build journey in the Twin Cities, TimberFill stands as a shield, ensuring warmth, safety, and sustainability.

Carbon-Sequestering Insulation is Important for Several Reasons:

  1. Combating Climate Change: The primary benefit of carbon sequestration is its role in reducing greenhouse gas levels in the atmosphere. By capturing and storing carbon, carbon-sequestering insulation helps to mitigate the impacts of climate change.

  2. Energy Efficiency: While traditional insulations reduce the energy needs of a building (thereby indirectly reducing carbon emissions from energy production), carbon-sequestering insulation goes a step further. Not only does it provide energy efficiency, but it actively captures and locks away carbon, doubling its environmental benefits.

  3. Sustainable Building: As we move towards a more sustainable future, green building practices are becoming more standard. Carbon-sequestering insulation aligns with these practices by providing an eco-friendly insulation option.

  4. Resource Efficiency: Many carbon-sequestering insulation materials are made from renewable resources, such as plant fibers, that naturally absorb carbon dioxide as they grow. Using these materials, rather than finite, energy intensive resources, is much more sustainable in the long run.

In a world where climate change poses significant threats, every step taken towards sustainability matters. Carbon-sequestering insulation represents one such step in the realm of construction and building design, providing both functional and environmental benefits.
