Eco Spray Foam of Long Island is proud to offer a variety of insulation types to our customers, specializing in high-performance, energy-saving solutions with the experience of our highly trained technicians to satisfy our customers’ needs for a healthier, quieter and more energy efficient indoor environment. One insulation we offer that meets many of these needs for customers is cellulose insulation.

Benefits of Cellulose Insulation

Cellulose insulation has begun to enter the insulation industry as a green, efficient, non-toxic, and affordable thermal alternative to fiberglass. It stands out for its environmentally friendly materials; cellulose insulation is made almost entirely of recycled materials, with up to 80% of its content derived from post-consumer recycled newsprint. These fibers are treated with non-toxic compounds that make them resistant to fire, insects, and mold. Insulating a 1500 square foot house with cellulose can recycle the equivalent of forty years worth of newspaper. If even half of all new homes built this year used cellulose as their main insulation material, it would remove 1.7 million tons of newspaper from our landfills. Cellulose insulation also requires less energy to produce; studies have found that it saves up to eight times the production energy that fiberglass insulation takes to manufacture.

Like fiberglass, cellulose insulation is mainly used for making buildings more thermally efficient by retaining and trapping heat or cold air, depending on the season. Cellulose insulation provides the same durability of energy efficiency as its cousin, fiberglass, and even has a slightly higher R-value, performing at high levels of energy efficiency for long periods of time. Besides being highly efficient and long-lasting, cellulose is also one of the most effective insulation options available. The wood fibers that make up the newsprint in cellulose are naturally air-resistant, allowing them to retain heat and prevent air escaping through typical heat flow processes.

Beyond efficiency and effectiveness, cellulose insulation presents many additional benefits for a homeowner, including water-resistance, flame-retardance, improved air quality, and countless environmental benefits, something that is always a priority for us at Eco Spray Foam Insulation.
