Introductory Statistics on EU Energy Consumption

- On average almost 60% of energy used in our homes is for space heating. For all other buildings the average is almost 55%

Key Points
- The combination of crimped wool fibres and our production process, means that Sheep Wool Insulation is the highest performing fibrous insulation available
- Natural wool fibres are safe to touch and to live with. As such, there is no concern for the health of the installer or the occupants of the building
- Wool is a hygroscopic material, which means it can “breathe”. This breathing effect is very desirable in construction as it helps to regulate the moisture balance within a building. Unlike many other materials, the insulation performance of wool does not deteriorate in moist climates
- Wool is a versatile and flexible fibre, meaning it can be used in a number of applications right throughout a building. These include insulating attics, roofs, walls and floors, for heat and sound and also insulating pipes, ducting and water tanks
