What is this product?
EcoBatt Insulation's natural brown color comes from ECOSE Technology, a revolutionary, new more sustainable binder technology born from five years of intensive research and development.
* It is made from rapidly renewable bio-based materials rather than non-renewable petroleum-based chemicals such as phenol, formaldehyde and acrylics commonly used in traditional fiberglass insulation products.
* By reducing the binder embodied energy up to 70% compared to our traditional fiberglass insulation binder, ECOSE Technology reduces both the expected Global Warming Potential and total embodied energy of EcoBatt Insulation by approximately 4%.
