Without the use of CFCs or HCFCs, Knauf Loft Roll is favourable for the environment because it does not have the capacity to deplete the ozone layer and has little to no ability to contribute to global warming. Since Earth Wool insulation can trap heat, it reduces the amount of energy needed to keep a structure warm. It also aids in reducing the building’s carbon footprint.

Furthermore, the notion that this binder contains no extra phenol or formaldehyde suggests that the lower dust levels are far less frequent. Knauf 150mm Loft Roll’s primary basic material is sustainable and renewable.
