Long ago, there were several insulation materials available: Rockwool, Vermiculite, Fiberglass, Cellulose, Mineral-Wool – all sorts of stuff. Over the years, we’ve seen many come and go that were found to be dangerous, ineffective, or impractical. Today, there are basically three choices: Fiberglass, Cellulose, and Rockwool. The confusing thing is that Fiberglass is available in two forms: rolled batting or blown loose-fill, and Cellulose is only available as a blown material, which often leads to misconceptions stemming from the comparison of blown-in Fiberglass and Cellulose. Luckily, we’ve broken down the qualities of each material below in a useful chart! For a more detailed breakdown, see our material pages!
