Greenfiber/Cocoon
Separate Yourself from the Jones':
A. Attics
- Cocoon, with a 3.7 R-Value per inch, offers more R-value per inch than fiberglass.
- With most heat loss (30%) through the ceiling, Cocoon creates a seamless blanket of thermal protection.
B. Walls
- Achieve full R-value by filling around wiring, plumbing and electrical boxes.
- Applies easily to odd framing dimensions and non-uniform stud spacing.
C. Attics and Walls
- Offers 36% less air infiltration in homes when compared to traditional insulation.
- Promotes durability and energy efficiency.
Lower Energy Consumption:
- Slows down air infiltration better than the other insulation materials due to its density.
- Keeps the conditioned air in your living space longer than other types of insulations, requiring significantly less energy to heat and cool.
- In a time of rising utility costs, Cocoon offers energy savings month after month.
- Cocoon reduces energy consumption by 32% with cellulose in walls when compared to fiberglass batts. (Leominster Study)
- Provides greater R-value consistency through extreme temperature ranges.
- Manufacturing facilities use far less energy to produce Cocoon than other insulation manufacturing processes.
Superior Fire Protection:
- Has permanent and proven fire resistance providing added safety.
- Outperforms fiberglass with 57% better fire resistance.
- A Cocoon-insulated building will stand longer before collapsing than either a non-insulated or fiberglass-insulated building.
- Cocoon is an alternative to fire blocking (ICC ER #2833)
Superior Sound Control:
- Where air flows, sound follows. Cocoon cuts down on air infiltration and sound transmission.
- Cocoon has a higher STC rating than similar home insulating systems and delivers seven times more air flow resistance than fiberglass.
Superior Builder Value:
- Reduces callbacks.
- A major component contributing to right-sizing HVAC equipment (lower tonnage).
