Thermal insulation NATUFLEX

High performance natural insulation Black Mountain Natuflex is a high performance plant and wood fibre insulation and a natural solution to insulating traditional, new build and Passive House properties. Its high thermal mass enables it to store thermal energy and flex the re-emission of energy back into the building; saving energy and reducing costs. A combination of natural fibres provides sufficient flexibility to simplify installation whilst maintaining enough rigidity to prevent slumping in vertical walls. In addition to external timber frame walls, Natuflex is ideally suited for pitched roofs, SIP panel construction, cold lofts and suspended timber floors. Natuflex provides a number of significant benefits which include: Excellent thermal insulation performance Cuts energy costs High thermal mass very high specific heat Thermal phase shifting passive heating Humidity control improved indoor air quality High vapour diffusion capability Durability and longevity Truly sustainable locally produced Quick, easy and low cost installation Safe handling no protective clothing required Thermal mass Thermal mass is a combination of density and specific heat capacity. Buildings with high thermal mass are able to temporarily store heat and release it when the air temperature declines. Natuflex will significantly increase the thermal mass of a standard timber frame design or pitched roof where it would have originally been recorded as low.
