Environmental sustainability

By insulating better, you spend less

The condition of the environment has changed significantly in recent decades. Improving energy efficiency has become increasingly important in both construction and housing. Reducing energy consumption and addressing climate change are key challenges for society. Future building regulations are expected to place greater emphasis on energy performance and environmental efficiency. Energy costs may also continue to fluctuate in the years ahead.

By improving the thermal insulation of buildings, it is possible to reduce energy consumption and create cost savings over the building’s lifetime. Better insulation can also help reduce CO2 emissions associated with heating energy use. Energy efficiency is a long-term investment that benefits both building owners and the environment.

Termex Cellulose insulation – recycled paper fibres to thermal insulation material

Termex Cellulose Insulation is a thermal insulation material for modern construction made from recycled paper fibres. Reusing domestically sourced recycled paper as thermal insulation gives the material a new purpose and supports the efficient use of existing raw materials. The use of renewable and recycled raw materials in insulation production is becoming increasingly important as the construction sector seeks to improve resource efficiency. In addition to reliable thermal performance, choose insulation materials that make effective use of renewable and recycled resources.

Termex Cellulose Insulation is produced using recycled raw materials and renewable electricity.

All electricity used by Termex-Eriste Oy comes from renewable energy sources and is covered by certified Guarantees of Origin that verify its source. The use of renewable electricity is an important part of the company’s ongoing efforts to reduce the climate impact associated with production.

Insulation with Termex Cellulose Insulation is an energy-efficient choice

Wood is a renewable natural material that absorbs carbon dioxide from the atmosphere as it grows. The use of wood-based building materials, such as cellulose insulation, can help reduce the climate impact of construction by storing carbon and supporting lower greenhouse gas emissions over a building’s life cycle.

According to the EPD, Termex Cellulose Insulation stores more carbon dioxide than is generated during its production.
