As part of the WoTIM project (Wood-based Thermal Insulation
Materials), VTT Technical Research Centre of Finland is developing wood
fibre-based insulation materials and sprayable insulation foams with enhanced
product features. The new materials will enable mass production of high-quality
insulation products, which will replace products made of non-renewable or
poorly recyclable raw materials. Use of wood-based material will lower energy
consumption at the production stage, as well as reducing the products' carbon
footprint.
