MOISTURE & MOLD


Airflow accounts for 98% of moisture movement. Since fiberglass is not an air barrier it provides no protection against moisture and mold. Cellulose is so effective at blocking airflow and managing moisture that you don't need a poly vapor barrier.

While the air-blocking capability of high-density cellulose insulation prevents moisture flow, the borates in our specially treated NuWool Wallseal cellulose insulation inhibits mold and fungus growth from any condensation. Our cellulose insulation wicks moisture away from the surrounding building components and carries it to drier areas.
