Loft Roll 44 is designed to be DIY-friendly. Its combi-cut format makes it easy to fit between joists without extra cutting. Just remember to wear gloves and a mask for comfort and safety.
2. What makes ECOSE® Technology better than traditional insulation binders?
ECOSE® Technology uses a natural, formaldehyde-free binder made from rapidly renewable materials. It produces less dust, has a softer feel, and improves indoor air quality — all while offering strong performance and durability.
3. Is 200mm insulation enough for building regulations?
Generally, 270mm total depth is recommended to meet current **Part L** UK building regulations for loft insulation. You can achieve this by layering, for example: 100mm between joists and 170mm across joists.
