Warmshell doesn't just save carbon in use...
It is also fundamentally more sustainable and safer to make and dispose of. By building a system designed to manage moisture using the inherent advantages of natural materials, we avoid the need for toxic chemicals or additives which have high embodied energy.
Our Solo EPD also contains a scenario with the full Warmshell System - the only UK woodfibre system with a verified environmental product declaration data. It shows that Warmshell locks up carbon from day 1, whereas most insulation schemes lead to a spike in carbon now, in the hope of saving it in the future.
Warmshell Internal EPD scenario

Each pallet of Warmshell Woodfibre locks up over 400kg of CO2 e.q. during its life, even when taking into account the energy used to make it and ignoring the energy it will save you in use. Compare that to aluminium foil-faced insulation, where the same volume can release around 1300kg during manufacture!
Installing 1m2 of Warmshell internal can lock up around 4kg of carbon from the day it is installed, even after taking into account factory emissions, the plaster manufacture and transport.
