Thermafleece UltraWool - High Density Sheep's Wool Insulation Slab
Product Description
Incredibly efficient, highly breathable and very eco-friendly, the Thermafleece UltraWool is a premium quality insulation, made in the UK using British sheep’s wool. Intelligently blended with recycled fibres, this natural wool insulation delivers a significantly enhanced execution rate in comparison to those with a higher level of wool. The perfectly balanced combination provides superior sustainability, durability and thermal performance with thermal conductivity levels of 0.035 W/mK. This makes Thermafleece UltraWool one of the best performing natural fibre-based insulation products available to buy.
Perfect for easy installation in roofs, walls and floors, Thermafleece UltraWool can be effectively utilised all over the home. It has a density of 31 kg/m3, guaranteeing outstanding rates of acoustic insulation, plus helps to create a healthier internal home environment by carefully regulating moisture content and absorbing harmful airborne substances. In terms of longevity, Thermafleece UltraWool is very long-lasting and reliable incorporating a specialist lofting agent to maintain fibre stability and robust structural integrity.
With the ability to reduce CO2 emissions by many tonnes across its entire lifespan, this highly impressive insulation is perfect for those looking to build a more environmentally conscious home. Wool helps to fix carbon dioxide, reducing the level of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere. Within the home, Thermafleece Ultrawool will significantly lessen the energy levels that are lost from the building which in turn minimises energy consumption and saves you money on your bills. The insulation itself is very safe to handle and is so safe in fact, that it can even be recycled and reused at the end of its lifespan.

Common Questions about the Thermafleece UltraWool
Where Can I Install This Insulation?
The Thermafleece UltraWool insulation can be installed in a variety of applications including:
- Roofs – Lofts & warm roof
- Walls – Timber frame & Solid wall
- Floors – Suspended ground floor & between floor
How Do I Install This insulation?
To begin the installation process, the Thermafleece Ultrawool can be easily torn apart or cut using the ‘Roll and Cut’ for a more accurate edge. For this, the insulation is rolled as tightly as possible along the length, measured then cut using an insulation saw or knife. This is then repeated for the width, ensuring the insulation is rolled as tightly as possible for both.
You could also cut by compressing the insulation tightly between two pieces of solid 15mm board. This involves overhanging the fleece where you want to cut, saw cutting the edge using a scalloped edge knife and then trimming remaining fibres with large scissors or shears.
For full installation information and advice, please reference the manufacturer’s guide.
