Ecological insulation with wood fiber or thermal hemp
As an alternative to the rock wool we usually offer, you can also insulate your new log home completely ecologically – with wood fiber or thermal hemp. These two insulation materials create a high level of sustainability to match the timber house and significantly improve the ecological footprint. These two natural insulation materials are characterized by high thermal insulation, environmental compatibility, durability and recyclability.
Particularly in the case of larger vacation homes and residential buildings, it is possible to insulate effectively in a way that is absolutely harmless to health and also has a positive influence on future generations.
Wood fiber insulation:
Wood fiber insulation is a sustainable and environmentally friendly insulation option that is particularly popular for log cabins.
When insulating the roof, wood fiber insulation provides excellent thermal performance, helping to keep the house warm in winter and cool in summer. It can absorb and release moisture, which reduces the risk of condensation and mold growth. In addition, wood fiber insulation boards are robust and can withstand the extreme weather conditions on a roof. They also provide good sound insulation, which is particularly useful if the house is located in a noisy environment.
For the walls, the wood fiber insulation allows the walls to "breathe", which improves the air quality inside and avoids moisture problems. It offers natural protection against pests and insects and is environmentally friendly and sustainable as it is made from wood, a renewable raw material. It can also adapt to different wall structures and provides uniform insulation.
In the floor area, good insulation helps to reduce heat loss and lower energy consumption. Wood fiber insulation in the floor can dampen the sound of footsteps or other noises, which contributes to a quieter living atmosphere. An insulated floor also feels warmer and more comfortable on the feet and can withstand the stresses and strains of a floor, keeping it effective for years to come.

Thermal hemp:
Thermal hemp insulation in a log house offers a number of advantages that have a positive effect on the overall well-being and energy efficiency of the house. Using thermal hemp for the roof, walls and floor keeps the house warm in the cold months and cool in the warm months. This is due to the high thermal insulation capacity of the material. Thermohemp is also breathable, which helps moisture to escape from inside the house, reducing the risk of mold growth.
In addition, thermal hemp is a sustainable and environmentally friendly material. It requires little water during its growth and binds CO2 during its lifetime, which helps to reduce the greenhouse effect. This makes it an excellent choice for environmentally conscious homeowners.
The acoustic properties of thermal hemp are also remarkable. It serves as sound insulation and reduces unwanted outside noise, resulting in a quieter and more pleasant living atmosphere.
In addition to heat and sound insulation, thermal hemp also offers a certain degree of fire protection. It is flame retardant and can help to slow down the spread of fire in a house.
Overall, the use of thermal hemp insulation in a log home helps to create a healthy, comfortable and energy-efficient living environment while minimizing the environmental impact.
