Floor
An overview of all insulation materials collected from floor applications and tested within the Start 2 Reuse Insulation project. Insulation from floors proved relatively hard to find and is often less easy to dismantle selectively, especially when it is part of a solid floor build-up. About 6% of the cases studied came from a floor application.
