The tool for reusable insulation.
The digital tool is a decision tree that guides you through your situation in a few steps and generates a tailored report — with recommendations, a step-by-step plan and an overview of linked cases from the research.
From question to well-founded advice.
Reusing insulation always raises the same questions: can I remove this material intact, does it still perform well enough, and where can I reuse it? The tool translates those questions into a structured session.
Based on your answers, the tool brings together the relevant results from the Start 2 Reuse research in one clear report — tailored to your question, material and building element.
How the tool works.
