batting green

Johns Manville fiberglass batt insulation is one of Wilson’s favorites because it’s composed of recycled materials and contains no formaldehyde. Instead, the product uses an acrylic binder that doesn’t off-gas. It’s “better for the air,” Wilson says. Its environmental impact is also lessened because it uses fewer “virgin materials,” he adds.
