Ever think about what it feels like to live comfortably in a quiet home that also helps contribute to a healthier planet? From Greenfiber comes SANCTUARY® insulation, a revolutionary product combining high performance and environmental responsibility.

The Future of Home Insulation

SANCTUARY insulation, Greenfiber’s flagship product, isn’t your typical insulation. It’s made from 85% recycled paper, turning post-consumer paper into attic and wall insulation. By using these materials, Greenfiber keeps 277,000 tons of paper out of landfills every year. SANCTUARY is designed to make your home a safe, quiet and comfortable place to put your feet up.

How SANCTUARY Insulation Works

Greenfiber didn’t just create another building material. They designed a smart solution to make your home more efficient and sustainable. At its core, it’s made from cellulose, a material mostly created from recycled paper. The process begins by collecting waste that would otherwise end up in landfills. It’s then turned into the dense, high-performance insulation.

What makes SANCTUARY special is its ability to fill gaps, voids and hard-to-reach places in your home, whether it’s your attic or your walls. The insulation forms a tight seal that keeps temperatures steady and your room (or entire home) quiet. The installation is easy and perfect for both builders and DIYers.

The Difference SANCTUARY Makes

SANCTUARY insulation rates are on par with traditional fiberglass and wool insulation materials. Here are some of its other features:

  • It’s versatile. DIYers and contractors alike can easily loose-fill it. Or builders can spray-apply or dense-pack it into walls. SANCTUARY can even be installed over existing insulation to be more effective with little fuss.
  • It’s proven to reduce 60% of sound when installed in exterior and interior walls. Planes overhead, kids running upstairs or music blasting, SANCTUARY insulation keeps chaos quiet.
  • It can help reduce allergies. Homes that are insulated using SANCTUARY have better controlled airflow and less pathways for allergens, odors and pollutants.
  • It helps save energy. Upgrading your insulation to SANCTUARY can reduce your heating and cooling costs by up to 15%, so you save money while staying comfy all year-round.

Comfort that Helps the Planet

Using SANCTUARY insulation isn’t just smart for your home – it’s a thoughtful choice for the environment. When you improve your home’s energy efficiency, it helps to lower your costs while reducing your impact on the environment.

Greenfiber’s commitment to sustainability shows through every step of their process. From energy-efficient manufacturing plants to shorter delivery routes, they look for ways to minimize emissions and reduce waste. It’s all part of the team’s mission to make our planet a little happier, a little cleaner and a little more comfortable, every single day.

The #1 Goal? To Make Your Home a SANCTUARY

For some, it’s hard to imagine that insulation could make that big of a difference. But every choice a builder or homeowner makes for their home matters. With SANCTUARY, you get both comfort and conservation. Whether you’re a DIYer or a Pro, you can create a home that’s more comfortable, quieter and more sustainable for everybody.
