Hemp: a noble product Hemp is a material renowned for its types of insulation with the lowest C02 'It requires little water and no 'It absorbs a large quantity of C02 during its growth cycle. ' It makes good use of poor-quality 'It plays a productive role in crop rotation (biodiversity, soil production chain 'Compared to mineral wools, plant- base insulations require very little energy to manufacture, which helps ' Biofib' insulations are produce by a complete production process: -from crop growing in the Vendee region (near the manufacturing site) - to the production of batts or rolls (fibre extraction and overlaying at the same site, meaning less 'Biofib' insulations display a very positive carbon balance, helping to achieve "double" energy savings Biofib'duo is an innovative mixture of hemp and flax fibres, the combination of which produces reinforced insulation. Biofib'duo batts and semi-rigid rolls designed to provide "ecological" and "overall comfort" insulation for residences through high thermal efficiency. ^| A natural, ecological insulation product ^ that is healthy and non-irritant 'i^p Enhanced thermal comfort (Q) Batts "spring effect" = easy to install Moisture control The natural characteristics of the hemp mixture • Enhanced thermal efficiency • Natural moisture control • Long, very strong fibres that provide rigidity and proper mechanical resistance. • Does not attract rodents, contains no proteins (no occurrence of mites or termites) • Will not rot: does not degrade over time • A natural, renewable raw material Thicknesses / packagings French Technical Technical Specifications Thermal capacity Thermal conductivity by weight Thermal resistance Thermal transmission coefficient Water vapour diffusion resistance factor Water vapour transmission Airborne sound reduction Designed using a novel production process that gives them a lateral "spring effect" Biofib'duo insulation batts display: • Excellent mechanical resistance, which helps make them easy to install and contributes to their long-lasting efficiency • Easy to cut and install, even on irregular surface (especially in renovations): cut the insulation with an overlap of approximately 2 cm in order create a slight • Reduction of thermal bridges: the insulation "conforms" to the shape of the • High stability over time: no settling • Maintains shape and position once installed: no special fixings needed hemp fibres, 44 % flax fibres, synthetic binder And finally, its natural, non-toxic, non-irritant and soft-touch natural fibres require no special precautions during installation.
