Beyond R-Value: Wood Fiber Insulation in Multifamily Construction

Beyond R-Value: Wood Fiber Insulation in Multifamily Construction

Join us for the next session of Beyond R-Value, where we dive into the role of wood fiber insulation in multifamily construction. Often associated with single-family homes, TimberHP products, TimberFill, and TimberBatt are also a smart choice for commercial and multifamily buildings. This expert-led discussion will explore the thermal and acoustic performance benefits of wood fiber, as well as real-world insights from projects using TimberHP products. Hear from industry leaders at Avesta Housing and Kaplan Thompson Architects as they share perspectives from the field and discuss the why, how, and what’s next of incorporating wood fiber insulation at scale.
