Cellulose fibre based
Main article: cellulose insulation
Cellulose insulation is mostly made up of recycled paper fiber (usually newspaper)[1] meaning cellulose based insulation has the highest content of recycled material compared to other commercially available insulation materials. The non-recycled materials of cellulose insulation are still preferable to the components of other (for example foam-based) insulation.[2]
