Commercial Construction
Each building contruction is different, and to give you the best
quality product that fits your needs and budget, Evergreen Insulation
offers customized insulation packages including: spray foam, spray cellulose made of recycled paper products and fiberglass insulation.
Why should I use energy-efficient insulation in my construction?
You’re in the business of building quality, high performing structures.
So are we. We can help you build better by providing insulation options
that make structures energy efficient, healthy and safe.
Why should I work with Evergreen Insulation?
We are building a strong reputation in Southwest Virginia as the
leading provider of green insulation solutions. We are looking for
building partners who share our vision for building sites that are
energy-efficient and save money over the life of the building.
How can you help me with LEED certification credits?
Evergreen Insulation recognizes that an effective insulation system
keeps a building efficient, comfortable, healthy and safe - all of
which are requirements for LEED certification credits. The following
explains how Evergreen Insulation products can be used for building green and obtaining LEED credits:
Energy and Atmosphere:
AirTight SprayFoam® insulation provides insulation and air sealant
properties to wrap a structure and facilitate the design of an
efficient system. This seal also allows for smaller HVAC systems with
the required ventilation.
Installing Advanced Fiber Technology (AFT) cellulose insulation uses 1/5 the amount of energy needed to install traditional insulation.
Materials and Resources:
AirTight SprayFoam® does not emit volatile organic compounds (VOC's) and utilizes a zero ozone depleting blowing agent technology.
AFT cellulose insulation is made from 75%-85% recycled paper
products and Knauf batts and blankets are also made from recycled
materials.
Evergreen Insulation installs each insulation type with minimal waste,
which can contribute to projects reaching the target of 50% to 75%
diverted waste from landfills.
Indoor Environmental Quality:
AirTight SprayFoam® has an R-value of 6.5 per inch. This allows for higher insulation values in typical 2 x 4 framing cavities.
AirTight SprayFoam® and AFT cellulose insulation create an
air-tight seal to guard against air infiltration and energy loss.
Knauf Insulation and AirTight® Insulation are both GREENGUARD certified for providing improved air quality.
Innovation and Design Process:
AirTight SprayFoam® and AFT cellulose insulation can be
installed easily in areas that are often difficult with conventional
insulation (for new construction and retrofit).
