Wesselink’s biobased insulation is net CO₂-negative. The baseline measurement by New Economy (2021) shows the saving is almost twice the production impact. The material stores more carbon than it costs to make. The production impact of insulation material is often overlooked, leaving the net climate gain unknown.
A baseline measurement makes production, installation and use phase measurable and shows whether insulation is net CO₂-negative. This is relevant for insulation companies, construction firms and clients in the built environment. Source: Nulmeting Wesselink (2021).
