How Does Havelock Wool Improve Air Quality?
As the quality of building materials decline an increasing amount of chemicals and glues are used to reduce costs to attract consumer’s attention. These chemicals and glues are the major source of harmful substances like formaldehyde, So2 and NoX. As more homes are built to be airtight, the indoor air quality becomes compromised (see harvard study summary) and inhabitants face poor air quality challenges. Havelock Wool contains no harmful chemicals and the composition of the wool fiber acts as an air filter permanently abating these chemicals thru a complex structure of amino acids. Havelock Wool will block the movement of such pollutants as they try to migrate around the home. See
