Looking for a central resource for insulation? We would like to make the AIA Community aware of the newly launched Insulation Institute, a new resource for builders, architects and code officials to be able to quickly find factual knowledge about fiberglass and mineral wool insulation — which accounts for insulation in nearly 90% of U.S. homes.

Insulation Institute was created by NAIMA (North American Insulation Manufacturers Association) as a central gathering place for all building products professionals and users.
