Ensuring quality control and safety in insulation installation
Enabling insulation to deliver comfortable, healthy buildings to Australians
On 10 February 2021, the Energy Efficiency Council and the Australian Sustainable Built Environment Council (ASBEC) launched a research report on quality control and safety in the installation of insulation in Australian buildings.
Insulation Australasia, the Insulation Council of Australia and New Zealand (ICANZ), the Government of New South Wales and the Government of Victoria commissioned the Energy Efficiency Council and ASBEC to engage with experts around Australia, in order to identify options to ensure that insulation is installed in Australia in a manner that is safe and delivers quality outcomes.
This research report was only possible with considerable input from experts in a broad range of fields, including policy makers, insulation manufacturers, insulation installers, the construction industry and experts in building design and sustainability.
