UltraTouch Recycled Denim Insulation

High-Performance Insulation With the Natural Benefits of Cotton Fiber

Unleash the Power of Denim
UltraTouch Recycled Denim Insulation is a high-performance insulation made from natural cotton fiber. Installing UltraTouch is a cost-effective way to improve energy efficiency and comfort in your home.

Thermal Performance
The unique construction of UltraTouch creates thousands of tiny air pockets that maintain strong thermal protection, even with extreme temperature changes. Enjoy a comfortable, energy-efficient home with insulation that reduces heat transfer and dampens sound transmission.


No Itchy Fibers
With no fiberglass or chemical irritants, UltraTouch is safe to handle and install without the need for protective clothing or special respiratory equipment.


Easy Installation
Suitable for residential use, UltraTouch can be installed in the same places as fiberglass or mineral wool batts–between open roof rafters, ceiling joists, and wall studs. It installs easily in wood framing cavities with a simple friction fit.


Fire, Mold & Mildew Resistant
UltraTouch is Class A fire-rated and treated with a borate solution that acts as a flame retardant and prevents the growth of fungi and bacteria.


Reduce Environmental Impact
UltraTouch includes 80% post-consumer authentic cotton denim. Each year, more than 20 million pounds of denim are diverted from landfills and repurposed into UltraTouch insulation.

How It's Made

  • After old denim is no longer used, it is sent to a recycling facility.
  • Zippers and buttons are removed.
  • Mechanical shredders grind up the denim into small pieces.
  • It’s shredded until the denim transforms into a fibrous state.
  • Cotton fibers are pressed into large mats.
  • Large mats are cut to fit into wall or floor cavities.

Reducing Environmental Impact

  • Made with 80% post-consumer denim
  • Diverts 20 million pounds of denim from landfills annually
  • Recycles 5 tons of zipper fragments each month
  • More than 500,000 pairs of jeans are repurposed monthly
