Wool fiberglass insulation comprises more than 70 percent of the residential 

insulation material used in the United States. The remaining percentage of the 

market consists of cellulose (scrap newspaper) treated to resist fires, spray

foam, foam boards, cotton treated to resist fires, and sheep wool treated to 

resist fires. Wool fiberglass insulation is preferred over these alternative 

insulation materials because it is easily, economically, and safety installed in 

various building settings, has superior fire performance capabilities, and a 70-

year history of proven performance and durability
