:: ULTRATOUCH Frequently Asked Questions

Is UltraTouch made from recycled blue jeans?
UltraTouch is manufactured using post-industrial denim and cotton  fibers  that  we  source  from  denim
manufacturing facilities. UltraTouch contains over 85% recycled denim and cotton fibers.

Do I need protective clothing to install UltraTouch?
Absolutely not! UltraTouch does not itch, is easy to handle and requires no protective clothing to install.

Is UltraTouch Fire Resistant?
Yes, each natural fiber of UltraTouch is saturated with a natural fire retardant (borates) giving UltraTouch
insulation a Class-A fire rating.

Can UltraTouch be installed in contact with recessed lighting?
Yes, UltraTouch can be installed in contact with recessed lighting but the lighting MUST be  IC  Rated.  An
air gap of six inches would need to be left for non-insulated lighting cans.

What happens when UltraTouch gets wet?
UltraTouch is manufactured to breathe or accept and release the moisture it receives in a timely  manner.
UltraTouch also contains active mold inhibitors as well.

Will mold and pests affect UltraTouch?

Does UltraTouch contain formaldehyde?
No, UltraTouch does not contain any formaldehyde or harmful irritants.

Does UltraTouch have a vapor barrier?
No, UltraTouch is manufactured in batt form and is unfaced. If  your  local building code requires  the use
of a vapor barrier, we recommend a poly sheeting to be applied across the insulated surface.

What is the best way to cut UltraTouch?
We have found the simplest way to cut UltraTouch is to use the Insul-Knife. It can save hours on a job.

Is UltraTouch considered a “Green Building” material?
