What Is TAP® Insulation?
TAP®—Thermal • Acoustical • Pest Control—combines cellulose insulation with borate minerals that act as a natural insecticide, effective for decades. Lab tests and real‑world attics confirm its R‑Value and STC rating meet or exceed fiberglass, giving you better thermal retention and noticeably quieter rooms.
How TAP® Insulation Works
When insects move through TAP® Insulation, microscopic borate particles cling to them. As they groom, they ingest the dust, which disrupts digestion and causes starvation. Protection is continuous and chemical‑free—ideal for eco‑conscious households.
