Environmentally sustainable insulation by Fletcher Insulation

The combination of two of Australia's major players in the insulation market - Insulation Solutions and Tasman Insulation Australia (also trading as Fletcher Insulation) has, for a while, caused some speculation about what would happen to the product mix and the long established brands of Pink Batts and Fletcher Insulation Fat Batts.

It has now been announced that Insulation Solutions and Tasman Insulation Australia will be trading as Fletcher Insulation, a division of Fletcher Building from 1st November 2005.

Our industry has enormous potential as we see greater demands for energy efficiency and the requirement for building design to achieve superior sustainability credentials. Fletcher Insulation has the experience, market knowledge and product range to meet our customers needs, whether they come from the Insulation Solutions or Fletcher Insulation side of the business.

Fletcher Insulation becomes the only insulation manufacturer in the world to manufacture and market the leading types of insulation in glasswool, polyester and reflective foil insulation products.

Fletcher Insulation will build on the quality and innovation established by Insulation Solutions and Tasman Insulation Australia and plans to be the driving force behind the future of insulation development in Australasia.

The domestic insulation market will continue to have the choice between Pink Batts and Fat Batt brands and competition between these brands will remain in place.
