Testimonials

"During heat waves, the house feels much cooler. It's like having air conditioning. When it's 95°F outside, it's only 75°F inside."
Mr. and Mrs. Brard (85)
"I noticed the difference this winter; we turned the thermostat down by 1 or 2 degrees. The heat is distributed throughout the house, and there are fewer temperature variations between rooms. I no longer have condensation on the ceiling in my bathroom."
Mr. and Mrs. Piveteau (85)
"I have many customers who tell me that they save around 30% on their energy bills by renovating their unused attic space with cellulose insulation."
Jean-Luc MarchaisHead of the insulation division CG Plâtrerie (53)
"We immediately felt acoustically comfortable, as if in a cocoon, as soon as the cellulose insulation installed in our attic."
Mr. and Mrs. Mintoff (33)
