Avesta featured in case study on Maine-made, eco-friendly insulation

Avesta Housing is featured in a new case study by Maine-based TimberHP, the leading U.S. manufacturer of wood fiber insulation. Made from residual wood chips produced by lumberyards, the high-performance insulation promotes sustainable building practices while improving energy efficiency and providing comfortable living conditions for residents.

Avesta was one of the first housing developers to contract with TimberHP, and we have used its products in the development of new affordable homes in Gray, Farmington, Lewiston, and Westbrook. Reports Avesta Director of Construction Services Todd Rothstein in the case study: “I wanted to commit Avesta to TimberHP because clean insulation was something we could do and a Maine-based company seemed like a no-brainer for us. Health and safety is important to our residents.”
