Impact Analysis
The benefit to Project Pants is that denim insulation will provide 30 years of life which is good for the earth.
Pros
Denim insulation is more expensive than fiberglass insulation
Denim insulation comes in dense mats so it's harder to cut than fiberglass insulation
It doesn't stretch as easily and does not have the same fluffy properties as fiberglass insulation
It can be pulled off hunks but it's not as easy as fiberglass insulation
You may not always count on it because it may be in limited quantities or by special order only
Or you may be required to order it in only large quantities only
Cons
It's soft and easy to handle and there is not really a need to suit up as you would with fiberglass insulation
Denim insulation can be handled with bare hands
Denim insulation is better for respiration
Denim insulation is 100-percent post-consumer recycled material, all materials were previously used
Denim insulation uses recycled materials and can be recycled itself, (post-use)
It's about 30% more efficient at reducing noise than other insulation materials
