The Eden Insul
ation factory in Appleby is one of very few compan

ngs using pre-fabricated timber frames.
\n On
this visit to their factory\, you’ll learn how th
e highly skilled team make insulated\, airtight pa
nels\, which they then erect on site. It usually t
akes just a few days for them to erect the buildin
g’s frame\, ready for roofing and external claddin
g.
\n The buildings they construct are highly
insulated with cellulose (recycled newsprint) and
sealed for airtightness. Some of their buildings
have gained the stringent Passivhaus certification
for energy efficiency\, including one here in Cum
bria\, which gained the second highest level of ai
rtightness ever recorded in the UK at the time. Yo
u can book separately to visit this home after the
factory tour (see below for more details).
\
n You’ll also learn about the high-quality\, susta
