Loose fill cotton is by far a better material then the earlier used paper material that was popular in the late 90s. This material tends to blow out of the roof space due to natural air drafts. This in addition to respiratory problems that can be caused by cellulose make cotton a better material to use.

A natural fiber that is gaining popularity for being used as insulation is cotton. Cotton fibers resulting from post industrial waste found at blue jean factories are bound together and formed into batts for installation in stud cavities, floor frames and in ceilings. This simple yet effective insulation provides many advantages to homeowners and the environment.
