As an alternative to hemp as an insulating material, there is also wood fiber insulation. It is completely biological and has all the properties mentioned here - mold resistant, solvent-free for allergy sufferers, soundproof, and optimally protects against cold while especially providing much better protection against summer overheating. In combination with clay plaster or earthen plaster, this creates a healthy wall structure.
At the company Emoton, this combination was developed as an alternative to the installation level and is patent protected.
Clay plaster with a build-up thickness of about 55 mm has 2 main advantages: thermal mass and the absorption/release of (air) moisture. This improves thermal protection in summer and the dry air in winter.
If my clients not only had creative expansion wishes but also some money, I would recommend this to everyone. :)
