Wool insulation in favour

-

Government landlord Pamu, also known as Landcorp, is committing to insulating all its South Island rentals with recycled wool. The state-owned farming group has more than 500 homes spread around the country to house its workers and their families. Chief executive Steve Carden says it is important all homes are insulated and they picked wool because of its minimal environmen­tal impact. It follows other environmen­tal steps by the State Owned Enterprise, including stopping the use of palm kernel extract and fencing waterways across all its farms.
