Pretty Nifty Insulation

So we got the Ultratouch in the space today and the guys started putting it in the walls, with their bare hands! It’s pretty cool stuff, made from recycled denim (from jeans factories). It has better insulating properties than fiberglass and rockwool, safer to handle, and just generally safer to be around.

Some of our acoustic materials were lost in shipping and they’re scrambling to get them to us in time. They’ve lost the ceiling spring hangers and the mass-loaded vinyl. We need the vinyl tomorrow so they can start putting it up over the first layer of drywall, and then hang the second layer. If we don’t get that stuff soon, we’re going to have to stop work for a couple of days (GRRRRR). They tell me it should be here by Wednesday, we’ll see…
