INSULATING a Tiny House with Expanded CORK CLADDING

Insulating a tiny house is a complicated affair. There are so many options! From internal insulation to external insulation, there are many ways to keep a tiny house warm in winter and cool in summer. And we’ve decided to go for a cork house!

We chose to go for double insulation for our tiny house build, using expanded natural cork to clad the outside of the building, and rockwool insulation on the inside.

Watch our step by step cork insulation installation process, as we apply expanded cork panels to the exterior walls of our cabin in the mountains. This expanded cork cladding is chemical free, naturally anti-fungal, anti-fire and hydrophobic too. And we think it looks great!

About Us:
We're Danny and Kate. In 2015 we moved from the UK to Barcelona, and after a few years enjoying the busy city, sunny beaches and snow-capped mountains it's time for a new adventure. We've recently bought land in Spain, in the mountains of Catalunya, to build a mortgage free tiny house and start a self-sustainable off-grid homestead to live off the land.
