Viridian is a home insulation specialist based in Ashford, Kent that focuses solely on insulation products and services. Our supervisors and senior installers are employed by us, which means we don't use external subcontractors, and are skilled to a high standard and approved by our system designers.

Our loft insulation products are soft, non-itch, non-combustible, with low levels of dust release, and are made of 80% recycled material, which means they do not contain any volatile chemicals. For cavity wall insulation, we use material that has excellent thermal performance. It is also water-repellent, rot-proof, non-combustible and non-toxic in the event of a fire, which makes it durable and reliable in all weather conditions.

Viridian has access to UK government grant schemes providing free or part-funded insulation for private homes, housing associations and local authorities.
