Ka Rū Ka Hā – Awaken the Energy 🌿🐑

We're at the Firth NZILA Wānanga at Majestic on Durham, Ōtautahi Christchurch, tomorrow and Friday (5–6 Nov), and we can't wait to catch up with landscape architects and engineers.

We're keen to talk about how wool can work with nature: natural solutions that don't just do the job but leave the whenua better than they found it.

Swing by the stand for a chance to win:
🧶 One of 3 wool throws from High Peak Station (big shout out to the team there!)
🌱 2 x Small rolls of DAGMAT® for your garden beds

Come connect with us, chat with us, challenge us, and most of all have a laugh with us. Bring your best wool stories and a bit of banter. See you there!

Wool Insulation - Installed to perfection! 🐏 🧐

Peter from Ethos Homes takes us through our R6.4 240mm Skillion Roof insulation going into an I-beam rafter structure. Our semi-rigid wool batts friction-fit snugly between the joists with no sagging or gaps!

Check out our I-beam fillets too. They fill the recess between the top and bottom flanges 😎

The Ethos team has gone further than most:
✔️ Fewer dwangs and nogs in the walls, so less thermal bridging
✔️ Notched nogging in the ceiling to keep the insulation continuous
✔️ Chosen wool that’s comfortable to handle, so no itch for their team and PPE

This kind of care and attention is where New Zealand homes should be heading. Great work, Peter and the Ethos Homes crew. 🐑🏡

7.5 tonnes of New Zealand Wool. One very happy brook. 🌿💧

July 2025: 15,000 m² of DAGMAT® laid across the freshly reshaped banks of Addington Brook in South Hagley Park.

September 2026: native riparian planting well on its way, and the brook looking amazing!

Addington Brook is one of the most polluted waterways in Christchurch, and its renewal will have multiple benefits, including improved biodiversity, increased stormwater drainage capacity, and enhanced landscaping and safety for park users.

Christchurch City Council's renewal of the brook set out to stabilise the banks, filter contaminants through native riparian planting, and create habitat for tuna (eels) and native fish. We're proud to have supplied the wool that held those banks together while the plants took hold.

What 7.5 tonnes of wool was doing in between:

🐑 Holding the soil in place: protecting the brook from sediment run-off while the banks were most exposed
🌱 Feeding the planting: as the wool breaks down, it releases nitrogen and other nutrients into the soil, giving young plants a natural boost
💧 Holding moisture: wool absorbs water and releases it slowly to the roots
♻️ Leaving nothing behind: no plastic netting and no synthetic residue

The Council expects the planting to take two to three years to fully establish, and it's already looking like this.

♻️ Stage 2: Turning offcuts back into fibre.

Once insulation offcuts are returned to our factory, they're carefully chopped and ragged back into a reusable fibre. This gives the material a new life instead of becoming landfill.

That recycled fibre is then blended with new New Zealand wool, recycled New Zealand wool, and our binding fibre before being transformed into high-performance insulation once again.

Less waste. More value. A truly circular approach to manufacturing.

♻️ Don't let your insulation offcuts go to landfill.

At Terra Lana, we're closing the loop by upcycling insulation offcuts into our Chatterblock acoustic insulation—giving valuable fibre a second life instead of creating waste.

If you're a builder, installer, or homeowner, get in touch. We can help arrange for your clean offcuts to be returned to us for recycling.

It's all part of our cradle-to-cradle approach to manufacturing and another step towards a more circular building industry.

Learn more on our website or contact us to arrange a collection.

🌲 Timber cabins, done right.
Loburn Sawmill builds timber cabins the way it should be done — with local timber, milled right there on-site. Even the cladding is cut and finished in-house.

To keep things warm and toasty through the colder months, they insulate with wool insulation from us here at Terralana — proud to be part of builds that value quality, sustainability, and craftsmanship at every step. 🐑

With options for both custom orders and off-the-shelf designs, there's a cabin for every need.

Design smarter. Build better.

Reduce unnecessary nogs and dwangs. Lower framing costs. Improve your wall's thermal performance.

Because Terra Lana wool insulation friction-fits securely between studs, there's no need to rely on extra nogs just to support the insulation. Fewer thermal bridges, more room for insulation, and a simpler build.

Less timber. Better performance. It's a no-brainer.
