Keep running across this type of insulation from time to time.

It's white and looks like sheared wool.

There are little white bits like rice in it.

I assume its mineral wool.

Please let me know and wht the ''R'' value of this is if anyone knows.

Trying to make sure my charts are correct.


Cheers
