Havelock Wool and RIS Insulation Partner to Expand National Availability of High-Performance Natural Insulation

New partnership increases nationwide availability of natural insulation solutions designed to support healthier homes.

RENO, NV, UNITED STATES, April 6, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Havelock Wool, the pioneer in sheep’s wool insulation, is pleased to announce a strategic distribution partnership with RIS Insulation, a premier division of Foundation Building Materials (FBM). This relationship significantly expands the national footprint of Havelock’s natural wool products, providing builders, architects, and homeowners with streamlined access to the "healthy home" solutions they demand.

For more than a decade, Havelock Wool has led the evolution of the healthy home by championing wool as a biological engine for indoor environments. This partnership with RIS Insulation marks a pivotal shift in the brand’s mission to move beyond niche availability and into the mainstream construction market. By leveraging the vast logistics network of RIS and FBM, which now operates under the Lowe’s (NYSE: LOW) Total Home strategy, Havelock Wool is ensuring its products are readily available in key markets across the United States.

“Our goal has always been to make healthy building materials the standard, not the exception,” said Andrew Legge, CEO of Havelock Wool. “For 10 years, we’ve focused on the opportunity to combine health, sustainability and performance in the home. By partnering with an industry leader like RIS Insulation, we are removing the friction of geography. We want our customers to take full advantage of this easy access; whether you are building a sanctuary in Healdsburg or a high-performance home in Boston, Havelock Wool is now just a local delivery away.”

As consumer demand for non-toxic, moisture-regulating, and acoustically superior materials continues to surge, RIS Insulation has identified Havelock Wool as a critical addition to its high-performance product mix.

“We see a clear shift in the market toward materials that prioritize indoor air quality and sustainability,” said Rick Quimby, Procurement Manager at RIS / Foundation Building Materials. “Havelock Wool’s reputation for quality and its unique ability to manage moisture and VOCs makes it an ideal fit for our inventory. We are excited to facilitate this national expansion and provide our professional trade customers with the most advanced natural insulation on the market today.”

The partnership ensures that Havelock’s full suite of products, including R-14 and R-22 batts and loose-fill insulation, will be accessible through the RIS and FBM distribution network. This move complements Havelock’s existing direct-to-consumer and retail channels, solidifying its position as the leading wool insulation provider in North America.
