About Second Nature UK

Based near Penrith in Cumbria, Second Nature UK began in 2001 with the launch of Thermafleece. The first sheepswool insulation to be manufactured in the UK using wool from British hill sheep. In 2002 Thermafleece gained British Board of Agrément (BBA) approval for use in loft, sarking and timber frame wall applications. To celebrate this fundamental step for Thermafleece, the company hosted a reception at The House of Commons, with Guest Speaker, the Writer and Broadcaster, Chris Baines.
