Fletcher Insulation is Australia's leading insulation company supplying our favourite insulation brands through well established distribution channels. Fletcher Insulation has a strong pedigree dating over half a century.
Our history dates back to the 1930's when the Australian Sisalkraft Company started manufacturing products used in packaging and as a wallwrap and building membrane. After WWII they developed the concept of adding foil to Sisalkraft to provide insulation benefits and that's how Sisalation® was born.
Then in the 1950's, ACI were the first company in Australia to make glasswool insulation from a plant in Botany, before the world class Dandenong site was developed in the 60's. This led to the development of batt insulation at a time when most competitors were still supplying granulated rockwool. ACI Pink Batts® became a household name in the 70's when they led the promotion of home insulation with the famous Pink Panther commercials.
Insulco® began more recently in 1979 and quickly grew to become a major force in the insulation market. Sales of both Fat Batts and Vapa-chek steadily increased Insulco's market share through the 80's and 90's. Insulco'scommitment to customer service and flexibility in manufacturing were the key to its success.
Fletcher Building acquired the Insulco business in 2003 and then Insulation Solutions (previously ACI) in 2005. These two businesses were joined to create Fletcher Insulation -taking the best from both companies to create a new standard in insulation for Australia.
