“Decarbonisation of the construction industry is a critical element of Scotland’s journey to net zero. IndiNature’s innovative natural fibre construction insulation has the potential to deliver significant reductions in embodied carbon in the construction process, thereby enabling a shift towards more sustainable buildings and construction practices for the long term.
It was clear through working with IndiNature that its products fundamentally supported the delivery of the Bank’s missions and that the Bank’s patient capital could help the company to achieve its growth aspirations, with the potential for positive economic benefits for Scotland as a result.”
Scott Simpson, Co-founder & CEO of IndiNature added:

"It feels great that we can move forward to create local Borders jobs and make insulation on scale in Scotland - insulation that's good for people's health and the planet.
