According to the U.S. Department of Energy, 9 out of 10 homes are poorly insulated and use up to 49 percent of their power for heating and cooling applications. This statistic exemplifies why households contribute to 20 percent of the nation’s emissions. Even businesses are affected, as the core problem lies in the limited access to sustainable and budget-friendly services that deliver smooth insulation installations and reduce the overall environmental impact.

A frontrunner in the space, Koala Insulation assists properties across the U.S. with a growing franchise of individual business owners that share its mission of providing impactful insulation through innovative and localized services.

Dedicated to serving the community of home and business owners throughout the nation, Koala—alongside its dedicated franchisees—boosts the energy efficiency and comfort levels of a customer’s living space. Through in-person assessments, its clients can schedule consultations to select insulation that best fits their building structures, weather conditions and set budgets.

“Our franchisees and their work within many communities help make buildings more efficient and comfortable for the final customers, which is ultimately what drives Koala Insulation’s value,” says Cory Lyons, brand president of Koala Insulation.

Through a rigorous vetting process, the Koala brand analyzes potential candidates by checking their business acumen, financial ability and franchise knowledge to find the right combination of partner and territory. These combined competencies allow franchises to rapidly adapt to the evolving home improvement landscape while helping customers to maximize insulation.

At the same time, Koala’s proven business model qualifies franchisees with uninterrupted access to world-class support and extensive training at low and flexible investment costs. In fact, its subject matter experts train franchise owners about the business and industry before guiding them to deliver high-quality installation and the best insulation performance. Prioritizing ‘offering’ solutions rather than ‘selling’ them, they teach a franchise to educate their customers and make them aware of building and insulation science, creating trust in delivering Koala’s world-class white glove customer service.

Beyond the training programs and consistent field assistance, it provides the latest brand and marketing strategies at fair advertising rates. Complementing this competency, its in-house marketing team and industry-leading partners create impactful promotional materials and strategically identify the best campaigns for generating leads. Fortifying these elements are its robust branding and powerful implementation systems, which collectively make Koala a go-to option for home improvement within the wider insulation industry.

Whether to increase the efficiency of an entire home or improve the comfort level of one specific room, Koala’s solutions ensure that the resulting productivity, safety and cost savings are in line with client requirements. All of its solutions are covered with a limited lifetime warranty to give customers a built-to-last, energy-efficient home with the perfect temperature throughout the year and much-needed peace of mind.

At the heart of its stellar customer service is a team of seasoned professionals with over 50 years of insulation expertise. Their proven strategies and contributions provide communities with expert guidance and world-class installation for better energy efficiency and lower monthly bills. Regardless of the project scope, customers do not have to worry about the post-construction clutter as Koala treats their homes with respect and provides timely cleanup after project completion.
