Method for attaching insulation panels

A method for connecting insulation panels comprising two sides, an outside edge, and a total width, within an area ⅓ or less the distance of the total width from the outside edge, each of the panels comprising a cellulosic web comprising layers of cellulosic fibers, the method comprising:

• a) arranging a portion of each panel to be adjacent to the other, thereby forming a connection portion where the two webs can be connected;
• b) relaxing the fibers of cellulosic material in the connection portion of each insulation panel by moistening the cellulosic web in the connection portion to a level of 0.5 to 2 lb water/lb cellulosic web, thereby forming a relaxed connection portion;
• c) compressing with mechanical pressure the relaxed connection portion of each insulation panel at a pressure of at least 5 psig, thereby forming a compressed panel portion having a thickness and a density;
• and
• d) fastening the compressed panel portions together using sewing, riveting, adhesive, tape, interlacing, stamping, ply bonding or stapling thereby forming a fastened area.

• (b) relaxing the fibers of cellulosic material in the connection portion of each insulation panel by moistening the cellulosic web in the connection portion, thereby forming a relaxed connection portion;
• (c) compressing with mechanical pressure the relaxed connection portion of each insulation panel at a pressure of from 5 to 50 psig, thereby forming a compressed panel portion having a thickness and a density;
• and
• (d) fastening the compressed panel portions together using sewing, riveting, adhesive, tape, interlacing, stamping, ply bonding or stapling thereby forming a fastened area.
