St Kilda Residential Development
By Mammoth Insulation
Mammoth - the only option for all homes in the energy efficient St Kilda Development
The Principals of the Development
The St Kilda residential development near Cambridge was built with a unique vision, in a semi-rural setting with surrounding wetlands and a commitment to energy efficient design.
The large family homes within the project employed smart design and energy saving features to keep the running costs and environmental impact low.
The design guidelines for the development take into account north-orientation, cross flow ventilation, heat sinks, solar control and above code levels of Mammoth ceiling and wall insulation.
Why Mammoth?
Developers Matt and Nikki Smith had a focus on both the internal and external environment with their development of the St Kilda project. Set among stunning wetlands, their focus was to ensure the sustainability and energy efficiency of the homes in the project was paramount.
The selection of Mammoth Polyester Insulation was driven by Sustainability, Life-time Cost and Health considerations. See the infographic explaining their selection here.
"All residential dwellings within the St Kilda development must use Mammoth polyester insulation as it is 100% recyclable, manufactured by InZone Industries, a carboNZero certified organization, certified ‘Red List Free’ under Declare programme and Mammoth airlay wall products were independently tested and achieved higher construction R-values."St Kilda Design and Building Guidelines

Our Take-back Program
Talking about taking product back and making it our client’s problem to get it back to us is one thing, actively putting bins around the country and making it easier for our clients to recycle their offcuts is another.
We don’t believe it is good enough to say, get it back to our factory and we will recycle the product. We believe putting our hand up and sharing that responsibility is a necessity. That’s why we are proud to announce we have started the process of putting Mammoth recycling bins around the country. The first two locations, beyond our factory in Auckland, are Hamilton and Wellington. We encourage all Mammoth Insulation users to bring their clean offcuts back to these locations so we can avoid landfill and create a circular economy by recycling them.
