Contrary to the logic expressed in the first answer, packing more tightly, glass wool would insulate slightly better, According to Izi, (sales person at Golmat ltd.). Doubling the thickness of glass wool insulation will double the insulating ratio, while doubling the density will increase the insulation ratio by about 15%.

Can you be allergic to lambs wool but not wool?
Answer
Wool only comes from lamb. However, if they make the wool in to thread or in some other form you may not be allergic to store wool and just the lamb's wool.Answer
Yes, lambs carry other nutrients and things on their skin. But these are combed out of the wool as it is being processed and made into fabric.
Answer
If you are allergic to a substance it means that you are producing an immune response to that substance. To produce an immune responce your body must be sensitized and be able to "recognise" the particular substance which is acting as an allergen. As sheep and lambs are the same creature at different stages of their life cycle there should be no difference in the chemical composition of the wool or lubricating secreations present. Problems may arise however in the chemicals used to treat lambs wool and sheep wool before it is made into a garment. So no, it is not possible to have an allergy to lambs and not sheeps wool but it is possible that they are treated with different chemicals and you may be allergic to one of these.
If however the "wool" you are refering to is from a different species such as a llama, you may be allergic to lambs wool but not llama wool.
