Koala Insulation Sets Its Sights on Indianapolis for Expansion
The energy efficiency industry, currently valued at $52 billion, is about to grow even more thanks to a significant expansion by Koala Insulation. This fast-growing insulation franchise brand, a member of the Empower Brands family, is launching operations in the Indianapolis metropolitan area. The initiative will open six new territories, paving the way for local entrepreneurs to establish mobile, eco-friendly businesses focused on insulation solutions that enhance comfort and minimize energy waste.
Indianapolis has quickly become one of the most vibrant housing markets in the country. Suburbs like Carmel, Fishers, Noblesville, and Greenwood are experiencing substantial growth. As the area experiences varied weather—from hot summers to freezing winters—the demand for efficient insulation solutions peaks. Koala Insulation anticipates that its entry into the market will create around a dozen new jobs, contributing approximately $6.6 million in local economic activity annually.
Cory Lyons, the Brand President of Koala Insulation, expressed enthusiasm about this venture, stating, "Indianapolis homeowners are increasingly concerned about energy efficiency, comfort, and sustainability, and that's where Koala Insulation shines. We aren't just establishing a business; we're helping the community save on energy bills, nurture local employment, and encourage a greener lifestyle."
The company provides a range of insulation services, including spray foam, blown-in, and batt insulation for both residential and commercial properties. What sets Koala Insulation apart is its mobile, low-overhead business model that franchisees can leverage to maximize efficiency. Franchise owners benefit from comprehensive training at the brand’s cutting-edge facility, along with marketing, operational, and technological support designed to simplify their daily operations and boost profitability.
Shawn Stegner, who owns the St. Paul territory, noted, "Running a Koala Insulation franchise has enabled me to make a tangible impact in my community. It’s gratifying to assist homeowners in reducing their energy costs while running a business supported by exceptional training and a proven system."
Interested entrepreneurs are invited to explore franchise opportunities across Indianapolis and the surrounding Central Indiana regions. More information can be found on
