Insulation Product
The purpose of these materials is to protect the walls after proper insulation,
from heat radiations as it provides thermal barrier on the surface of
the walls. They should be perfectly to the R-value, which implies to
the industry standard unit of measuring the standard insular properties
of material, its resistance to heat flow and transfer.
Key specifications available for building insulation
1. Length- The measurement across the longest side of the unit (feet).
2. Facing- Surface material bonded to the top surface of the unit (foil,
Kraft paper, etc)
3. Width- the measurement across the shortest side of the unit (feet)
4. R-value-the industry standard unit of measuring the standard insular
properties of material.
5. Thickness- the measurement between the top face and the bottom face
(inches).

Glass wool batts
They have guaranteed R-values. They are fire safe and proven extensive
research to be health safe.
Rock wool batts
They are the premium insulation product. It cannot be compressed and
transport costs make it a more expensive home insulation product.
Sheep wool batts
It has limited range of R-values and different widths. It needs to be
completely cleaned of all the natural sheep oils.
Polyester batts
It has limited range of R-values and different widths. The nature of
the fibers makes it difficult to achieve R-value batts and blankets.
Polystyrene
It includes suspending ceiling raked ceiling and sheds.
Cellulose fiber loose fill
It is made from recycled newspapers. It has fire retardant chemicals.
Cosywrap
A special water replant grade of granulated rock wool is used for cavity
wall insulation, insulation of double brick walls.
Boiler Insulation
Boilers are often in use for thousands of hours in year. During such use, they emit heat into the surrounding atmosphere. This results in heat loss due to radiation and conduction which reduces the performance of the boilers over a period of time....
Electrical Insulation
An insulator is a material or object that contains no movable electrical charges when used along with live electrical appliances. When a voltage is placed across an insulator, no charges flow, so no electrical current appears. Electrical insulation...
Garage Door Insulation
Various types of insulation are available for garage doors. Some insulation materials may be available with the doors in a readymade condition and only need to be fixed to the doorframe saving a lot of time, money and effort on garage door...
