Heat insulators are simply materials that don't allow heat to pass through it. Some examples of these materials are woods, glass and ceramic. Ceramics are the most commonly used thermal (heat) insulators.


Benefits

Insulation is the building component which controls temperature directly affecting the movement of moisture to and from building spaces. It provides the principal resistance to air leakage. Insulation provides energy savings, condensation control, noise control and enhanced light reflectivity that will remain with the building over the life of the structure.
