WHY INSULATION?

There are different alternatives to improve energy efficiency in buildings. E.g. the promotion of electricity generated from renewable resources, usage of low energy light bulbs etc. and finally the usage of much more insulation in buildings.

Within all these alternatives,

  insulation is the most energy efficient and, at the same time, the most cost effective way of achieving energy savings objectives.

This applies for the construction of new buildings as well as for the renovation of the older buildings.

Improved thermal insulation of buildings will give immediate and long lasting results in terms of reduced energy consumption and hence CO2 emissions
