Insulation in Buildings: The Key to Energy Efficiency and Sustainability

Insulation is a material or combination of materials that are used to reduce the transfer of heat or sound between two areas of different temperatures or sound levels. In construction, insulation is used to keep buildings and homes more energy-efficient by preventing heat from escaping in the winter and keeping heat out in the summer.
