Insulation refers to the process of obstructing heat, electricity and sound from entering or exiting a physical space. It is achieved through the installation of insulation materials that act as a barrier for energy flow. Insulators usually have low thermal conductivity and are available in the form of mineral wool, polyethylene, polystyrene, etc. Wood-based products including hardboard and wooden doors also aid in insulation, and spray foams and adhesive strips are used to fill gaps between tiles and windows. The insulation of an area assists in reducing energy costs and moisture condensation, as well as increasing the safety and protection quotient for the individuals. It also assists in minimizing heat loss from uninsulated valves and bare pipes inside buildings, along with reducing noise pollution.

Global Insulation Market Trends:

The thriving construction industry is one of the key factors driving the market growth. Over time, there has been a significant increase in industrial and residential construction projects, along with the strong growth in infrastructural development, especially in emerging nations. Furthermore, growing consumer awareness for energy conservation is also positively impacting the market growth. The rapid urbanization and increasing population have enhanced the demand for power and energy owing to which, insulation materials are being extensively incorporated in various construction projects. Additionally, there is a significant increase in the sales of cooling appliances such as air conditioners and refrigerators, which is further boosting the growth of the market.
