The alarming fact of global warming increasing at a rapid pace means the temperature of the whole world is changing. Summers are becoming unbearable by the year. With the ozone layer heavily damaged due to various factors humans are contributing, it is no wonder that the average temperature across the globe is increasing. Pakistan being close to equator maintains a very high temperature for almost eight to 10 months in a year. The harsh heat of scorching sun hits the rooftops directly, making it difficult for people to live without air conditioners. Thermal insulation is a solution that helps you save energy, and of course your hard-earned money that is otherwise spent on heavy electricity bills.

What is Thermal insulation? Thermal insulation prevents the entrance or escaping of heat through surfaces with a purpose of maintaining the temperature inside those surfaces. It is one of the most reliable solutions to keep your indoors temperature controlled to suit your needs.

At BMT you’ll get these four most effective and high-in-demand types of thermal insulation:

Polyurethane Insulation
Polyurethane is the most commonly used insulation material in Pakistan. When isocyanate is mixed with polyol, the result is a foam, a lightweight polymer with a high insulation nature. It is this foam that is used as the main ingredient for insulating walls and rooftops.

Polystyrene Insulation (XPS/EPS)
Polystyrene is a another commonly known insulation material, but not with this name. It is more commonly known as thermopore. It is made from styrene, and is waterproof with a low melting point, making it a great material for heat insulation.

Fiberglass
Another very effective type of insulation, which has now become a décor trend, is fiberglass. It is quite old, and has been used since ages. As the name suggests, fiberglass is extremely fine fibers of glass densely packed together with little airholes in them.

Rockwool Insulation
Rookwood is famous because of how easy it is to install it. It is also among the popular choices of thermal insulation in Pakistan.  Rockwood is made of rocks processed in a certain way to create shards that are closely packed, and then used as an insulation layer.
