Knauf Insulation is an international company owned by the Knauf family and is an important manufacturer of insulation products in the US and Europe. [1] The company is a producer of insulation materials such as glass wool, stone wool, wood wool boards, EPS, XPS, as well as the Heradesign wood wool based acoustic ceiling systems.
Knauf Group is a multinational, family-owned company based in Iphofen, Germany, well known for drywall gypsum boards, founded in 1932. The company is a producer of building materials and construction systems comprising construction materials for drywall construction, plasterboard, cement boards, mineral fibre acoustic boards, dry mortars with gypsum for internal plaster and cement-based ...
This is a list of insulation materials used around the world. Typical R-values are given for various materials and structures as approximations based on the average of available figures and are sorted by lowest value. R-value at 1 m gives R-values normalised to a 1 metre (3 ft 3 in) thickness and sorts by median value of the range.
Installed faced fiberglass batt insulation with its R-value visible (R-21) [1]. The R-value (in K⋅m 2 /W) is a measure of how well a two-dimensional barrier, such as a layer of insulation, a window or a complete wall or ceiling, resists the conductive [2] flow of heat, in the context of construction.

Various sized cuts of 1 ⁄ 2 in (13 mm) drywall with tools for maintenance and installation . Drywall (also called plasterboard, dry lining, [1] wallboard, sheet rock, gib board, gypsum board, buster board, turtles board, slap board, custard board, gypsum panel and gyprock) is a panel made of calcium sulfate dihydrate (), with or without additives, typically extruded between thick sheets of ...
1D nesting - for cutting optimization of one-dimensional parts such as bars, trusses, wires, pipes, rails; 2D nesting - for cutting optimization of flat parts such as sheet metal, cloth, glass, paper, leather nesting of rectangular shapes vs. nesting of multiple freeform 2D shapes (optionally with holes/isles)
Thermal insulation is the reduction of heat transfer (i.e., the transfer of thermal energy between objects of differing temperature) between objects in thermal contact or in range of radiative influence. Thermal insulation can be achieved with specially engineered methods or processes, as well as with suitable object shapes and materials.
Nesting algorithms are used to make the most efficient use of material or space. This could for instance be done by evaluating many different possible combinations via recursion . Linear (1-dimensional): The simplest of the algorithms illustrated here.
