Wall Insulation Types

There are number of wall insulation types that are used in the construction stage of a residential or commercial building. The insulation you will require is dependent on the wall system and construction. For new buildings, insulation is mandatory and must comply with your Building Sustainability Index (BASIX) and the thermal requirements defined in your development application (DA).
