Abstract

The EU priorities of creating products with improved ecological footprint have led towards research for developing new insulation materials. Evaluation of the performance of insulation materials is a multi-criteria problem, which has to be carried out with respect to: physical properties, health and environmental protection, applicability as building elements and their cost. This paper investigates the fire resistance of an insulation structure made of apparel cutting waste. Hot metal nut test was selected as appropriate for insulation structures, as it represents most closely the conditions under exploitation. The results indicate that polyester is convenient for use in internal insulation structures as it is not conductive of flame.
