Insulation Batts

Installing insulation is a challenging job, not because of the immense variety and day to day changes, but rather the lack of them. Despite being a job that takes you all over the city to different construction sites, the monotony sets in as it all blends into the same routine and rhythm. Loading Insulation into Transport Vehicle                   Days begin the same way. Loading insulation into trucks at the crack of dawn in order to ‘beat traffic’. The most effective way of doing this is by using machinery such as a forklift with a special hydraulic attachment. This attachment, sometimes called a ‘grab’ can rotate as well as grab, as the name suggests, enabling the operator to pick up multiple bales of insulation at a time and swivel them around so they are able to be stacked horizontally or vertically onto a truck or ute.

With a prolonged worldwide focus on energy efficiency and reducing carbon emissions it is not surprising that there is a huge market within industries such as building and construction for anything that promotes sustainability and a greener planet. Here the insulation industry has had an important role to play in creating homes that are warmer in winter and cooler in summer, without the excessive use of HVAC systems. Thermal insulation provides a barrier that resists the transfer of heat in cold and hot weather resulting in more comfortable homes, reduced energy consumption and lower energy bills. However, it seems that it is not only a goal of reducing carbon emissions that has been driving the insulation industry and studies suggest that the demand for sound insulation is also growing on a global scale. New independent research predicts that commercial building will lead the growth, followed by residential construction, industry applications and aviation. Unbiased and Informati...
