The presence of thermal insulation: Convenience and savings
What is thermal insulation?
Thermal insulation is an advanced engineering technique that aims to slow down or prevent heat transfer between different environments. In the harsh Saudi climate, where temperatures exceed 50°C in the summer.
Thermal insulation acts as a protective shieldٍ that keeps buildings cool and reduces thermal loads on HVAC systems.
The scientific mechanism of thermal insulation:
Heat transfer occurs in three main ways:
- Thermal conduction: Through solids.
- Convection: Through air and liquids.
- Thermal radiation: Through infrared radiation.
Fabco’s advanced thermal insulation technologies counteract all these mechanisms, ensuring maximum protection.

Fabco’s recommendations to choose the best heat insulation material for your project
What is the best material for heat insulation? – Scientific Selection Methodology
Selecting the best heat insulation material requires a thoroughً analysisً of the following factors:
Critical technical factors:
- Type of application and location:
- Surface heat insulation:
Fabco recommends XPS panels with a thickness of 10 to 15 cm and a density of more than 30 kg/m³, to ensure high moisture resistance and withstand extreme climatic conditions.
- External walls:
EPS panels with a thickness of 8 to 12 cm and a density of 20 to 25 kg/m³ are preferred to provide effective insulation while being lightweight and easy to install.
- Flooring:
XPS boards with a thickness of 5 to 10 cm and a density of more than 35 kg/m³ are the best choice, as they offer high compressive strength and durability while maintaining thermal performance.
- Decorative applications:
ُ EPS panels with a thickness of 3 to 8 cm and a density of 15 to 20 kg/m³ are recommended for their flexibility and ease of molding to suit different architectural designs.
- Local environmental conditions:
- Desert climate: UV resistance.
- Coastal areas: Resistance to moisture and salts.
- Mountainous areas: Tolerance to thermal fluctuations.
- Specific performance requirements:
- Thermal resistance: R-Value required
- compressive strength: Depending on expected loads
- operational life: Warranty and maintenance period
