Granulated Cork

Granulated cork is a type of material that falls under the supply class of Wallboard, Building Paper, and Thermal Insulation Materials in the supply group of Construction and Building Materials.

Granulated cork is made from cork, which is the bark of the cork oak tree. It is processed into small granules or particles, which can then be used in various construction and building applications.

One common use of granulated cork is as an insulation material. It has excellent thermal insulation properties, which means it can help to regulate temperature and reduce energy consumption in buildings. It is often used in walls, roofs, and floors to improve the energy efficiency of a structure.

Granulated cork can also be used as a component in wallboard and building paper. It can be mixed with other materials to create composite boards or sheets that have enhanced insulation properties. These products are commonly used in the construction industry for interior and exterior wall applications.

In addition to its insulation properties, granulated cork also offers other benefits. It is lightweight, fire-resistant, and has good acoustic insulation properties, making it a versatile material for construction and building projects.

Overall, granulated cork is a valuable material in the construction and building industry, providing insulation, fire resistance, and acoustic properties to various applications.
