    Thermal insulations

    According to the study, the first insulated panels was built in organic material in the

    19th century. Where reef panels were first used in the 19th century as thermal insulation

    mainly in ancillary buildings. They where popular because they were impervious to decay

    but they had poor hydroscopic ability. Also in the beginning of the 20th century reed

    panels appeared with bituminous coatings but they did not spread because of their

    flammability and unreliable quality.

    In 1920, the American Celotex company introduced insulating panels made of

    bagasse. A bagasse is waste by product of sugar manufacturing. It was used as thermal

    insulation in home construction and in the manufacture of refrigerated railroad cars.

    In 1910, the first attempt to produce flax panels for roof insulation it is made from the

    USA it is put on the market in 1910.

    Reviving this technology in 1893, the American industrialist, Samuel Cabot (1850-

    1906) Cabot developed a new insulating blanket called Cabot-Quilt. This product

    consisted of dried eelgrass which sandwiched between two layers of craft paper or

    asbestos. And the product remained on the market until the 1940s.

    Caius Plinius Secunus the Elder(23 AD -79AD) the roman used cork for insulating

    roof. The first Cork insulating panels were produced in the 1870s. people used them for

    sheathing the inner side of facade walls. And after that they had serious problems,

    beneath the panels condensation developed and various kinds of parasites( fungus,

    insects) were established inside. And then in 1880s some products made from pulped
    cork, lime and clay appeared. They had a lower insulation qualities but they have a

    lower vapour resistance. This product is mainly used in pipe insulation.

    In 1880s in the Nebraska(USA) the first building made of straw bale. The straw bale

    construction was born with the first machine manufactured modular bales.

    In the early 20th century wood shavings and saw dust were very popular insulation

    products because their costs were very low and the raw material was readily available.

    These materials were often mixed with various chemicals to increase their resistance to

    water absorption.

    In 1842, the history of wood wool insulation when Herr von Pannewich in

    Breslau( Wroclaw, Poland) produced bedspreads by processing pine needles. With the

    first shredding machines appearing in 1876, the mass production of wood wool makes

    possible. ( https://pp.bme.hu/ar/article/view/12/12 )
