Abstract

Nowadays, due to overpopulation heating energy consumptions constantly in-creasing, however this could be reduced by suitable insulation materials. Thermal insulation products play a significant role in building materials. In the construction and building indus-try reed is known as an ecological insulation material. Using reed energy-saving production process can be created and with this natural material, environmentally friendly material use can be achieved. For this reason the present study has a dual goal: partly integration of ground reed into cement foam as a space filler and insulation material, on the other part making an insulating panel using reed particles. During the experiment, the reed fibres were cut and then mixed with cement paste. In this research work the compressive strength of the samples (at 7, 17 and 28 days), density and finally the thermal conductivity of the samples were mea-sured.
