Polyester
is more cost effective than any other
materials, providing people of all budgets
with an option to consider the benefits
of both. This delivers outstanding insulation
in ceilings and walls.
Polyester
Fibers have a wide variety of end uses
in field such as medical, food storage
and presentation, apparel and bedding,
and of course, the insulation industry.
This evidently demonstrates a high degree
of cleanliness, safety and consumer
satisfaction.

Why Polyester?
|
| |
| As more and more people consider
the possible concerns of fiberglass materials
going into their homes or offices, Architects,
Builders, and Designers are using safe, soft
and easy to install products such as Polyester.
Hueintek Inc. manufactures a polyester for many
uses in the building industry, furniture industry.
Polyester is a totally safe, user friendly fiber,
which is cost effective and easy to install.
Polyester is insect proof, and is not attacked
by - nor does it provide nourishment for -
keratin eating insects.
Polyester is hydrophobic and naturally repels
water so that the product remains largely
unaffected by accidental exposure to moisture.
Increasingly, polyester is providing the
building industry with an effective but economical
alternative. Polyester is used in a wide variety
of applications where safety is of the utmost
concern, confirming this products status as
a safe, cost effective and long term option
for architects, builders and home owners.

Thermal Applications |
| |
| Thermal Insulation reduces the
flow of heat through structures of the building
such as walls, ceilings, roofs and floors. By
adding bulk insulation, the temperature can
be adjusted. Today, when discussing insulation,
the first thought that most will have is the
use of an insulation material in a thermal application.
Man has been using materials ? both knowingly
and unknowingly ? for thousands of years to
keep his living environment comfortable for
himself and his family. Insulation is normally
associated with the positioning of a material
normally a fibrous mat or wadding ? which acts
as a barrier to the movement of heat through
the bulk. When designing dwellings or structures
all facets of the building must be taken into
account.
The orientation of the building will markedly
effect the requirements the structure has
in relation to the insulation. The presence
or absence of shading or overhang etc will
have an effect on the level of heat transfer
across walls and through the ceiling. Large
windows, especially on the northern and western
sides of a building, can negate the effects
of insulated walls and ceilings. The materials
from which the building walls are constructed
will affect the rate of heat transfer and
thus the level of insulation that is required.
The relative levels of external and internal
temperatures will effect the rating of insulation
required. Apart from the above, the major
entry points for heat into a building are
through the ceiling and walls. The installation
of the correct level of insulation to the
ceiling/roof and the external walls can markedly
improve the livability and comfort levels
of a building. In this way, the entry or exit
of heat through the walls, roof, or floor
of a building can be significantly reduced,
thereby making the inhabitants more comfortable
and saving heating or cooling costs in the
process. |
