We (IRESEN) organize the international event: SOLAR DECATHLON AFRICA in Benguerir in Morocco. 20 teams are competing to build ecological houses with high thermal insulation. Indeed, many of them use cork as a material insulator. you can visit us and meet our expertise in this area. However, I can give you some industrial contacts.
You may visit any Heat mass transfer laboratory of Mechanical Engineering wherein experiments are available for the test on how heat is transferred in any material by three modes.
Cork is a very good insulation material as well as damp proof. The air in the cork provide insulation.

I have the experience of using Foamed Glass Aggregate (FGA) (a by-product of Waste Glass) as a suitable Super-Lightweight Insulating Construction Material. Please check the references provided below to find useful information on FGA as well as the experimental studies that have been carried out in three levels of Small-scale Lab Tests, Large-scale Lab Tests and Field Tests.
