Abstract: © 2020 Elsevier Ltd Thermal insulation based on biomaterials with low energy embodied is a promising alternative to reduce the energy demand of the actual building stock and help meeting the climatic 2050 EU goals. Despite their appealing properties, these materials are not widely available in the insulation market for a variety of reasons such as a more laborious implementation compared to commercial alternatives. To overcome this limitation and change this trend, this work introduces a systematic method to generate efficient combinations of biomaterials with reduced cost and environmental impacts that could be manufactured as commercial sandwich or solid panels and fiber mats.
