Thermal insulators are essential in terms of making structures conducive for people to live in and a nice place to work on. This experimental study aimed to develop a thermal insulator using recyclable materials namely; the coco coir from the coconut fruit and used polypropylene drinking straws. This lead to the assumption that all materials have a property to conduct heat and a material which has low thermal conductivity is an ideal insulator. Observing the physical properties of the coco coir being a composite material and various applications, It was incorporated, as well as the polypropylene used straws being commonly named as plastics gives an idea to make these materials the core components of a product that can be used as a thermal insulator.
