ustainability in buildings are currently evaluated not only based upon thermal insulation thickness and heating demand, but
also according to primary energy demand, CO

reductions, and ecological properties of the building materials. Ecological
insulation materials have been available on the market for a long time; however, conventional materials are still predominantly
used. In this work, the potential applicability of a recycled textile materials, based on acrylic and wool waste is investigated.
The thermal insulation materials are fabricated by needle punching technique which is based on mechanic consolidation. The
developed insulations are thermo-physically characterized in term of density, air permeability and thermal conductivity. Their
properties are inserted into a numerical model, which simulates an external wall exposed to the real climatic conditions of
Casablanca, Morocco, in order to study their thermal performance. Finally, an economic model based on life cycle cost analysis
(LCC) is adopted to investigate the competitiveness of the developed insulation based on their cost. An interesting result is
obtained in terms of thermal performance and cost and will be presented in the conference.
