Energy efficiency at a price

Ceramic is an excellent thermal insulation material and has a favorable thermal conductivity coefficient. Its high accumulation rate means that it takes a long time to heat up and also takes a long time to cool down. Therefore, with clinker walls, the investor is sure to experience significant savings by regulating heating bills in winter and air conditioning in summer.
