Aim of the research is to create an ecological heat isolation material from coniferous tree greenery (needles and thin branches). According to the three factor experiment plan, samples were made and thermal conductivity and density of the samples were tested in the laboratory. Results show that thermal properties of the created needle heat isolation material are close to thermal properties of wood isolation material and it is worth to continue this research for further development and manufacturing of the product.
