One of the factors affecting the environment is noise. For this reason, there was a need to find ways to isolate high sounds and reduce their impact on the environment. On the other side, wastes of industrial also harm the environment. Therefore, we start studying to recycle waste into benefit use as soundproof and heat insulator. In this research, we investigated several materials to produce a composite isolation material. This material can isolate sound and heat, using waste materials for manufacturing it. Also, illustrate the efficiency of this new composite material in isolation and cost. In this study, we use three types of waste materials cork, cardboard and fiberglass. These waste materials produced our new composite isolation material. Our samples were manufactured with dimensions of 10*10 cm and 2 cm thickness. Different amount of these materials was investigated to produce better isolation. Our study for the composite materials demonstrated that sample 3 was the better sound insulation than other samples that we used in our experiment, with isolation efficiency near to (84%). Moreover, sample 3 was the better one between our samples in heat isolation. In addition, sample 3 was the cheapest sample in cost of manufacturing, because we used white glue in producing of the sample.
