The contribution from Sanyou London
Alongside the editorial work, Professor Saim Memon, CEO of Sanyou London, has authored the chapter:
“The Invention of Vacuum Insulated Wallpaper (VIW) for Energy Savings and Net-Zero Energy Sustainability Goals” (pp. 23–31; first online: 19 July 2025). The chapter outlines VIW as an ultra-thin (~4 mm) internal insulation delivering ~5 mW/m·K effective thermal conductivity, with comparative analyses against common insulants and liners. It frames VIW as a DIY-friendly retrofit that targets high impact with minimal depth—vital where space and disruption constraints block conventional upgrades. SpringerLink
Why this matters
- For universities and R&D centres: the volume consolidates fresh evidence on marine renewables and built-environment efficiency, providing citable material for teaching, policy and further research. SpringerLink
- For decision-makers and estate owners: the chapter on VIW demonstrates a fabric-first approach that reduces heat transfer at millimetre scale, supporting net-zero programmes without sacrificing usable space. SpringerLink
- For architects, contractors and distributors: VIW’s thin build-up enables room-by-room retrofits, clean finishes and faster programmes—practical where residents remain in situ. SpringerLink

Q&A: What does this mean for partners?
Q: How does VIW differ from conventional insulation?
A: It targets very low conductivity at minimal thickness, preserving floor area and limiting disruption—particularly valuable in tight rooms, heritage settings and live sites. SpringerLink
Q: Where does this fit into net-zero plans?
A: Fabric-first cuts reduce heating/cooling demand and peak loads; these savings complement renewables, storage and smart controls to deliver measurable, financeable outcomes. SpringerLink
Q: Who should engage with this work?
A: Universities, developers, architects, contractors, local suppliers and distributors seeking specifications, pilots and training for space-efficient energy retrofits.
Work with Sanyou London
- Spec sheets, samples and pilots: VIW for internal walls; additional formats (VIP/DVIP/Flexible VIP) on request.
- Collaboration: joint studies with universities and estates to measure U-value and energy impacts in live projects.
