Thermal Wall Coverings

Has anyone any experience of thermal wall coverings, such as Wallrock? I'm interested to know how effective they are and about any problems with application. I already have cavity wall insulation and 10 inches of insulation in my loft. I live in a small, end terrace bungalow which is already fairly ecomonical to heat, but as energy prices are obviously set to rise annually, I wonder whether I should invest in another heat retaining layer. I would be grateful for any thoughts/ experiences.

it's rubbish.

If you have cavity wall insulation, it will be 50mm to 100mm thick. If you have up-to-date loft insulation, it will be 250mm to 300mm thick.

The wall stuff is about 3mm thick. slightly better at keeping heat in that thick wallpaper.
