Thermowrap is what you need.
A search here will reveal more.
With luck you can get it BOGOF at the DIY stores.

:D Cant remember what its called but i used some stuff from B&Q. It looks like bubble wrap encased in silver foil. Its for house insulation & supposed to be loads more efficient than rockwool. I used it cos it was on offer and dead easy to cut and shape. The van has been roasty toasty since i put it in :ok
