No. Wood and plastic are two materials, not one.
They can be insulators, or a composite made from wood and plastic could be an insulator but THEY cannot be ANinsulator.

Is plastic a thermal insulator?
yes
Is plastic an insulator?
yes plastic is very good insulator
Are plastic plates a conductor or insulator?
Insulator
Is plastic a good insulator or conductor?
Plastic is an insulator for normal potential differences. The same plastic may start conducting if the volt given to it is very high of the order of megavolt. While conduction plastic will be broken.
Is a plastic clothes hanger a insulator or conductor?
Insulator, unless you use the metal hanging part.
Which does ice melt slower plastic or wood?
Two identical pieces of ice, each placed on identically sized and shaped blocks of plastic and wood at the same temperature, will melt at a rate proportional to the thermal conductivity and the thermal mass of the object they are on. Generally, wood is a better thermal insulator than plastic. Short answer: wood.
Is wood thermal conductor?
Wood is a thermal insulator. It is a poor conductor of heat.
Is plastic a thermal insulator?
yes
Is plasticine a conductor or insulator?
Plastic is an electrical and thermal insulator.
What is an example of an insulator and why?
the handle on a pot is an insulator that prevents you from being burned. this is a thermal insulator.
Is a toothpick a conductor or a insulator?
If the toothpick is made of wood or plastic, it would act as an insulator.
Metal plastic glass or ceramic What is the best insulator?
The best insulator in descending order is, glass, plastic and then wood.
An example of a insulator?
An insulator has several different meanings. The two most common are an electrical insulator and a thermal insulator. an electrical insulator would be polyethylene. a thermal insulator would be wool.
What is a material that does not conduct heat or electricity well?
An insulator.
Why does the glass on a window pane feel cooler to the touch than the wood frame surrounding the glass?
Wood is a better thermal insulator than glass, which is easily cooled.
Is Wood a good heat insulator?
noansw2. Well, for lower temperatures, well removed from the ignition point of wood, it is quite a suitable thermal insulator.
What material is the worst conductor of heat?
the worst conductors of heat are wood, plastic, rubber, and cloth.
