Storage heaters and wall linings

Hello all
I am moving some 4 year old Dimplex storage heaters and notice how they have destroyed the plaster on the stud walls behind them all. When I put them back on the walls, I think I should put some sort of insulated lining behind them.
Any suggestions?
Regards

It always make sense to insulate walls behind radiators. Deflect heat back into the room.
At the cheapest end of the market, just use tinfoil. DIY stores stock specialist foil (sort of tinfoil with bubble wrap!) which is pretty cheap.0 -
Thanks - anyone else have suggestions?0

fire rated plasterboard maybe? It should be able to withstand the heat.0
