Such materials are called insulators. Examples include dry wood, ceramics, plastic. No material allows absolutely no electricity to pass through; the so-called insulators simply have a very high electrical resistance, so they only allow a small, usually insignificant, amount of current to pass.

Material that allows electricity to pass through?
