Industrial Thermal Insulation
Industrial thermal insulation is now a major strategic challenge for businesses. Faced with current energy challenges and the need to reduce operational costs, insulating mattresses emerge as an innovative and high-performance solution for optimizing industrial networks.
What is
thermal insulation
industrial?
Industrial thermal insulation aims to limit energy losses in industrial fluid networks. This technical approach helps maintain the temperature of fluids (steam, hot water, thermal oil, organic fluids) as they pass through the various network elements.
THE CHALLENGES OF INDUSTRIAL INSULATION
In an industrial context, singular points (valves, taps, filters, flanges, pumps) generate the majority of thermal losses. Unlike traditional insulation using aluminum boxes, which is often obsolete and expensive, insulating mattresses offer a modern and effective solution.
Insulating mattresses:
a revolution in
insulation
Operating Principle
The insulating mattress is a flexible thermal insulation solution specifically designed to adapt to the complex shapes of industrial equipment. Custom-made, these mattresses provide optimal insulation for networks operating between 20 and 1000°C.
Product Range
The offer is divided into several categories:
- Semi-standardized mattresses for common applications
- Custom flat mattresses for flat surfaces
- Custom shaped mattresses for complex geometries
Specific solutions for particular needs
Materials and Technologies
Insulating mattresses incorporate high-performance materials:
- Glass fabrics for thermal resistance
- Silica felt for insulation
- Rock wool for high temperatures
- Kevlar thread for stitching (resistance up to 3000°C)
These materials ensure excellent resistance to heat, cold, sun, water and chemical aggressions.
The Advantages of Mattress Insulation
