Aerogel Insulation
High-performance thermal protection for oil, gas and industrial projects - the lowest thermal conductivity we supply, in a blanket thin enough to fit where conventional insulation will not.
Aerogel is produced by supercritical drying, which leaves a solid that is mostly air - and that is exactly what makes it insulate so well. The result is the lowest thermal conductivity of any material we supply, in a blanket thin enough to fit where conventional insulation will not.
Why engineers specify it
- Ultra-low thermal conductivity, for a significant reduction in heat transfer
- Long service life with high resistance to ageing
- Class A1 fire resistance
- Moisture-proof performance in humid environments
- Non-toxic and free of aggressive chemicals
- Space-saving and lightweight
- Cuts and installs easily on site
Where it is used
Aerogel suits the hot services where space, weight or repeated thermal cycling rule out thicker systems:
- Boiler and furnace insulation
- Steam turbine ductwork
- Flue gas piping
- Pipeline and tank insulation
- Distillation towers and chemical reactors
- Refineries and power stations
Industries served
Oil & gas, petrochemicals, power generation, manufacturing, marine and shipbuilding, pharmaceutical and chemical processing, and HVAC.
