Polyolefin (XLPE) Insulation

Closed-cell cross-linked polyethylene for chilled water, condensate and HVAC duct work - low water absorption, UV and ozone resistant, and light enough to install quickly on large runs.

Product Details

Cross-linked polyethylene is the practical choice on large MEP packages: closed-cell, light, flexible and quick to install over long duct and pipe runs. It resists water pickup and shrugs off UV and ozone, so it holds up on plant rooms and rooftops as well as inside ceilings.

Why engineers specify it

  • Closed-cell cross-linked structure with low water absorption
  • UV and ozone resistant
  • Lightweight and easy to handle on long runs
  • Useful acoustic performance in buildings
  • Several thicknesses to suit the specification

Where it is used

  • Chilled water pipe and duct insulation
  • Cold water and condensate pipes
  • HVAC ducting and pipework
  • Acoustic insulation in buildings

Also available

Matching adhesive and tape-based solutions for sealing laps and terminations.
