Available for board, blanket, and pipe applications, mineral wool provides ideal thermal performance for mechanical/power and process piping systems.
This pre-formed, abuse-resistant pipe and block industrial insulation is known for its exceptional strength, durability, and low thermal conductivity.
Industrial insulation products are designed to meet various industrial needs, including addressing the challenging conditions of Canada’s oil and gas facilities, refineries, power generation, and petrochemical industries. These products are specially-made for thermal control, fire resistance, and sound absorption. Our industrial insulation products can be used on pipes and equipment, and throughout structures to improve energy usage and increase safety measures. After installation, industrial insulation products provide temperature regulation, energy conservation, and overall operational efficiency.
Industrial insulation is made from specialized materials that are designed to regulate temperature, enhance energy efficiency, and help to improve safe mechanical conditions in various industrial settings. Materials like fiberglass, mineral wool, and foam board are used to create barriers that minimize heat transfer, control condensation, and provide fire resistance. Industrial insulation is important in mechanical settings, like manufacturing, where maintaining safe operating conditions is crucial for workers, equipment, and processes.
Pipe and vessel insulation is composed of specialized materials that are designed to control heat transfer and minimize noise that occurs with pipes and other industrial vessels. This type of mechanical insulation is used to regulate temperatures, conserve energy, and improve safety in various industrial applications.
Common pipe and vessel insulation materials include fiberglass, foam, and mineral wool, which are ideal for mechanical insulation because of their thermal resistance properties. By preventing heat loss or gain, pipe and vessel insulation ensures efficient operation and protects against environmental elements.
Pipe and vessel insulation offers several benefits including:
Fire Resistant: Acts as a critical fire barrier in industrial settings, helping to protect both personnel and equipment.
Energy Saving: Reduces heat flow, saving energy in pipe and vessel operations.
Noise Control: Decreases noise by creating denser structures for effective barriers against noise.
Condensation Control: Prevents condensation by maintaining surface temperatures above dew point, mitigating corrosion risks.
Pipe and Vessel Freezing: Minimizes the risk of freezing, which is crucial for pipes and vessels in colder climates.
Easy Installation: Mineral wool, fiberglass, and aerogels are easy to use with either quick cutting or flexible installation.
Given the wide range of applications for industrial insulation, determining the best industrial insulation material depends on the specific requirements for each project.
For example, fiberglass is best for affordability and effectiveness, while mineral wool is best for a fire retardant solution. Aerogel, another type of industrial insulation, is known for its durability and flexibility, making it the best choice for easy installation while also acting as a quality mechanical insulation. The choice for the “best” industrial insulation material really depends on factors that are unique to the intended application.
