Non-Combustible Cellular Glass Pipe Insulation for Cryogenic & High-Temperature Services
Foamglass pipe and block insulation is a rigid, lightweight insulating material composed of millions of completely sealed glass cells, each providing superior insulation. The all-glass, closed-cell structure delivers an unmatched combination of physical properties, being impermeable to moisture in any form, non-combustible, and unable to burn. This insulation is primarily used in process piping, tanks, vessels, and equipment applications within gas processing, refining, petrochemical, and specialty chemical industries. Foamglass blocks can handle operating temperatures from -450°F to +900°F (-268°C to +482°C).
