AeroTherm For Industry

Save up to 25% energy on furnaces and plant equipment  

The AeroTherm coating reduces surface temperatures, reduces the ambient surrounding temperature and has been shown to save up to 25% in energy costs.

By applying just a 3mm layer of microsphere and aerogel technology, AeroTherm provides a very flexible and cost effective method to insulate new or existing hot plant and equipment.  The AeroTherm coating can be spray or trowel applied, provides a compatible strong adhesion to most smooth surfaces and has an A2 fire rating.  It can be applied to many types of plant and equipment, within a surface temperature range of -40oC to 150oC, including:

  • furnaces
  • boilers 
  • holding tanks
  • storage vessels
  • engines

As a retrofit solution, AeroTherm can be applied in situ if surfaces temperatures are suitably low or when machine downtime periods of 3-4 days can be identified.  The equipment is normally de-greased and then AeroTherm is applied in two coats to reach a 3mm coating.  The outer surface can then be painted so that the finished surface blends into the environment.   Not only does AeroTherm save energy in the use of the plant and equipment, but it reduces surface temperatures to safe levels and improves the thermal comfort of the industrial workplace for plant operatives and employees. It can also be very effective at helping to maintain safe temperature ranges for sensitive liquids and materials.

AeroTherm has been used to reduce energy costs of furnaces right across Europe, with a recent reference site now complete in the UK.  Many customers report payback periods within one year.

AeroTherm can also be included in furnace design and manufacture so that it is neatly incorporated into the skin of the furnace itself. Please contact us to discuss the potential industrial applications.
