Aerogel Insulation Solutions for Industrial and Building Applications

Aerogel, known for its superior thermal performance and lightweight properties, has become essential in various industries, including industrial high-heat environments, cold service applications, and building envelope solutions. From high-temperature industrial operations to energy-efficient building designs, aerogel insulation can enhance performance, cost savings, and long-term durability.

At Airtight Distribution, we offer a range of cutting-edge aerogel products tailored to meet the diverse needs of these sectors.

Industrial High-Heat Aerogel Insulation

Industrial environments that require high-temperature resistance often face heat loss, energy efficiency, and worker safety challenges. Our aerogel insulation products offer top-tier thermal protection to address these concerns.

Pyrogel® XT-E

Pyrogel XT-E is one of the most effective high-temperature insulation materials on the market, designed for both ease of installation and high-performance insulation. Key features of Pyrogel XT-E include:

• Superior thermal performance even in the most demanding industrial environments.
• Extreme durability, enabling it to withstand compression and mechanical stress.
• High flexibility, making it ideal for insulation in confined or irregular spaces.
• Excellent hydrophobic properties to repel water while maintaining breathability.

This product is ideal for high-temperature industrial processes, reducing heat loss and improving energy efficiency in power generation, petrochemical plants, and oil refineries.

Pyrogel® HPS

Pyrogel HPS is another high-performing aerogel insulation product specifically designed for high-temperature applications. It offers:

• Unmatched resistance to heat and fire, ensuring safety in high-risk industrial environments.
• Long-lasting performance under extreme conditions, reducing maintenance costs.
• Thin profile, perfect for tight installations without sacrificing thermal performance.

Pyrogel HPS is particularly suited for industries requiring high-temperature performance and space-saving insulation, such as refineries and chemical plants.

ArmaGel HT

ArmaGel HT provides efficient thermal insulation for high-temperature applications, making it a versatile choice for industrial environments. Key advantages include:

• High thermal resistance up to 650°F (343°C), ideal for steam lines, hot liquid transport, and high-heat industrial processes.
• Lightweight and flexible, allowing for easier installation and handling.
• Resistant to mechanical abuse and compression.

ArmaGel HT is an excellent option for industries that require robust insulation for high-temperature applications while maintaining flexibility and durability.

Industrial Cold Service Aerogel Insulation

Cold service applications present unique challenges, such as condensation control and maintaining low temperatures over extended distances. Airtight Distribution offers leading aerogel products designed for cold service insulation, ensuring maximum efficiency and reduced energy consumption.

Cryogel Z®

Cryogel Z is specifically engineered for cold service environments. Its key benefits include:

• Superior thermal conductivity, ideal for cryogenic and low-temperature applications.
• Built-in moisture resistance, preventing the risk of condensation.
• Flexible and lightweight, ensuring ease of installation around complex piping systems.

Cryogel Z is frequently used in industries that handle liquefied gases, cryogenic equipment, and cold storage systems.

ArmaGel DT

ArmaGel DT offers an innovative solution for cold service insulation. With its unique design, it provides:

• Exceptional thermal insulation for cold and cryogenic systems.
• Moisture-resistant properties to prevent condensation.
• Thin profile, reducing space requirements while maintaining thermal efficiency.

ArmaGel DT is ideal for use in industries requiring cryogenic insulation, such as food processing, chemical manufacturing, and pharmaceutical storage.

Building Envelope Aerogel Insulation

Aerogel insulation is critical in modern building envelope solutions, contributing to energy efficiency, thermal bridging reduction, and space-saving design. Although some aerogel products in this category are either no longer in production or struggle with distribution channels, architects and engineers still include them in specifications, and we can offer similar, alternative solutions.

Spaceloft®

Spaceloft was once the gold standard for building insulation, particularly in space-restricted areas. Although production has been discontinued, it remains a highly sought-after product due to its exceptional performance in building envelope applications. Spaceloft offers:

• Extremely low thermal conductivity, making it perfect for high-performance buildings.
• Thin and flexible material, ideal for tight spaces and reducing thermal bridging.

For projects still specifying Spaceloft, we recommend ArmaGel HT as an excellent alternative, providing similar insulation performance and versatility.

ArmaGel HT for Building Envelopes

While ArmaGel HT was originally designed for high-heat industrial applications, it also offers excellent performance in building envelope systems. Benefits include:

• Outstanding thermal properties, perfect for minimizing heat loss in buildings.
• Flexibility and ease of installation in space-restricted areas.

ArmaGel HT can be an ideal solution for architects and contractors seeking a high-performance aerogel insulation product for modern, energy-efficient buildings.

Slentex® Class A Insulation

Slentex is another high-performance aerogel insulation product that was discontinued but remains specified in many architectural projects. Known for its:

• Excellent fire-resistant properties (Class A rating).
• Thin and flexible design, making it suitable for space-constrained building applications.

For those seeking a replacement for Slentex, we recommend ArmaGel HT as a viable alternative to meet project specifications while maintaining top-tier thermal performance.
