INSULATION BLANKETS

Thermal Ceramic Fiber Blankets Developed for Efficiency and Sustainability

NUTEC Thermal Insulation Blankets Portfolio

High temperature needled blankets of different chemistries, thicknesses, densities and temperature ratings, designed to reduce energy consumption, improve thermal process performance and fire protection characteristics.

NUTEC Insulation fiber blankets are easy to install, require no curing or dry out time. Rapid heat-up can be achieved with all fiber blankets; they will not crack or spall and are thermal shock resistant. These products save energy, reduce heat loss and heat storage versus other hard refractory products.

MaxWool® Refractory Ceramic Fiber Blankets

MaxWool® 2300

High-temperature insulation blanket composed of long, flexible, interwoven fibers manufactured by the spun process of high purity ceramic fibers.
