High-quality thermal insulation often forms the basis for complex technical processes and applications in industry. It limits heat and cold loss and minimises temperature reduction when goods are being transported. This saves both natural resources and costs.

In order to solve these tasks, KAEFER's ongoing research and development work in these areas puts us one step ahead of the competition. Technical skills, specialized knowledge and a comprehensive understanding of the fundamental physical attributes are essential.

Areas of application for heat insulation are refineries, the chemical industry, the heavy oil industry, power production, food processing, the pulp and paper industries, heating, ventilation and air conditioning systems.

Cold insulation comes into play in LNG and ethylene plants, cryogenic storage, CO2 plants, gas liquefaction plants, piping vessels and tanks.
