A closer look at saving energy and costs

Insulation for process industry

There is a need to reduce the negative climate impact and save energy in industrial plants and facilities – PAROC has the solutions.

Industrial production accounts for a large part of greenhouse gas emissions and overall energy use. Insufficient insulation causes significant energy leakage and emissions. By ensuring that the processes are isolated in the best possible way, both efficiency and performance can increase while costs are lowered. The lowest possible energy consumption and maximum effective service life of the plant are very valuable advantages if the equipment is provided with the right insulation. More efficient use of energy also contributes to a reduced impact on the climate and the environment and a safer energy supply.

Water Repellent Products

Market-leading water absorption properties for stone wool insulation.

Low water absorption is a very important property, since most industrial insulation solutions are at risk of being exposed to water, high humidity or other liquids. Dry insulation always performs better than wet insulation. Water in the insulation material will dramatically decrease performance and add weight to the insulation, in addition to increasing the risk of generating a corrosive environment at the surface of the insulated equipment.

Corrosion is accelerated by the duration of any wetness, therefore protection against water trapped under or in the insulation material itself becomes a function of time. In other words: Less water and faster dry-out = less corrosion PAROC WR Pipe Sections are tested at independent laboratories
according to European (EN), British (BS) and American (ASTM) standards.

A solution to prevent corrosion

A key to protecting insulated metal surfaces from exposure to moisture and other harmful substances is to use highly water-repellent, non-hygroscopic, chemically robust and durable insulation material.

How can the Process Industry contribute to reduce the negative climate impact - and at the same time save money? Fortunately, there is a simple solution to the problem. In the movie we tell more!
