Manufacturing environments are unforgiving. Equipment operates under relentless heat, conveyor belts endure constant abrasion, and industrial insulation materials break down over time. Standard textiles, even those reinforced with synthetic fibers, degrade too quickly when exposed to extreme conditions. This leads to frequent maintenance, operational inefficiencies, and rising costs. Textile ceramic coatings provide a solution by [...]

Originally published on 06/30/22. This article has been updated with the latest information on removable insulation blankets. In industrial environments where high-temperature processes are the norm, effective thermal insulation is essential not only for operational efficiency but also for safety, compliance, and sustainability. Removable insulation blankets—also referred to as removable insulation jackets, thermal insulation covers, [...]

Originally published on 03/15/2018. This article has been updated with the latest information on thermal insulation materials. High temperatures challenge performance in sectors like manufacturing, energy, and aerospace. Without proper insulation, heat moves through systems, reducing efficiency and increasing emissions. Engineers use thermal insulation materials to manage this risk. These materials reduce conduction, limit convection, [...]

Managing extreme heat in industrial environments isn’t just a technical challenge. It’s a balancing act between efficiency, safety, and reliability. Thermal insulation systems must handle intense temperatures, minimize energy loss, and withstand demanding conditions without compromising performance. Achieving all this requires more than standard materials—it takes innovation and precision engineering. That’s where CERMEX® thermal insulation [...]

In industrial environments, precise thermal management is more than a convenience—it’s a necessity. Proper insulation drives efficiency, reduces costs, and safeguards both equipment and personnel. To meet these challenges, industrial thermal insulation systems rely on materials that deliver consistent performance under extreme conditions. CERMEX® Thermal Insulation Mats from Mid-Mountain Materials, Inc. stand out as industry [...]

Fire and heat hazards are constant concerns in industrial workplaces. Manufacturing plants, oil refineries, foundries, and power stations operate in high-risk environments where extreme temperatures, flammable materials, and heavy machinery produce dangerous conditions. Without the right safeguards, fires can spread rapidly, causing severe damage to equipment and infrastructure and endangering workers. While fire suppression systems [...]

In industrial operations, maintaining temperature control is critical to ensuring safety, reducing costs, and protecting valuable equipment. Whether your business involves high-heat processes or precision temperature management, the right thermal insulation materials are essential. Thermal insulation materials minimize energy loss, enhance operational efficiency, and produce safer working conditions, all while contributing to sustainability goals. At [...]

Industrial environments are prone to heat. Whether this heat is produced as an operational by-product or its actively utilized, for instance in manufacturing, metalworking, chemical processing or energy production, or to melt materials, it's important to make sure the heat is controlled to ensure equipment can work well and not experience overheating. Unfortunately, if industrial [...]

The difficult conditions of industrial environments are not ones to be taken lightly. Chemical exposure, mechanical stress, increased temperatures, pressure, and abrasive forces are all examples of the conditions that the materials placed within these locations must be able to endure. They need to possess the right attributes to deliver a reliable performance. Polyurethane (PU) [...]

An industrial setting cannot afford to suffer the consequences from the outbreak of a fire. So much is put at risk by not having fire safety measures in place to mitigate its effects. Employees could be harmed, equipment could be damaged, and legal issues could be imminent. Various fire safety measures can introduce fire safety [...]
