Product Description

APPLICATION

Manson Insulation fiberglass pipe insulation is intended as a thermal insulation for hot and cold service piping. Typical uses include domestic hot and cold water, hot water heating, high temperature, dual temperature, steam, condensate and refrigerated lines. As a component of a suitable insulation system, plain ALLEY-K Pipe Insulation may be used for light industrial applications, while ALLEY-K with ASJ jacket may be used for commercial and institutional usage.

SUSTAINABILITY

Manson Insulation products with ECOSE Technology are made using our patented, bio-based binder – a smarter alternative to the phenol/formaldehyde (PF) binder traditionally used in fiberglass products. The bio-based binder holds our product together and gives the product its unique appearance.

All of our products are formaldehyde-free and made from sustainable resources , such as recycled glass and sand. And we’re proud to be putting glass bottles back to work rather than into landfills. Our products are made with a minimum of 50% recycled glass—totaling an average of 26 million bottles each month.
