Product Description
BENEFITS
// Reduce installation cost
Cuts easily and conforms to shapes. Safeguard maximum operational efficiency and lower labour costs.
// Lower operational downtime
Product removal is made simple, reducing both downtime and the need to purchase replacement insulation during regular maintenance cycles.
// Superior thermal performance
Offering up to 2 times superior thermal performance versus like-for-like competing insulation products.
// Hydrophobic
Repels liquid water helping to mitigate corrosion under insulation.
// Ultra-thin and ultra-light
Equal thermal performance at a fraction of the thickness. Improved handling and easier transportation.
// Improved work safety
Proprietary low-dust technology.
// CUI defence
Hydrophobicity enhances
protection against corrosion under insulation (CUI).
// Acoustic performance
When used in a system configuration, ArmaGel XGC meets and exceeds the insertion loss classifications according to ISO 15665 at reduced thickness and/or weight*.
