Lloyd’s register type approved and MED-certified insulation meets international maritime safety standards.
INSULATION APPLICATION
MARINE
Maritime operations require insulation that maintains health, safety, and passenger comfort across cooling, refrigeration, ventilation, and air-conditioning systems operating under extreme temperatures and humidity. Whether aboard cruise ships, ferries, yachts, cargo vessels, fishing boats, submarines, river boats, icebreakers, or offshore platforms, early integration into ship design ensures continuous, efficient operation and long-term cost-effectiveness.
SYSTEM DESIGN
Engineered for Extreme Maritime Conditions
Marine cooling, refrigeration, ventilation, and air-conditioning systems operate under constant pressure and environmental stress. ThermaSmart® Marine premium closed-cell polyolefin foam laminated with aluminium black foil, combines exceptional mechanical strength with superior thermal performance. This engineered solution prevents condensation, eliminates corrosion-under-insulation (CUI) risks, inhibits fungal growth, and enhances fire safety. It offers glueless installation for tubes with heat joining technique, reducing adhesive usage and simplifying application in confined spaces. The combination of durability and space efficiency ensures rapid installation, reduced waste, and reliable system performance throughout the vessel’s operational life.
SAFETY & LONG-TERM RELIABILITY
Maximum Safety, Minimum Maintenance
The multi-layer construction of ThermaSmart® Marine provides mechanical damage resistance, vapour impermeability to prevent condensation, and antimicrobial properties that safeguard crew health and vessel integrity. These integrated features reduce maintenance frequency, extend system lifespan, and minimize energy consumption, delivering low total cost of ownership over the vessel’s operational life.
Fully certified with Lloyd’s Register (LR) Type Approval and EU RO Mutual Recognition, ThermaSmart® Marine ensures compliance with IMO SOLAS regulations and EU Regulation 391/2009. This certification validates reliable performance in the most demanding marine environments while supporting maritime environmental goals and protecting both crew and investment throughout decades of service.
