Every successful marine insulation starts with the right product. However, it must be well-applied to ensure maximal performance and long-term efficiency. That’s why, through expert guidance, we work closely with our partners to guarantee seamless application, optimal performance, and long-term efficiency. Our recent collaboration with Johnson Controls for MSC Cruises’ new build showcases to this commitment.

Applying Marine Insulation with Expertise and Support
Delivering exceptional results means more than just providing top-quality insulation products. It’s about trust, partnership, and support. When you collaborate with us, you gain access not only to industry-leading insulation solutions, hands-on expertise and tailored training. Together, we create outstanding projects that set new standards in the maritime industry.
Building Success on a Strong Foundation
Hands-On Training for Seamless Execution
In January, our marine insulation expert Ton van Soest partnered with Nord Loire Isolation at Johnson Controls’ Carquefou facility in France to provide an intensive two-day training session. The goal? To ensure flawless application of ThermaSmart® Marine 2.0 Black on one of five chillers, setting the standard for the entire project.
This hands-on approach gave the skilled Nord Loire Isolation team the opportunity to refine their techniques and master the marine insulation application. With expert guidance, they were able to improve efficiency and ensured flawless execution throughout project.
The Importance of Chiller Pre-Insulation in Shipbuilding
Pre-insulation plays a crucial role in the marine sector. By protecting essential chiller equipment during construction, transportation, and installation, ThermaSmart® Marine 2.0 delivers superior insulation benefits, including:
- Unmatched durability – provides robust protection against transport and handling damage.
- Integrated vapour barrier – maintains its effectiveness even if the outer layer is impacted.
- Prevention of condensation and corrosion – ideal for air conditioning and refrigeration systems.
- High tear and compression resistance – withstands the toughest maritime conditions.
These factors are essential in modern shipbuilding. By combining premium insulation materials with expert training, we help shipbuilders and shipyards, such as FINCANTIERI, streamline marine installations. Additionally, ThermaSmart® Marine 2.0 maximises the long-term efficiency and reliability of critical onboard systems.
Strengthening Partnerships, Delivering Results
This project shows what’s possible when trust and collaboration come together. We are proud to provide not only innovative insulation solutions but also the expertise and support needed for exceptional results. We extend our thanks to partners Johnson Controls, Nord Loire Isolation, and MSC Cruises for their trust in our solutions and our team.
