Successful Installations on Diamond Princess and Pacific Adventure
One of the standout projects in our partnership with Tecnavi, was the insulation upgrade aboard the Diamond Princess, completed during dry dock (DD) in Singapore. Known for its challenging weather conditions, the project required meticulous planning and execution.
Following this success, we continued our work on the previously-owned by Princess Cruises Pacific Adventure (renamed as Carnival Adventure in 2025). This project involved replacing almost 2000 meters of provision line insulation within eight days – a remarkable achievement that required seamless coordination between our teams. Thanks to the expertise of our onboard specialists and the trust of Carnival Australia, the project was completed on time, ensuring the cold rooms were back in service with perfect timing.
Energy Efficiency and Sustainability at the Core
Beyond just insulation upgrades, our projects also include dehumidification system installations for cold room deck interspaces. This initiative ensures optimal operating conditions, minimises cooling loss, and enhances energy efficiency. By reducing condensation issues, with the closed cell structure and integrated vapour barrier, we contribute to improved system longevity, helping shipowners optimise operational performance while adhering to sustainability goals.
At Thermaflex, we take pride in playing a key role in shaping a more energy-efficient and environmentally responsible maritime industry. By choosing ThermaSmart Marine 2.0 halogen-free, high-quality Polyolefin Elastomer insulation foam, our partners benefit from top-tier insulation performance while supporting a circular economy.
Looking Ahead
With every project, our collaborations with the installers get stronger, we are moving towards the way for more innovative solutions in the maritime sector. We extend our gratitude to Tecnavi, the ship crews, and our resolute onboard team for their exceptional work and commitment on Diamond Princess and Carnival Adventure.
As we continue our voyage, we remain steadfast in our mission to deliver sustainable and high-performance insulation solutions for the industry’s most demanding applications. Here is to many more successful projects ahead!
