The Polymer Isolation Direction Plant of TECHNONICOL Corporation in Yurga began the production of segments and heat-insulating cylinders from extruded polystyrene foam intended for the thermal insulation of pipelines on the ground, underground, duct and channel-free gaskets. After reaching the planned modes of operation, the capacity of the equipment will be from 100,000 meters of production annually.

For most regions of Russia, especially the northern regions with difficult climatic conditions, the issue of insulation of communications is particularly acute. Pipeline insulation is a necessary measure that meets the trend of saving energy, fuel and energy resources.

Especially for this purpose, segments and insulating semi-cylinders from XPS TECHNONICOL were developed. They have a wide range of applications and are suitable for insulating water pipes, air ducts, gas pipelines, oil pipelines, pipelines.

The product line of segments and half-cylinders of XPS TECHNONICOL for pipe insulation includes two brands, one of the main differences in which is the compressive strength:

TECHNONICOL CARBON PROF PC (semi-cylinders) or C (segments) – recommended for thermal insulation of pipelines laid in any way other than channel-free.

TECHNONIKOL CARBON SOLID PC (semi-cylinders) or C (segments) – recommended for ductless laying of pipelines in the ground, where high compressive strength of thermal insulation material is required.

XPS TECHNONICOL has several advantages that allow you to cope with the tasks, even in difficult climatic conditions. Segments and heat-insulating cylinders from XPS TECHNONICOL have a low coefficient of thermal conductivity, almost zero water absorption and high compressive strength, thereby protecting the pipeline from mechanical damage and protect against heat loss. Even with the use of new products in the area, which is characterized by the presence of sharp rocky rocks, additional external protection (casing) of the pipeline is not required, including with underground channel-free laying. The use of heat-insulating cylinders and segments from XPS TECHNONICOL allows laying the pipeline deep in soils where only moisture-proof thermal insulation can be used.

“Energy Efficiency. – still remains one of the main trends in the construction industry. The “Polymer Insulation” direction of TECHNONICOL Corporation is systematically developing in the spirit of the times. One of the drivers of the XPS market in Russia is the growth in the construction of infrastructure and TDS facilities, ”said Alexey Kasimov, head of Polymer Isolation. – The launch of the production of segments and heat-insulating cylinders from extruded polystyrene foam was a response to the need for energy savings. Pipeline insulation today is a necessary measure that meets the high demands for energy efficiency. ”
