Condensation and ice formation occurs when the temperature in the pipes is lower than the ambient temperature. To prevent this, cold insulation is applied. We calculate the thickness of the required insulation layer for you, so that the temperature of the outer surface never falls below the dew point. In addition to preventing condensation, good cold insulation saves you a lot of energy. The correct insulation thickness has a significant influence on the speed with which you earn back the investment made and achieve a return.
FCG is not only your partner in cold insulation, we are also in good hands with the installation of insulation panels for the construction of cold stores and cold stores. We work together with recognized panel suppliers, which means that we can supply a total package in the field of anti-condensation insulation and cold insulation.
In times of sustainability and alternative fuels, LNG is a remarkable development.
During the liquefaction of LNG, extremely low temperatures must be reached, down to -164°C. While clients are generally well equipped to handle this process, most insulation companies struggle with this challenging temperature range. In the past, we have insulated the piping of the first LNG bunker inland vessel, as well as successfully providing effective insulation systems for other industrial LNG applications. These projects required extremely strict attention to detail to prevent moisture ingress and ice formation.
After successfully completing several projects, we evaluated them extensively with the entire project team and documented the findings in detail. This ultimately resulted in a unique document that has evolved into a comprehensive guideline for insulating such applications. Because our support staff closely followed the projects through frequent site visits, a strong link between design and execution was established. In short, we possess unique experience that can be seamlessly applied to similar projects.
You will find us nationally and internationally and in maritime, industrial and utility sectors. Sometimes we prepare everything in the Netherlands and send the insulation materials as a package, so that our client can install the insulation on site. Other times we take care of the entire process, from advice to finishing, anywhere in the world. Contact us to discuss the best solution.
