Industrial Insulation and Environmental Issues in Automotive Industries

Industrial Insulation and Environmental Issues in Automotive Industries

There is no escaping the fact that there are significant environmental issues in the automotive industry, with road transport still a major cause of greenhouse gas emissions, producing around 15% of CO2 emissions in the EU. One of the ways vehicle manufacturers can help bring these emissions down is through the application of industrial insulation. Elmelin supports the automotive industry and vehicle manufacturers and, in so doing, helps environmental protection through contributing to efficiency and excellence in performance.

High temperature insulation touches people’s everyday lives. While we serve specialist sectors and industries, such as foundry and steel, automotive and aerospace, we also provide insulation solutions for products that are part of the fabric of how we live today. These products include fan-assisted and convection heaters, microwave ovens, toasters, hairdryers and other white goods.

Correct Industrial Insulation: The Environmental Benefits

Correct Industrial Insulation: The Environmental Benefits

5 June 2018 is World Environment Day, and while this year’s theme is Beat Plastic Pollution, there are other, critical areas of activity where industries, businesses and organisations can make a difference to the world around us. One of these is industrial insulation.

 

Industrial insulation is wide-ranging, applied to different sectors in a variety of settings, and here, at Elmelin, we play a key role in supplying high temperature insulation solutions.

 

These involve mica and mica-based products, and microporous materials and a multi-faceted approach to their application.

Here we look at the general importance of insulation in helping to combat climate change, and how industrial application works in practice in certain key industries.

Insulation For Transportation

Insulation For Transportation

Whether by surface or air, transport relies on high temperature insulation for safety and efficiency. Insulation benefits for transportation include heat shields, battery insulation, fire protection and insulation for data recorders.

Elmelin supports the aerospace and automotive industries, alongside other specialised transportation sectors, including the military. Our high temperature insulation solutions provide assurance and ensure safety in situations where extreme conditions are frequently a normal operating environment.

What is Mica?

What is Mica?

What is mica? Whilst it may not be immediately familiar to many, it is a widely-used mineral in many industrial processes and different products. There are various mica properties that make it versatile for multiple uses. Due to its high thermal resistance, it is an excellent industrial insulation material. It offers resistance to electricity, light and moisture, making it ideal for a range of applications across different sectors.

A significant aspect of human history and progress is the story of how we have harnessed and channelled what the natural world can offer us. This includes industrial minerals such as mica.

As high temperature insulation specialists, we manufacture different mica-based products, including mica roll and mica sheets, and we use it in various thermal management solutions and other industrial insulation applications.
