Unique fiber fleece insulation

The newly developed fibre fleece in-
sulation has up to 30 percent less
heat losses compared to conventio-
nal foam insulations. Fibre-fleece has
been used for several years in the
clothing industry and in the automoti-
ve industry. The material fits perfectly
to the shape of the storage tank due
to its special characteristics. Thus so-
called chimney effects are reduced.
Without the use of chemical additives
the insulating material is made of PET
bottles and is therefore 100 percent
recyclable.

The insulation is flame retardant

according to DIN 4102-1 class B2 and
is available on request also for B1.

Patented closure strips
The patented closure strips allow for
simple and quick opening of the outer
sheathing by only one person. Thus,
subsequent installations, service and
maintenance work can be carried out
easily and quickly. The aluminum clo-
sure strip provides a secure lock and
prevents an autonomous opening.

The H-shaped bars made of plastics

connect the single parts of the outer
PP sheating. The parts have barbs
(marked red in the picture on the right),
which secure them from slipping out
after fixing. No glue has to be used,
which preserves the environment.

Patented covering rosettes

The ECOTHERM self-developed co-
vering rosettes for connecting sleeves
ensure through their self-locking seat
for optimum sealing and prevent heat
losses at the connecting points.

The rosette is pushed over the con-

necting pipe. The patented barbs
(marked red in the pictures on the left)
prevent the rosette to loosen from its
position on the pipe.

ECOTHERM rosettes can be opened

and closed along its circumference.
Thus it is also possible to mount
the rosettes on the pipes of already
finished connections.

For unused connections, there are

optional caps, which help to minimize
heat losses.

PET bottles. The production entirely
passes on the use of chemical ad-
ditives. The fiber fleece insulation is
thus 100 percent recyclable.
