Our Technology

Long “chains” of SAS particles help to keep

solid heat conduction to a minimum.

Microporous insulation is based on nano-structured sub-micron synthetic amorphous silica („SAS“) and other environmentally safe materials.

solid heat conduction to a minimum.

Spaces in the structure smaller than the mean

free path of an air molecule eliminate most of

the gaseous heat conduction.
