Unifrax provides a range of solutions for cryogenic applications where
weight and cost savings are crucial. Our C-Glass microfibers are
engineered for wetlaid nonwovens producers to use as a raw material
for the manufacturing of cryogenic insulation products. Our binder free
cryogenic glass mat products provide tank manufacturers multiple
options to reduce weight, and cost, in vacuum cooled environments
where temperatures approach absolute zero.
GENERAL CHARACTERISTICS
