High-Temperature Insulation
Advanced insulation systems engineered to withstand extreme temperatures, protect critical processes, and improve energy efficiency in high-heat industrial environments.
Why High-Temperature Insulation Is Critical
High-temperature industrial processes operate under extreme thermal stress, where uncontrolled heat loss, equipment damage, or insulation failure can lead to energy inefficiency, safety risks, and costly downtime.
High-temperature insulation systems are essential to protect equipment, maintain stable operating conditions, and ensure long-term process reliability in environments exceeding conventional insulation limits.
Protects equipment under extreme heat exposure
Reduces energy loss and operating costs
Improves process stability and safety
Enables compliance with industrial and safety standards
Wedge High-Temperature Insulation Solutions
Wedge Alumina Insulating Fire Board is a type of high-temperature, lightweight refractory brick made using insulated alumina—a form of alumina (Al₂O₃) that contains hollow, spherical bubbles. These bricks are used in extreme-temperature environments where low thermal conductivity, high purity, and excellent thermal shock resistance are essential.
Wedge designs and manufactures high-temperature insulation systems capable of operating at temperatures up to 1800 °C, tailored for demanding industrial and energy applications.
Our solutions integrate advanced materials such as ceramic fibers, microporous insulation, zirconia-based systems, calcium silicate boards, and composite structures to deliver reliable performance under continuous and cyclic thermal loads.
