High-Temperature Insulation

Advanced insulation systems engineered to withstand extreme temperatures, protect critical processes, and improve energy efficiency in high-heat industrial environments.

High-Temperature Insulation

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 (AlO) 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.
