Cryogel® Z is a top choice in cold conservation because it offers protection against cold splash, jet fire, as well as acoustic attenuation in an ultrathin and lightweight package. Unlike traditional cryogenic insulation, Cryogel® Z aerogel insulation is easy-to install and can be used throughout a facility due to its flexible blanket format. Available in two thicknesses, Cryogel® Z incorporates an integral vapor barrier with zero water vapor permeance to ensure maximum asset protection. Most of the largest petrochemical facilities in the world entrust Cryogel Z insulation to protect their assets and ensure smooth operations. Cryogel® Z has also been specified in nearly 50 major LNG liquefaction and regasification projects.

- Streamline logistics - a single roll of Cryogel® Z can be used on vessels and pipes of various sizes which can significantly reduce the costs of material handling and inventory management
- Boost labor productivity - Cryogel® Z installs 30% faster than rigid insulations, this increased coverage per man-hour can lead to significant savings in labor resources
- Increase energy savings - Cryogel® Z has the lowest available thermal conductivity among industrial insulation, which can equal up to 50% less heat gain and boil off
- Reduce material waste - Cryogel® Z flexible format means zero breakage during transport and minimal waste, it also reduces sensitivity to damage during prefabrication and modular installs
- Improve operational stability - Cryogel® Z does not require the use of contraction joints, which saves time, money and eliminates a potential point of insulation failure
- Cut construction costs - Cryogel® Z is lightweight and ultrathin, allowing for a possible reduction in rack density and footprint during new construction
- Smaller pipe racks and less structural weight may reduce steel and associated costs for beams, columns and footings
- Simplify maintenance - Cryogel® Z blankets are removable and reusable, allowing for easy inspections without the added expense of replacing the material
- Extremely low thermal conductivity (K-value) enables thinner designs for improved space efficiency
- Integrated vapor retarder provides redundant protection in an easy-to-install package
- Eliminates the need for contraction joints reducing cost and complexity
- Durable and flexible even at cryogenic temperatures
- Robust performance during construction, transport and operations makes it suitable for pre-insulation and modular builds
- Proven in global LNG liquefaction and regasification facilities
- Thermal, acoustic, jet-fire, pool fire and cryogenic spill protection in a single system
