Clad thermal insulation of a tank and pipes in an engine room

Thermal and cold insulation

We provide insulation of turbines, boilers, CK tanks, devices, piping, flues, HVAC distribution (heating, cooling), mainly in the energy and chemical industries.

Economic handling of energy saves the natural resources, influences the emission decrease of harmful substances and thus reduces environmental pollution.

Thermal insulation acts in this process as an important factor. Heat and cold insulations represent an important part of technical equipment which operates with temperatures differing from ambient temperatures.

BAUCOMEX CZ, s.r.o. carries out insulations of

  • turbines incl. accessories – spray insulations and sewn blankets
  • boilers incl. accessories
  • CK tanks, tanks and accessories
  • overhead piping systems, pipe bridges etc.
  • underground distribution systems, heating flues, collectors etc.
  • long-distance steam piping
  • air-conditioning equipment and air ducts
  • central heating and sanitary distribution systems
  • special insulations e.g. ship and cabin insulation
  • attic and filling spaces
