Crossroads C&I distributes the most extensive range of industrial pipe and vessel insulation materials in Canada, and they come in a large variety of forms which fall into one of the following categories:
Mineral Wool
Mineral wools, including rock and slag wools, are inorganic strands of mineral fibre bonded together using organic binders. Mineral wool pipe insulation provides excellent thermal insulation performance for mechanical/power and process piping systems operating from sub-ambient to 1200°F (650°C). Mineral wools are used on all types of pipe and vessel work – particularly industrial pipe and vessel work operating at higher temperatures. Applications focused on thermal performance with a lightweight, easy to install insulation are well served with Crossroads C&I Mineral Wool. Available in a breadth of shapes and sizes, this product assortment can maximize control of processes while contributing to reduced operating costs and energy savings.
