Classed as a Super Insulation, Aerogel has the highest insulation value of any known material with the lowest thermal conductivity value of any solid (0.015W/mK). Available in easy to use solutions for applications in all sectors including building and construction, refurbishments and energy efficiency retrofits. The thinnest and easiest solution to insulate hard to treat areas, especially where space is at a premium and where critical tolerances have to be achieved. A thermal bridge (sometimes referred to as thermal bridging, a cold bridge or thermal bypass) describes a situation in a building where there is a direct connection between the inside and outside through one or more elements that are more thermally conductive than the rest of the building envelope. All types of thermal bridging or cold bridging can be eliminated with our super thin, super insulation properties of Thermablok Aerogel to save valuable space. Within historic, period and listed buildings with architectural detailing, it offers a solution for an otherwise impossible area to insulate, with minimum effect on character. Thermablok Aerogel works by breaking this thermal bridging link whilst being totally breathable, ensuring a healthy, durable working building with a natural ability to repel liquid (hydrophobicity) whilst allowing the passage and release of moisture vapour and does not rely on a vacuum or heavy molecular gases to insulate. Thermablok Aerogel, being hydrophobic, is not affected by moisture or age, and provides major energy savings for the life of the building. A single 10mm thickness of Thermablok Aerogel Insulation Blanket increases the insulation factor of a standard solid wall construction by up to 67% (guidance only as dependant of actual substrate on to which attached).

Read More »The main and only drawback of a cold storage system is that not all types of products are suitable. When freezing a food its nutritional values are not lost, both the nutrients and the minerals and vitamins that are present in the same fresh variety are maintained.
What happens if the cold chain is broken? How does it affect our health and that of our customers if we suffer a break in the cold chain in our establishment? How can we detect that this has happened? What are the disadvantages of cold storage? Let’s find the answer to all of these questions. The cold chain is a conservation system that is made up of different stages that guarantee that a frozen or refrigerated product will not lose any of its properties in the distribution circuit, reaching the final consumer in perfect conditions. Each food maintains its cold chain at a certain temperature, which guarantees that no virus or microbe damages the product that we are preserving. Therefore, when we put food in the freezer, we must make sure that nothing interrupts this process. The cold chain must be maintained during four phases: production, storage, transport, and sale.
