Description
A flexible Aerogel blanket insulation provides exceptional passive fire protection and superior thermal performance in an easy to install, lightweight format. I addition to maintaining a constant temperature, the Pyrogel is hydrophobic and breathable, thus allowing any covered material to maintain a constant environment even in moist, hot, or cold conditions. The flexible jacket are easily installed and jacketed. They are also reusable.
