T-FIT® Hygiene: Insulation tailored for FMCG production processes

T-FIT insulation products are designed for long-term performance and can last over 20 years, depending on the application and maintenance conditions.

T-FIT® insulation has an ultra slim profile, making it ideal for complex pipe runs. It can be supplied in different thicknesses, depending on the specific product variant and application. The T-FIT Hygiene insulation, for example, is available in 6.35mm and 12.7mm thicknesses​​​​.

Yes, T-FIT Insulation is highly effective at preventing condensation. Its hydrophobic properties ensure that surfaces remain dry, significantly reducing the risk of water damage and microbial growth. This helps maintain a safe, dry, and hygienic environment, crucial for food and beverage operations.

T-FIT products are manufactured using high-quality, closed-cell foam materials that significantly reduce the risk of outgassing. This ensures that they maintain a clean environment, critical for sensitive applications such as semiconductor and biopharma industries.

No, T-FIT insulation is resistant to microbial and fungal growth, thanks to its closed-cell structure and material composition.

The maximum service temperature for T-FIT insulation products can be as high as 160°C (320°F), depending on the specific product and application requirements.

The lowest service temperature for T-FIT insulation products can be as low as -80°C (-112°F), depending on the specific product and application requirements.

The line temperature after insulation with T-FIT products depends on the specific application and environmental conditions. However, T-FIT insulation is designed to maintain stable temperatures, significantly reducing heat loss and energy consumption.

No, T-FIT insulation does not require an outer cladding for most applications as it is inherently durable and resistant to external damage. However, cladding can be provided for additional protection if required.

Yes, T-FIT insulation products are certified by various third-party organizations for performance, safety, and compliance with industry standards.

While the initial cost of T-FIT insulation might be higher than more traditionally used materials, the lifespan of the product is far superior. Meaning the long-term savings in energy costs, maintenance, and durability make it a more cost-effective solution over the product’s lifespan.

Crosslinking is a process where polymer chains are chemically bonded to form a three-dimensional network. This enhances the material’s mechanical properties, making it more durable, stable, and resistant to heat and chemicals. For T-FIT products, crosslinking ensures superior performance and longevity in demanding industrial environments.

The thermal conductivity of T-FIT insulation products is very low. At a mean temperature of 0 °C (32 °F), the thermal conductivity is 0.0314 W/m.K (0.22 Btu.in/h.ft2 °F), providing excellent thermal insulation performance.

PVDF (Polyvinylidene fluoride) is a high-performance thermoplastic known for its excellent chemical resistance, mechanical strength, and stability. It is often used in applications requiring high purity and resistance to aggressive chemicals.

Closed cell insulation has tightly packed cells that provide better thermal resistance, moisture barrier, and structural integrity compared to open cell insulation, which has interconnected cells that are less effective at blocking heat and moisture.

Yes, T-FIT insulation products are made from closed-cell foam, which provides superior thermal insulation, moisture resistance, and mechanical strength.
