Mechanical Insulation
As one of the nation’s highly experienced industrial and commercial insulation contractors, CD Specialty Contractors understands the challenges and constraints construction contractors, project managers, and plant engineers face in addressing the complexities of protecting today’s sophisticated mechanical systems efficiently and cost-effectively. We ensure high-quality energy loss prevention using virtually all type of insulation and have over 20 years of experience on complex projects involving refineries, petrochemical, power plants, manufacturing, food processing, mines, renewable energy sites, chemical, pharmaceutical, and biotechnical facilities.
Mechanical insulation is not a one-size-fits-all proposition, and specialized expertise is required to select and install the right type of insulation for each system and its particular operating environment. Pipes carrying hot, chilled, or corrosive liquids, for example, all require highly advanced insulation materials. A high-temperature pipe system will place very different demands on an insulation product than a cryogenic system, and we bring our know-how to insulation challenges of all types.
Our removable insulation blankets and pads are custom designed and fabricated to allow easy access to regularly serviceable items, such as valves, flanges, heat exchangers, pumps, and turbines. Our insulation blankets and pads are fabricated from high-quality outer cloths, insulation materials, and closure systems to protect against the harshest environments.
In addition to easy access, our blankets and pads conserve energy, provide personal protection, and help ensure process efficiency.
Whether your insulation project involves a commercial application such as a school, shopping center, or hospital; an interior or exterior installation in a protected below-ground enclosure or on an exposed rooftop; or a custom thermal energy-conservation industrial application, we can deliver the technology that meets your needs.
We will work with you from the planning stages of your project to make sure you select the appropriate insulation material for each system, whether it’s calcium silicate, spray foam, fiberglass, installed or removable custom fabric blankets, or other technology, and help you evaluate the costs, benefits, and ROI of each option.
