Isover Crimp Wrap
Thermal insulation for storage vessels, tanks, pipes and ducts
'Isover Crimp Wrap is a flexible glass mineral wool mat, with increased compression resistance.
The unique variably orientated fibres provide compression resistant qualities normally found in dense mineral wool slab products, but the product remains flexible enough to wrap around curved walls of vessels. The product is supplied in roll form and is faced with a strong reinforced aluminium foil.
The use of Isover Crimp Wrap eliminates the potential for wastage caused by strip delamination during fabrication and installation normally associated with lamella mats. In addition, ISOVER Crimp Wrap offers up to 24% superior thermal performance compared to lamella products.'
