Metal jacketing or plastic? Here are a few of the different applications for these unique materials: http://www.westcalinsulation.com/insulation-jacketing-prot/

When soundproofing your facility, look for materials that have both thermal and acoustical insulation properties! http://www.westcalinsulation.com/acoustical-insulation-sol/

Vibrations in your equipment are often the culprit of ongoing ambient noise. Here is a solution to easily reduce all the clanging: http://www.westcalinsulation.com/acoustical-insulation-sol/

Chemical processing plants, water treatment facilities, manufacturing companies, and more all depend on pipes and tubing to function. This is how jacketing helps keep those pipes in good working order: http://www.westcalinsulation.com/insulation-jacketing-prot/

In this week’s article, we are going to explore why insulation jacketing is so important in industrial applications, as well as what types are available on the market today. Check it out here: http://www.westcalinsulation.com/insulation-jacketing-prot/

Loud noises can cause hearing loss and serious safety concerns. Here’s how insulation can help prevent these problems: http://www.westcalinsulation.com/acoustical-insulation-sol/

High-performance pipe insulation works to provide thermal insulation, thereby improving energy efficiency, and cutting CO2 emissions. Here’s how to keep it protected: http://www.westcalinsulation.com/insulation-jacketing-prot/

In an industrial or commercial application, excess noise can have detrimental consequences. Acoustical insulation can control sound levels and help mitigate any sound-related issues. Check out our latest article to learn more: http://www.westcalinsulation.com/acoustical-insulation-sol/

Here’s why professionals need to be familiar with more than just the basics of insulatory properties when planning out your facility’s mechanical insulation: http://www.westcalinsulation.com/why-thickness-is-importan/

Insulation experts should be familiar with VOCs and the regulations surrounding them before choosing specific insulation materials for an indoor application. We explain why in our latest article: http://www.westcalinsulation.com/considerations-in-mechani/

Thermal conductivity is an important value when determining thermal resistance. Here’s how the experts determine these values and figure out which insulation is right for you: http://www.westcalinsulation.com/why-thickness-is-importan/

One of the less obvious insulation design considerations has to do with volatile organic compounds or VOCs. Learn more here: http://www.westcalinsulation.com/considerations-in-mechani/

Here’s why insulations with higher R-values are sought after for mechanical insulation: http://www.westcalinsulation.com/why-thickness-is-importan/

In industrial applications, mechanical insulation is often prone to abuse from equipment, machinery, or even personnel. This is how installers design around mechanical damage: http://www.westcalinsulation.com/considerations-in-mechani/

In this week’s article we are going to explore why thicker materials effectively reduce heat transfer and what that means for mechanical insulation. Check it out here: http://www.westcalinsulation.com/why-thickness-is-importan/

Regardless of the application, there are some considerations that every professional must be aware of when designing mechanical insulation: http://www.westcalinsulation.com/considerations-in-mechani/
