Supaphen: High-Performance Phenolic Pipe Insulation

Supaphen is a high-performance phenolic thermal pipe insulation for lagging chilled, cold, hot, and heating pipework. It is highly thermally efficient with an independently tested K value (thermal conductivity) of 0.025 W/m·K at 10ºC mean temperature. It has zero ozone depletion potential (ODP) and is a closed cell, resisting moisture ingress. It is fire and smoke-safe and has been independently tested at Exova Warrington Fire in the UK as a pipe section to the required standard EN13501-1, achieving a rating of BL s1 d0.  

Supaphen is manufactured as a rigid block at a standard density of 40kg/m3. It is manufactured with a silicate solution, which is introduced at the foam manufacturing stage. This unique feature ensures the bore coating is present not only at the pipe/insulation interface but throughout the product, making it effective after the product is cut for elbows, fittings and welded joints. Additionally, in line with the NES Y50 specification, the inner bore of Supaphen pipe sections is treated with a factory-applied dust-suppressing passivating bore coating solution.  

Supaphen is factory-applied with a plain Class 0 aluminium foil vapour barrier. Other facings are available on request. It is also available in higher densities to manufacture load-bearing thermally insulating pipe supports.

Supaphen is an excellent choice for a wide range of applications, including:

• Chilled water systems
• Hot water systems
• Heating systems
• Process pipework
• Air conditioning ducts
• Refrigeration lines

Supaphen is available in various sizes and thicknesses to meet your specific needs. It is also easy to install and maintain.
