Insulation

Altrad Services is a global leader, with over 50 years’ experience, in the specification, development, installation and maintenance of hot, cold and acoustic insulation systems across multiple business sectors.

Insulation types include thermal, acoustic, cryogenic (including live line cryogenic), fire protection insulation, metallic / non-metallic cladding and sheet metal fabrication and asbestos management and removal. These can range from small-bore pipework in a traditional maintenance environment, to significant new build capital projects such as large Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) storage tanks.

Altrad Services is at the forefront of corrosion under insulation technology and have a wealth of experience in detecting and countering this major threat to asset integrity.

Our reputation for delivering excellence is earned by having provided a range of specialist services to more than half of the LNG export construction projects worldwide.

With increasing concern for efficiency, energy conservation and asset integrity, the cost effectiveness of insulation systems is becoming more and more important to asset owners.
