Industrial Insulation Engineering
We redefine the boundaries of thermal control by combining over 20 years of deep field experience with academic engineering discipline.
From pipeline systems to nuclear reactor insulation, from the complex cryogenic requirements of satellite launch vehicles to vacuum + MLI solutions — we master the laws of physics at every scale. We engineer the complexity of heat transfer in full compliance with ASTM and EN standards.
About / Engineering & Design
ERATHERM İzolasyon A.Ş. is an engineering firm that has been pushing the boundaries of industrial insulation and thermal management for over 20 years, delivering turnkey solutions on a global scale. We serve across every scale and temperature regime — from thermal, gas-fired and nuclear power plants to petrochemical and cement facilities; from defence industry platforms to the cryogenic systems of satellite launch vehicles.
In our view, insulation is not a cladding operation — it is a precise engineering discipline grounded in the three fundamental laws of thermodynamics: conduction, convection, and radiation. This perspective ensures that every system we design maintains its performance not only today, but throughout its entire planned lifecycle.
From Small Pipes to Satellite Launch Vehicles
ERATHERM engineering teams develop solutions across a broad spectrum — from small-bore precision pipelines to massive industrial boilers, from Small Modular Reactors (SMR) to the vacuum-limited cryogenic systems required by satellite launch vehicles. UAV/UCAV thermal test chambers, infrared signature suppression systems and outgassing-free space-grade materials are also among our areas of expertise.
Our engineering package covers detailed thermal calculations, insulation thickness and support structure analyses, technical specification preparation, and field-ready application detail drawings (Shop Drawings).
Industrial Insulation Services
As ERATHERM, we specialise in state-of-the-art thermal insulation solutions for industrial facilities including oil & gas plants, power stations, refineries, mineral processing facilities, MDF production plants and airport projects. Operating across Turkey, Europe, Africa and the Americas, we deliver advanced insulation services that enhance energy efficiency, optimise system performance and ensure operational safety.
Thermal Insulation Engineering Services
Thermal insulation engineering requires the simultaneous evaluation of dozens of variables — from operating temperature and ambient conditions to chemical compatibility and mechanical load.
The ERATHERM engineering team produces project-specific heat loss calculations, condensation risk analyses and thermal expansion compensation designs based on international standards including ASTM C680, EN ISO 12241 and NACE SP0198. Technical specifications, shop drawings and full documentation support are provided at every scale — from small-bore pipe systems to SMR nuclear reactors, cryogenic LNG lines to defence industry thermal test infrastructure.
Industrial Insulation Application
Pipeline, valve, tank and equipment insulation in industrial facilities is a critical engineering decision not only for energy savings, but also for operational continuity and long-term asset protection.
ERATHERM designs and applies bespoke thermal insulation solutions tailored to the operating conditions and physical environment of each system — from high-temperature steam lines to cold-water and process pipelines. These systems, which simultaneously meet thermal efficiency, CUI prevention, personnel protection and longevity criteria, are delivered with comprehensive engineering support from material specification through to field application.
Steam & Gas Turbine Insulation
Steam and gas turbines represent one of the most demanding applications in insulation engineering in terms of high temperature, vibration and thermal cycling.
ERATHERM produces full engineering solutions for turbine casings, steam inlet/outlet lines and connecting equipment — supported by operating-condition-specific heat loss calculations, material compatibility analyses and thermal expansion compensation designs. ERATHERM is a leading specialist in jacket-type and spray insulation application. These solutions, backed by professional engineering calculations, material specifications and field-ready application details, minimise maintenance costs.
From Facility Installation to Maintenance: End-to-End Insulation Solutions
Every industrial facility's lifecycle consists of installation, operation, maintenance and shutdown phases. As ERATHERM, we are the leading insulation engineering firm capable of delivering solutions across all these phases under one roof.
New Facility Installation Insulation Services
Insulation engineering carried out during the construction of a new industrial facility is a strategic step that directly impacts the future efficiency, safety and energy management of the operation.
Throughout this process, we do not simply apply insulation — we take full ownership of the project end-to-end, from design and material selection to thermal analyses and field testing.
Maintenance & Repair
The maintenance and repair of insulation systems in industrial facilities is a critical engineering service for uninterrupted operation, energy efficiency and long-term asset protection.
We deliver long-term maintenance and repair insulation services across dozens of large-scale projects in Turkey and Europe — including power plants, refineries, petrochemical and cement facilities. Whether planned or emergency intervention, the entire process is managed under one roof.
Planned Shutdown / Turnaround
Planned shutdown periods represent the most critical operational window of the year for industrial facilities. The complete inspection of all insulation systems, rapid renewal of damaged sections and commissioning of new components before production is halted form the core requirements of this process.
ERATHERM takes full ownership of the insulation engineering dimension of turnaround planning from start to finish, enabling the facility to return to production as quickly and safely as possible.
