FYREWRAP SYSTEM
Unifrax FyreWrap System is a fully encapsulated flexible system for fire protecting ducts, particularly against grease based fires in galley extraction ducts and is designed to provide up to 2 hour fire rating. This flexible system needs zero clearance between itself and surrounding components.
FyreWrap systems have found extensive applications in:
- Military ships such as frigates, corvettes, aircraft carriers, submarines and coast guard vehicles
- Civil vehicles such as cruise ships, fast ferries, RoRo ferries, fishing vessels, super yachts, etc.
THERMAL INSULATION BLANKET PRODUCTS
Fiberfrax, Insulfrax and Isofrax Blanket products are highly efficient and flexible thermally insulating blankets available in a wide range of thickness and density combinations. Common applications include the lagging of hot service pipes for equipment and personnel protection and for energy conservation and heat shielding around diesel engine exhaust systems. These products are also ideally suited to fabrication into turbine insulation mattresses and for the insulation of exhaust ducts on gas turbine propulsion systems and on combined heat and power units.
WHEN FIRE PROTECTION MATTERS MOST
Used extensively on prestige vehicles, such as Pride of Hawaii and Norwegian Gem, you know tthat you can rely on Unifrax and FyreWrap for your passive fire protection requirements.
