Aerogel Insulation Solutions

In 2026, urban heating efficiency is the ultimate decarbonization goal. Hebei Woqin’s 10mm Aerogel Blanket delivers 7x the performance of traditional rock wool at half the thickness. Engineered for the harshest winters (up to -40°C), our 0.02 W/(m·K) hydrophobic solution prevents "wet-insulation failure" and cuts payback periods to under 3 years. Upgrade your network, stop the waste.


The Crisis Beneath Our Feet Every winter, up to 30% of district heat vanishes through sagging rock wool and water-logged glass fiber. In cramped urban trenches, there simply isn't enough space for the 150mm of traditional insulation required by 2026 standards. Hebei Woqin’s Aerogel Blanket solves the "Space vs. Efficiency" puzzle.


Why Aerogel Replaces Legacy Insulation (The Data):

The "1:7" Ratio: A 10mm Woqin Aerogel blanket provides the same thermal resistance as 70mm of rock wool.

Hydrophobic Protection: With a contact angle >150°, our felt remains dry even in flooded manholes. (Traditional wool loses 50% efficiency when damp).

Life Extension: Designed for a 50-year service life, matching the lifespan of the steel pipes themselves.


Field-Proven ROI: The 2025-2026 Harbin Case In a recent retrofit of 42km of secondary heating lines:

Before: 22% heat loss, surface temperatures >60°C.

After Woqin 8mm Wrap: Heat loss fell to 7%, surface temp <35°C.

Economic Result: Saved 38,000 GJ/year. The project paid for itself in 2.8 years through coal savings alone.


2026 Installation Advantage: No Scaffolding, No Downtime Our flexible polyimide-crosslinked backbone allows teams to wrap valves, elbows, and flanges without complex cutting. A single crew can insulate 300m of DN200 pipe in one shift—4x faster than traditional cladding.


2026 Factory Direct Pricing (FOB Tianjin):

5mm / 10mm Aerogel Blanket: Competitive tiered pricing for municipal projects.

Pre-formed Aerogel Sleeves: Custom sizes for fast-track "Coal-to-Gas" transitions.
