55 News KD One's Ceratech Business Division Launched Flextherm, a High-Efficiency Industrial Insulation Material 2017-01-25 3661






KD One newly launched ‘Flextherm,’ a high-efficiency industrial insulation solution engineered based the company’s new NET-certified technology that delivers the same performance of microporous insulation products used in spaceships at a much lower cost.


Given the fact that ‘Flextherm’ is capable of maintaining outstanding insulation performance at 30~40% lower cost than previous products, KD One is looking to replace imported products and also export its products to overseas markets. Using the NET-certified “Insulation material reinforcement and molding technology using expansion-type Perlite/Silica powder” technology, ‘Flextherm’ uses Perlite, an eco-friendly and lightweight mineral material, to create its structural framework. This improved production technique allows KD One to lower production costs, while keeping insulation performance at previous levels. Moreover, the lattice quilting technique produces a structure that is similar in form to a blanket. This means the material is thin and supple, making it easy to install in tight spaces or on sections where people may need to detach the material from time to time.


The market response has already been overwhelming. Its combination of excellent insulation performance, great constructability, and low price, has prompted multiple construction companies to requested quotes regarding ‘Flextherm.’ Major power plants, including thermal power plants at Samcheonpo, Shinboryeong, Taean as well as petrochemical plants, including S-Oil’s plant in Onsan-eup, Ulsan, have already installed ‘Flextherm’ and are reaping the benefits of KD One’s advanced technology. As to why his company chose ‘Flextherm,’ one industry insider said, “It is more effective than previous products, and it’s thinner. That gives it the advantage of being easy to install. Also, you can install it anywhere regardless of the location, it is easy to detach and re-attach. The fact that it can be used in areas that require constant maintenance and repairs is its biggest advantage as a product.”


Roe YeonSang, the CEO of KD One, stated, “Much like its affiliate KyeongDong Navien, KD One has been working extremely hard to provide solutions capable of using energy more efficiently. We will continue to develop high-efficiency thermal insulation products like Flextherm to help save energy and protect our environment.
