Today both diatomite bricks, calcium silicate and vermiculite boards are widely used in various types of furnaces and/or kilns within all types of processes in the iron and steel industry.
The Iron and Steel Industry furnaces and kilns can benefit from installing Skamol products as back-up insulation in the high temperature kilns. The superb thermal conductivity of the products is an important factor to conserve energy and to secure a good thermal efficiency in the furnace.
