Steel ladles play a crucial role in the steelmaking process, transporting molten steel between different stages of production, but high heat losses in every stage of the production can affect quality and increase energy costs. Promat Microporous insulation have extremely low thermal conductivity, making them highly effective in minimizing heat losses, preventing steel temperature drops, boosting energy efficiency, and extending ladle lifespan by reducing outer shell temperatures. This ensures consistent steel quality and reduces operational costs, enhancing overall production efficiency.

Steelmaking demands advanced thermal insulation to enhance efficiency, cut energy costs, and reduce environmental impact. High-quality insulation minimizes heat loss in processes over 1600°C, optimizing energy use and ensuring reliable output. Promat’s high-performing microporous and vermiculite backup lining materials offer effective solutions for energy savings in extreme temperatures, supporting a more efficient steelmaking process.
