Block Insulation drives costs down by shortening the time to assemble/disassemble insulations, significantly reduces the repair works and improves worker’s safety.
“Guide System” indicates the correct positioning of insulations during assembly and disassembly to workers.
A Storage Rack can also be supplied that allows workers to store the removed insulation pieces and later on finding them with ease during assembly.
