Customers range from engineers and site-owners to on-site contractors and quality managers.

Insulation protection coatings and sealants

Temati is the sole European licensee for Foster® coatings, sealants and adhesives, which provide both weather and vapour-barrier protection for all insulation-types and systems. In addition to Foster, Temati supplies Kestopur and Kiiltoflex, IMO-certified sealants and adhesives specifically designed for cold and cryogenic conditions.

Ancillary glassfibre-reinforced plastic, foils and tapes

With practical know-how, Temati is able to provide technical solutions specially suited for each application. Depending on the project requirements, different protective systems can be supplied, such as glassfibre-reinforced plastic (GRP) and foils or tapes.

VaporStop foil (aluminium / PET), also known as Mylar foil, acts as the secondary vapour barrier and Tembutil IF™ (aluminium / butyl) as the primary vapour barrier.

Sprayable two-component PU-foam

Temati is Europe’s main distributor for Handi-Foam® products. The company provides a range of two-component sprayable PU-foam systems, which are available in different types and sizes.

Easy to carry and use, the Handi-Foam systems are supplied in high, low and standard density, making them the perfect product for flexible use in all insulation and construction applications. The high-density version Handi-Foam system is also suitable for high-end LNG applications such as insulating valve boxes.

Leak and corrosion-detecting flangebelts and plugs

Durability and safe-working are becoming more important issues every day, as is preventing corrosion under insulation (CUI). Temati supplies a range of products to protect people, equipment and environment, such as the Protectem™ flangebelt and vessel inspection plug (VIP) for leak and corrosion detection.

Fabrics for insulation mattresses and fire and welding protection

Temati has a wide range of technical fabrics under the name Temtex™, which are used in the fabrication of insulation mattresses and fire and welding protection. The fabrics can be supplied with different coatings such as silicone, PU or PFTE, or specially treated to withstand high temperatures (HT). Most Temtex fabrics are IMO-certified.
