LIT Industries, Inc. is proud to be a Partner/Fabricator of Aspen Aerogels™, manufacturer of revolutionary insulation materials made from nanoporous aerogel, the world's best thermal insulator. These materials are available in an advantageous flexible form for service temperatures from -460°F (-273°C) to 1200°F (649°C). This wide range enables the insulation to perform in low, high and dual temperature applications.

Aerogels have a broad range of applications: Commercial Cooking Equipment, Building and Construction, Processing Industries, LNG Ships, Storage and Transfer Systems, Removable Insulation Covers, heat shielding solutions for the Transportation industry, Military and Aerospace, and more.

The advantages of Aerogels are numerous:

  • Two to eight times the insulation value for the same thickness compared to traditional materials
  • Extremely thin profile, which increases internal volume within tight spaces (more usable area for the same footprint)
  • Easy fabrication
  • Environmental friendliness: Aspen Aerogels support the Green movement
  • Excellent resistance to flame spread and smoke emission
  • Lighter weight than other insulation materials on an installed basis
  • Hydrophobicity: Aerogels have outstanding resistance to moisture

As a Partner/Fabricator, LIT Industries is equipped to fabricate this material to your specifications. Their precision die cutting, laminating, slitting-sheeting and encapsulating capabilities can meet your most demanding specifications.
