From a Local VIP Maker to a Global LNG Thermal Solutions Supplier: The VacuEco Supertech VPU Story

Nearly 20 years of vacuum-insulation expertise now powering cryogenic insulation for LNG carriers.

LNG carriers are known as the tiaras of shipbuilding for their extreme technical complexity. As the global supply chain matures, core components — cryogenic steel, cargo pumps, navigation systems — have already been localized. But shipowners and shipyards now expect more than a workable insulation system: they want higher thermal efficiency, better tank-volume utilization, and more stable long-term performance. Conventional systems in Mark III, NO96 membrane-type vessels and self-supporting tank external insulation are approaching their limits in thermal conductivity, thickness, and boil-off control at -162°C.

0.012 W/(m·K) Thermal Conductivity, 0.48 Resilience Coefficient: Inside the LNG Elastic Blanket Engineered for Storage Tank Performance

How a high-resilience glass-fiber blanket protects the -162°C inner tank from thermal stress across decades of LNG service.

When LNG enters at -162°C, the inner tank contracts sharply; perlite settles into the gaps. During warm-up, the compacted perlite has nowhere to move and exerts heavy lateral pressure on the inner-tank wall — a cycle that can buckle thin-wall steel over decades. Insulation must therefore satisfy five critical requirements: ultra-low thermal conductivity (≤0.08 W/(m·K) fo...

The Furnace Is 30 Metres Away, Yet the Heat Is Still Intense: Solving the Insulation Challenge in Steel Mill Control Rooms

Why walls and glass both leak heat — and how vacuum insulation technology blocks both routes at once

The furnace sits just 30 metres away. There is a wall in between — and a pane of glass. The air conditioning runs 24 hours a day, yet the moment an operator approaches the observation window, a wave of heat hits them. The issue is not an undersized AC unit or an insufficient power budget: heat is entering through both walls and glazing, but only one route has been addres...

≤0.0018 W/(m·K) in a laser-welded SUS304 shell — Passive House-level insulation that survives sea freight, salt spray, and CUI risk.

Heat gets through in four main ways: conduction through solids, conduction through gas molecules, gas convection, and thermal radiation. Conventional fibrous insulation slows solid conduction, but gas convection and molecular collisions still happen. Vacuum insulation takes a different route: evacuate the core to an ultra-high vacuum and cut out gas conduction and conve...
