Aerogel Granules
Product Type:
Aerogel granules is a high-performance bulk nanotechnology material used for thermal insulation and fire protection across an exceptionally wide temperature range, from cryogenic applications to high industrial temperatures.
Composed of particles with a calibrated particle size (0–4 mm), this material boasts exceptional porosity and low density.
Thanks to an infinitesimal thermal conductivity coefficient, aerogel granules offers insulation performance that is unmatched by traditional materials.
Its chemical and physical properties ensure super-hydrophobicity, excellent resistance to thermal shock and a thermal expansion coefficient that is virtually zero.

Aerogel Granules Applications
Aerogel granules is an extremely versatile product, used as a raw material or performance-enhancing additive for:
- Thermal mortars and plasters: an ultra-lightweight additive for the production of cementitious composites or lightweight skim coats with very high insulating properties;
- Thermal paints and coatings: incorporation into technical paints and industrial coatings to reduce radiant heat;
- Cavity insulation: cavities in industrial furnaces, boilers, tanks and structures with complex geometries that cannot be insulated with rigid panels;
- Cryogenic systems: loose insulation of double-walled pipes and tanks for the transport and storage of liquefied gases at very low temperatures;
- Industrial maintenance: filling of technical insulation voids and expansion joints subject to significant temperature fluctuations.
Why Choose Aerogel Granules
Choosing aerogel granules means relying on a material that guarantees:
- Reduction in transport loads: reduction in the weight of structures and transported loads;
- Prevention of corrosion under insulation: thanks to its vapour permeability and superhydrophobicity, it allows internal metal surfaces to ‘breathe’, preventing moisture build-up and protecting systems from corrosion.
