MATECO® 600 is a durable insulation solution for your systems and singular points, keeping them at a constant level of warmth and helping you to reduce your energy costs.

The MATECO® 600 is an extreme-temperature removable insulation jacket specifically designed to mitigate massive heat loss on critical industrial singular points operating up to 600°C continuously. Unlike standard thermal blankets, this high-performance shield utilizes a high-density rock wool core wrapped in a specialized high-temperature-treated glass fabric. Engineered for live steam networks, gas turbine exhausts, and cogeneration plants, this fully non-combustible (Euroclass A1) and reusable cover eliminates dangerous thermal bridges, drastically cuts energy costs, and ensures immediate personnel protection against severe contact burns in ultra-hot environments.

Engineering for Extreme Heat: High-Density Rock Wool Architecture

When dealing with temperatures exceeding 300°C, standard insulating materials rapidly degrade. The MATECO® 600 overcomes this thermodynamic threshold through a radically different internal architecture. The core relies on premium high-density rock wool rather than traditional glass wool. This material maintains its structural integrity and exceptional thermal resistance even when subjected to continuous 600°C radiant heat.

To withstand the aggressive nature of extreme-heat environments, the jacket is built with uncompromising mechanical specifications:

  • High-Temperature Glass Fabric: The exterior and interior envelopes are crafted from a specially formulated glass textile that resists thermal shock and prevents fiber shedding.
  • Stainless Steel Closure System: Extreme heat causes metal components to expand and contract. Our jacket uses heavy-duty stainless steel straps and metal buckles that maintain a tight, secure fit despite the severe thermal expansion and intense vibrations of high-pressure pipelines.
  • Absolute Fire Safety: Rated Euroclass A1 (M0), the entire matrix is completely incombustible, offering a passive fire protection layer for your most critical fluid networks.

Heavy Industrial Applications: Live Steam, Cogeneration, and Exhausts

Operating equipment at 600°C requires massive energy inputs. Leaving singular points like valves and flanges exposed at these temperatures results in catastrophic heat loss and severe inefficiencies. Deploying the MATECO® 600 yields an immediate, highly measurable return on investment by locking the thermal energy directly inside the process piping.

This heavy-duty insulation mattress is an essential upgrade for highly demanding sectors:

  • Live Steam Networks: Prevents premature steam condensation within valves and piping, ensuring high-quality dry steam reaches the end process, which is critical for food processing and paper mills.
  • Cogeneration and Biomass Plants: Maximizes the efficiency of heat recovery systems by eliminating thermal leaks on exhaust manifolds and superheated water lines.
  • Thermal Oil and Petrochemical Piping: Maintains stable high-temperature organic fluid flows, preventing localized cooling that could alter chemical viscosities.
  • Operator Safety: Drops the surface temperature of a 600°C valve down to safe handling levels, drastically reducing the risk of third-degree workplace burns.

Standardized Dimensions for High-Temperature Fluid Networks

Precision fitment is critical in extreme-temperature insulation; any gap can cause a dangerous localized heat leak. The MATECO® 600 range is fully standardized to wrap perfectly around industrial pipeline components, adapting to the complex geometries of control nodes while leaving mechanical handwheels and actuators freely accessible for plant operators.

Thermal Shielding for High-Pressure 2-Way and 3-Way Valves

Steam shut-off valves and thermal oil control valves are highly susceptible to energy radiation. We manufacture our extreme-heat covers to accommodate standard Nominal Diameters (DN). For 2-way valves, the MATECO® 600 sizing spans from the compact DN15/20 all the way to massive DN400 industrial mainline valves (up to 990 x 2040 mm). For multi-directional flow control, our 3-way valve jackets safely envelop sizes from DN15/20 to DN200/250. The stainless steel strapping ensures that even under the intense mechanical stress of high-pressure steam flow, the mattress remains hermetically secured to the valve body.

Extreme-Heat Covers for Flanges and Exchangers

Bare flanged joints in high-temperature systems act as massive radiator fins, bleeding energy into the ambient air. Our MATECO® 600 flange covers (ranging from DN15/20 to DN200/250) create a seamless, thermally stable envelope over the steel bolting, which also protects the metal from extreme thermal cycling that can lead to joint failure. Furthermore, we provide large-scale tailored mattress sets for high-temperature heat exchangers (with dimensions up to 1130 x 1410 mm). These covers ensure that critical heat transfer processes operate at peak thermodynamic efficiency, retaining maximum energy within the core of the exchanger.

It is a removable, heavy-duty industrial cover designed to insulate singular points like valves and flanges operating at extreme temperatures up to 600°C. It prevents massive energy losses and protects workers from severe burns.
While glass wool is excellent for standard heating, it degrades at extreme temperatures. High-density rock wool maintains its structural stability, volume, and insulating properties continuously at 600°C, making it essential for steam and exhaust networks.
Yes, it is specifically engineered for high-pressure live steam applications. By heavily insulating the valves and flanges, it prevents steam condensation within the network, ensuring maximum thermodynamic efficiency.
The MATECO 600 utilizes heavy-duty stainless steel straps and metal buckles. This ensures the jacket remains securely fastened despite the severe vibrations and metal thermal expansion common in high-temperature pipelines.
Absolutely. Despite their extreme thermal rating, these jackets remain highly flexible. Maintenance teams can unbuckle the stainless steel straps, remove the mattress for valve inspection, and reinstall it in minutes.
