Glastherm® (also known as Thermalite®)
   
 

The installation or upgrading of mould base or press platen insulation is one of the highest
returning investments a moulding operation can make today. Properly insulated molds require
less energy to operate. Adequate insulation also facilitates temperature regulation within the tool.

Glastherm® thermal insulating sheet is an excellent choice for mold insulation applications.
Offering significant advantages when compared with other materials such as mica, asbestos,
concrete or calcium silicate. Glastherm® sheet is an efficient thermal barrier and is strong to
resist the effects of moulding pressure and rough handling. Resistant to oil and water absorption,
it is completely asbestos-free.

   
 
   
 

Main Characteristics:

- High Hot Compressive Strength
- Low Thermal Conductivity
- Oil and Moisture Resistant
- Reduces Heat Loss
- Helps Control Temperature
