The idea
Aerogel sheets target industrial heat losses.
Why this is interesting
- Heat lost from pipes and equipment is an energy cost for plants. A thin, high-performance insulation is most useful where space, temperature or maintenance access make conventional materials hard to use.
- The source is Speciale Invest’s note on why it invested in Dashamlabs, so the company is an example of the approach. Its list of applications describes where the company expects to sell, not demand confirmed with buyers.
Possible starting points
Heat-loss audit to retrofit
Pair heat-loss measurement with retrofit recommendations in one industry so savings can be shown before purchase.
Installer support
Train and supply the insulation contractors who would handle a new material on site.
Questions to answer
- Who decides insulation purchases in a plant: maintenance, energy or procurement teams?
- Does the saving pay back quickly enough to justify replacing insulation that still works?
