Tailored & Mat Supplies, a leader in the manufacturing of high-quality thermal and acoustic insulation jackets, recently completed a successful project for a major data centre. The project required custom solutions to address the unique challenges of insulating large Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) units, silencers, and associated pipework in a demanding external environment. This case study highlights how Tailored & Mat Supplies delivered an innovative and effective insulation solution that not only met but exceeded the client’s expectations.
Background:
The client, a major data centre, required insulation for large SCR units, silencers, and associated pipework located on an exposed roof. These components are critical for the operation of the facility, necessitating a robust solution that could provide both thermal and acoustic insulation while enduring the harsh external conditions.
Scope:
Tailored & Mat Supplies was tasked with designing and installing a double-layer insulation jacketing system that would fully cover the units. The system needed to provide effective thermal and acoustic insulation while being practical to install, remove, and maintain. Additionally, the insulation had to withstand all weather conditions, ensuring long-term durability and performance.
Challenges:
One of the key challenges was the need for the insulation jackets to be easily maneuverable and straightforward to fit, despite the complexity and size of the equipment. Given the exposed location on the roof, the solution also needed to be resilient against a range of weather conditions, including extreme temperatures, wind, and precipitation.
Result:
The project was completed successfully, with the client expressing high satisfaction with the outcome. The insulation jackets not only met the functional requirements but also demonstrated excellent durability and ease of use. As a result of this success, the client has continued to engage Tailored & Mat Supplies for ongoing similar projects, solidifying a strong working relationship.
