Consolidated Insulation Services Ltd

• Power generation plants – this necessitates high-temperature thermal insulation in order to conserve heat
• Gas storage tanks and plants – this requires cryogenic and low-temperature thermal insulation to prevent heat gain and condensation
• Oil and chemical bulk storage tanks – special expertise is required for insulating large tanks, and CIS is second to none in this field, with the ability to supply and install the whole range of specifications available
• Chilled water units – insulated to MoD specifications
• Commercial HVACs

Sheet metal services

CIS has two fully-equipped sheet metal workshops that can manufacture and form virtually any shape required, from flange and valve boxes, to vessel cones and domes.

We fabricate and supply all key metals used in the insulation industry, including aluminium, aluzinc, plastisol, as well as galvanised and stainless steel. By constructing our sheet metal in-house, we save you time and money, while ensuring a quality product that meets the highest standards.

We also have sufficient machinery to provide us with the capability to set up on-site workshops on our larger projects throughout the UK.

Removable insulated jackets

CIS can design, supply and fit removable insulated jackets for a variety of applications, including inline equipment, actuators, exhaust systems, turbines, heat exchangers and vessels.

We can design and supply removable insulated jackets to meet your specifications, using the best up-to-date materials. CIS can work from your drawings, as well as conduct a comprehensive site survey of your system to ensure that you get the right specification and the right fit.

In addition, we can also provide an identification and tagging system for each cover, plus an on-site fitting service, offering savings in energy, labour and capital spending.

Our removable insulated jackets provide some key advantages over common rigid metal boxes, as follows:

• Ease of use – they are easy to remove and re-install for essential maintenance and inspection
• Less disruption – installation timing for removable flexible jackets is significantly less and ensures completion of installation prior to plant start-up, which avoids plant operation interference
• Avoids access problems – removable flexible jackets can provide a bespoke tailored solution for individual situations, e.g. restricted space areas
• Saving you money – fitting costs and materials used in removable flexible jackets are generally more cost-effective than metal boxes
• Space saving – when required on-site, removable flexible jackets provide the storage benefit of taking up significantly less volume and space, compared with rigid metal boxes; this offers a saving on expensive site costs

Electric trace heating

CIS can offer a professional service, from design to installation. This includes project and safety management, experienced trace heating installation, as well as a detailed engineer’s report issued upon completion. In addition, our comprehensive insulation services and trace heating solutions means CIS can supply you with the complete thermal protection package.

We can design, supply and install trace heating systems to protect against freezing, as well as process the heating of your system, for both safe and hazardous areas (zones one and two). This covers heat loss calculations, electrical loadings and power consumption measurements.

Whether you need to maintain constant temperatures, protect against freezing, or need process heating for your system, our electric trace heating service will meet your requirements.
