Thermal Ceramics fibre modules are a unique solution to high temperature insulation needs in industrial heaters, boilers and furnaces as well as many other applications.  Thermal Ceramics manufactures a complete line of fibre module products featuring

Pyro-Bloc®, Pyro-Fold™ and Pyro-Stack™ designs

attachment anchoring systems
construction design services available for lining industrial furnaces

Thermal Ceramics exclusive Pyro-Bloc products have set the standard for quality and versatility in furnace lining systems. Pyro-Bloc modules are the only "monolithic" ceramic fibre modules on the market.  Manufactured from Pyro-Log, a monolithic ceramic fibre log, they are fabricated into modules that offer superior performance and durability.

Pyro-Bloc modules are available in uncompressed module densities up to 240kg/m3 (15 pcf) and in three grades:

• R Grade: alumina - silica
• ZR Grade: alumina - zirconia - silica
• C Grade: alumina - silica - chromia

Pyro-Bloc modules combine the insulating ma
