Ceramic Fiber Board in Kenya
Ceramic fiber board in Kenya is a rigid, high-temperature insulation material used for furnace lining, fireproofing, and industrial thermal protection. Need insulation that won’t melt, crack, or fail under intense heat? Ceramic fiber board is the solution. At Bioflex Insulation Ltd, we supply high-performance ceramic fiber boards designed to withstand temperatures up to 1260°C, making them ideal for furnace linings, kilns, boilers, ovens, and industrial fireproofing across Kenya and East Africa.
Our boards offer rigid support, low thermal conductivity, and superior strength—perfect for both primary insulation and as back-up thermal layers.
What is Ceramic Fiber Board?
Ceramic fiber board is a rigid insulation panel made from alumina-silica ceramic fibers blended with inorganic binders. It is:
- Rigid and easy to cut
- Lightweight yet dense
- Fireproof and non-combustible
- Thermally stable up to 1260°C (and higher grades on request)
Compared to ceramic blankets or cloth, it offers structural strength, allowing it to be used as walls, liners, or barriers in high-temperature environments.
At Bioflex Insulation Ltd, we supply ceramic fiber board in Kenya for furnaces, kilns, boilers, and high-temperature industrial applications.
Common Applications of Ceramic Fiber Board in Kenya
1. Furnace and Kiln Lining
Used in:
- Ceramic kilns
- Incinerators
- Boilers
- Heat treatment ovens
It acts as a hot face lining or backup insulation in high-heat environments.
2. Fireproofing and Heat Shields
Due to its non-combustible properties, ceramic fiber board is used in:
- Fire doors and escape wall systems
- Fireproof partitions and barriers
- Heat shields behind stoves, burners, or welding stations
3. Back-up Insulation in Refractory Systems
Ceramic board is layered behind fire bricks, castables, or refractory cement to:
- Improve energy retention
- Reduce wall thickness
- Lower external surface temperatures
- Prevent thermal loss in steel and glass manufacturing
4. High-Temperature Gasket & Component Machining
The board can be cut into custom gaskets, baffles, support pieces, or plugs in:
- Boilers
- Heat exchangers
- Flue systems
- Metal foundries
