Worker health & safety is an ongoing priority in many companies. Nansulate® coatings can help you address three important areas:

1) Burn injuries;
2) Hot working environments;
3) Building health quality

The entire coating line is low VOC, non-toxic and environmentally friendly, in addition to being cost effective by reducing energy costs. Read below for ways to solve employee safety issues easily and effectively.

Stop Burn Injuries
Paint on layers of liquid insulation to reduce surfaces to safe touch levels.

Nansulate® High Heat and Nansulate® EPX insulation coatings give you the ability to layer on coats of insulation in order to reach a desired employee safe touch level. Both can be applied while equipment is hot and running. The EPX can be applied in a thicker per coat application and cures faster, and the High Heat has a smooth finish, as opposed to pebbled, and applies with less overspray.

Download our Temperature Gradient Chart (Fahrenheit or Celsius) for use with High Heat (EPX chart coming soon) to see how many coats you need based upon your surface temperature.


Cool Working Areas
Equipment heat can cause work areas to become sweltering for employees.

Whether you're in a food sensitive environment, or a typical industrial area, Nansulate® insulation coatings can be used to reduce the  heat expelled from hot equipment, such as ovens, dyeing machines, curing molds, and more.  These working environments can become a danger to employee health, especially in the summer months, when environments can get well over 100F. Take steps now to reduce heat in  working areas, by coating the exterior of hot equipment with Nansulate®.
