Why Choose Ceramic Fiber?
When your equipment runs hot, you can’t afford insulation that fails. Ceramic fiber is a proven high-temperature insulation solution that gives you dependable performance across industrial, commercial, and OEM applications.
Made from alumina and silica, ceramic fiber delivers unmatched heat resistance, low thermal conductivity, and strong chemical stability. Through specialized manufacturing, these fibers are spun or blown into blankets, boards, papers, and textiles that protect your equipment from temperatures reaching 2000°F to 3000°F (1093°C–1650°C).
If you work with industrial furnaces, commercial ovens, high-temperature ductwork, or hearth systems, ceramic fiber insulation helps you protect your equipment, reduce heat loss, and extend operational life.

Frequently Asked Questions
-
Ceramic fiber insulation is designed for high temperature environments where traditional materials can’t perform. It’s commonly used in industrial furnaces, ovens, kilns, ductwork, commercial kitchen equipment, hearth products, and thermal barriers which provides superior heat resistance and energy efficiency.
-
Ceramic fiber products can typically handle continuous service temperatures ranging from 2000°F to 3000°F (1093°C–1650°C), depending on the grade and composition. This makes them ideal for applications requiring reliable, long term insulation under extreme conditions.
-
Ceramic fiber insulation combines lightweight strength, low thermal conductivity, and excellent chemical stability. It helps reduce energy loss, withstands rapid temperature changes, and resists corrosion, all while being significantly lighter and easier to handle than traditional refractory materials.
-
Ceramic fiber comes in several versatile forms, including blankets, boards, papers, ropes, tapes, and vacuum formed shapes. Each type offers unique properties suited to specific temperature ratings, installation spaces, and mechanical requirements.
-
Unlike heavier refractory materials, ceramic fiber provides superior insulation efficiency with less weight and faster installation. It stores less heat, cools down quickly, and maintains structural integrity even after repeated exposure to extreme temperatures, saving you time, energy, and maintenance costs.
