Product Overview
Thermal Insulation for Marine and Industrial Applications
Service Temp: -40°C to 649°C | Thickness: 25 mm – 102 mm
Our MFMB Boards are advanced resin-bonded fibreglass insulation panels designed specifically for marine and industrial thermal protection. These high-performance boards are engineered for use in ship hulls, decks, bulkheads, and other structural boundaries where insulation must endure high temperatures, mechanical vibrations, and moisture-prone conditions.
Product Construction & Finish
Core Material: High-density resin-bonded fibreglass wool
Top Facing: Laminated with Type E glass fibre cloth for a smooth, durable finish
Form Factor: Rigid insulation board – available in custom-cut sheets or panels
Thermal Performance
Thermal Conductivity: Low thermal conductivity ensures energy-efficient performance
Temperature Range:
Minimum operating temp: -40°C (ideal for cold environments like NZ marine decks)
Maximum service temp: Up to 649°C (1200°F)
Applications: Minimises heat transfer through steel hulls and bulkheads, reducing HVAC load in vessel compartments and offshore units
Fire & Safety Benefits
High fibre density supports passive fire resistance in shipboard environments
Non-combustible core helps maintain compartmental integrity during fire exposure
Vibration-resistant and dimensionally stable, even under thermal cycling
Moisture, Mould & Hygiene Control
Low water vapour absorption – helps prevent condensation and corrosion
Resists fungal or bacterial growth, meeting marine hygiene expectations
Ideal for high-humidity zones and cold surface applications where moisture control is critical
Common Applications
Insulation of marine hulls, decks, and fire-rated bulkheads
Engine room partitions and structural thermal separation in ships
Offshore platforms and oil rig modules requiring long-term high-temp insulation
Industrial zones with heavy mechanical vibration and high heat transfer paths
