Foams are an essential consideration when optimising the operation of air conditioning systems (ACS) in heating and heat pumps, ventilation and air conditioning in both acoustic and thermal terms. This is because they offer excellent thermal and sound insulation properties, which ultimately contribute to the efficiency of an air conditioning system and ensure comfort during operation.
We develop bespoke foam solutions with you for thermal insulation and sound insulation to make the operation of air conditioning systems as quiet and efficient as possible.
Our services: We supply manufacturers of components for air conditioning systems with bespoke foam moulded parts, cuts and sealing strips. We can draw on a wide range of materials and offer numerous finishing options – such as skins and coatings.
Precisely-fitting solutions are usually hard to find, which is why we manufacture the optimal thermal and acoustic foam solution for your system.
Thermal insulation: In air conditioning systems, foams prevent unwanted heat loss and minimise temperature fluctuations. This helps to maximise the energy efficiency of heating and air conditioning systems, thus reducing energy consumption and operating costs over the long term. That is good not only for the environment, but also for your wallet.
Sound insulation: The excellent sound-absorbent properties of foams can significantly reduce loud, annoying running noise from ventilation and air conditioning systems. This is not least due to a reduction in vibration and sound transmission. This creates a quieter, more comfortable environment, even in houses with no basement with a machinery room integrated into the living level. This is important, and not only in living environments. In office spaces as well, low-noise air conditioning system operation is essential for an optimal working environment.
Durability and resistance: High-quality foams offer high levels of resistance to moisture, chemicals and mechanical stresses. These properties contribute to the durability and reliability of air conditioning systems. The use of foams therefore has a “side effect” of reducing maintenance costs and requirements.
Operating safety and fire behaviour: Foams for air conditioning systems must meet high standards in terms of fire protection. For this reason, only flame-retardant foams are used. These are tested for low smoke emissions and self-extinguishing properties. They therefore make a decisive contribution to operating safety by minimising the risk of fire. In the event of a fire, they prevent or slow down the spread of flames and toxic gases. This ensures that the heating, ventilation or air conditioning system can be used safely and increases protection for people and buildings.
Individual moulded parts: The excellent flexibility and adaptability of foams enables bespoke processing and the precise manufacturing of different components and moulded parts for air conditioning systems. Even complex structures for hard-to-reach areas can be cut or milled in great detail, thus ensuring comprehensive, effective insulation.
In summer, the use of foams in air conditioning systems improves heating efficiency as well as acoustic performance. The versatility, durability and adaptability of foams make them an indispensable part of modern heating, ventilation and air conditioning systems, which are designed to provide the highest efficiency and comfort.
