Alongside our quotation, our Clients receive energy calculations for each piece of equipment to be insulated. What parameters are required to perform such a calculation? Input data such as operating temperatures and ambient temperatures are determined during an on-site inspection carried out by our technicians using, among other tools, a...
Technology in detail – how insulation determines success
The perfect fit of thermal insulation covers to industrial installations is a detail that determines the energy efficiency of entire production plants. At first glance, insulation may seem to be simply “something” applied to pipes, valves, or tanks to reduce heat losses. In practice, however, success lies in the details....
Thermal insulation covers in industry
Thermal insulation covers in industry are an important component designed to improve energy efficiency and safety in various industrial processes. Below are several key aspects regarding their application: Thermal insulation: Thermal insulation covers are used to insulate pipes, tanks, boilers, and other heat-conducting equipment. They help reduce heat losses, which...
BEFORE AND AFTER
We usually present photos from completed installations, showing already insulated equipment. Today, for comparison, we present one such unit before and after the installation of the insulation jacket. In this project, our task was to manufacture SUM Maintenance Guard jackets for valves located in a boiler room. The safety valve...
Let’s take a look at how the covers look after several years of use.
Another recently completed successful project in a production facility? Yes and no… Successful, most definitely – but its completion date was 2022. The covers still look like new, with no significant signs of wear, despite being removed and refitted at least once a week in practice. We recently had the...
What information is required to prepare a quotation?
We approach each quotation individually. We do not have a standard price list, so each customer enquiry requires pricing to be determined for the specific scope. Every technical installation has its own unique shape and complex geometry. In our quotation, we take into account all parameters present in the specified...
Busy summer holidays
Summer holidays, despite their name, are a very busy period for companies such as SUM Poland. Many industrial plants schedule maintenance and production shutdowns during this time. We make use of these downtime windows to install our thermal insulation covers. Simply put, it is easier and safer to work on...
Why SUM Guard covers?
Why do Clients so readily choose our SUM Guard thermal insulation covers? Here are three reasons! EXPERIENCE – for over 18 years, SUM Guard covers have been proving their effectiveness every day on valves, installations, and industrial equipment in Poland and abroad. PRECISION – we design using the latest CAD...

Example of savings
We are proud to showcase this! 👏 Another interesting project has been completed. This time, the installation of thermal insulation covers took place, among other locations, at a water station. It is already another order from this client. After the first stage, having seen the results in the form of...
